I'm not American,

I'm not in the US,

I've never even held, let alone owned, a hand gun.

 

I've never seen the need.

 

Until now.

 

If I could legally buy and carry, I would.  Which will tell you what I think of the way the world is going.

Funny I could have sworn that Trump was a Republican - Here are the facts and look at which party controls that city.

I can remember riding in a car with an American in Philadelphia. He owned 23 firearms. When I asked him why he needed so many, he said he would do his bit when the Commies invaded. I wonder what rationalisation he uses now.

What does this have to do with anything?  Is Trump the President of the entire United States or only Republican states?

There are so many conspiracy theories, I could be almost anything

You can legally obtain a gun in Thailand under the right circumstances.  Trouble is that the laws governing lethal force are different here.  Concealed carry?  Not unless you're very special.  So if you had a gang of guys chasing you with the intent to cause you grievous bodily harm and you shot someone?  You'd go to jail.  Overall though, I personally feel much safer in Thailand than I ever did in the US where I used to pack.  However with the current economic downturn?  Our neighbour just experienced a home invasion.  Some guy attempting to break into the home when only a 90+ year old woman was at home - screaming.  But, the anti-gun crowd imho are probably rooting for the poor guy attempting to violently break in to the house.

Yeah, Chicago is a third-world war-zone with just an insane number of black-on-black murders.  A weekend body count looks like something out of 'Nam during the Tet Offensive. And it's a completely Democrat stronghold.  But it's Trump's fault.  Ah-huh.  ????

He probably was a collector and simply was leading you on for fun.  The anti-gun crowd, especially foreigners from commonwealth countries are really a hoot when they get indignantly triggered about US 2A proponents.

I stopped my anti gut belief when I read that most personal gun deaths are among friends and family.

I guess that really means folks seem to like to vote for crazy, unbalanced and dangerous people who are serial liars and therefore need protection from the crazy and dangerous liars they voted for. 

In a age where Antifa, Blacks Lives Matter beserkers, hired thugs rotating from city to city to instigate arson & looting while the police are told to stand down and being defunded while livelihoods, businesses, and families are being destroyed....All in a concerted effort to disrupt/defeat an election by making people afraid....

 

Yep - people aren't idly  standing by waiting to be victims....They're making their stand.....That 911 call just can't be counted on anymore.....

If you can't see the world becoming more violent and dangerous then you must be either very naive, have some very rose tinted glasses or imbibing something strong. Or any combination.

Trump wins: Gun sales goes up.
