28. Difference. The american troubles will be exceptional with so many guns and ammo.

Thu Jun 30, 2022, 03:28 PM

Jun 2022

Watching the Ulvade horror, even our finest (sarcasm) didn't want to face up to a lone 18yo.

I know some say that the US military, if called out, can take out any 18yo easily. But if these traitors are acting as terrorists, they won't be a unified force that can be napalmed or stunned with our modern weapons.

Our major problem is allowing everyone to have access to violently lethal weaponry. PERIOD.

This mindset has been foisted on us by:
1. enemies of this democracy - foreign and home-grown
2. weaponry manufacturers
3. people who fear other people - paranoids
