If you look at the groups brutalized by the government, including blacks, Hispanics, leftists, and peasents in central America, they all have something in common. They have far lower gun ownership rates than the less victimized groups like whites and the right.

Now, maybe the guns didn't do anything either way, but the data correlates pretty strongly with the people with guns being brutalized less than the people without them. It certainly isn't leading to the conclusion you seem to be aiming at. Even the people in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising bought a few extra hours before getting gassed because of their (smuggled) guns.

Ergo 1A advocates are larpers.

i know someone who is a single issue voter for guns.

he owes $33k after having a kid with crappy insurance. I asked him how guns would help and started on a rant about slippery slopes bla bla bla

I’m not even unsympathetic to the guns rights people. I just can’t square the. “We need guns to fight tyranny” with the constant screaming of “we’re falling into communism/fascisim/etc.” screeching s been doing since they learned those worlds.
