#1205 this is more fun then when the guy on TV says the winning lottery number. Your number, to be exact.
Times have changed tho. So has war. Arming the American people wouldn’t stop an attack on America by a foreign power. It didn’t stop a terrorist attack 20 years ago. Nor will arming the people prevent a civil war. It would just make it more devastating.
When will you boys learn, guns, missiles, warships, nuclear bombs, etc. will only ever bring death and destruction. Not peace and safety. Wether it be on a small or large scale.
He is literally too obtuse to understand the simple concept.
We openly tell him it has NOTHING to do with being invaded and the first few words of his reply are ‘arming the American people wouldn’t stop an invasion’
He’s not worth talking to he’s probably a kid

Again, we are not talking about invasion by a foreign power. That would currently be nearly impossible. We are talking about a takeover by a tyrannical person or government, which is a threat all free people through history have been menaced with. Against that an armed and determined citizenry is the strongest deterrent. Just use common sense, and look at wars like Vietnam and the multiple Afghanistan wars by powers such as Great Britain, the USSR, and the USA for an example of what such resistance would be like to quell.
Honestly if you want to keep your house safe in an area where people aren't on drugs, just get an "in guns we trust" flag. Id think thrice about entering in there if i were a burglar.

Bearing in mind a tyrant being classified as an unelected official trying to take power or keep power possibly after being voted out.
