I will say this before I go to sleep. How many escapists here smoke week? is it illegal in your country? mostly likely yes. And how hard is it for you to get it? Not very.Fenring said:
The exact same thing would happen with firearms. Don't ever forget it. the second firearms are "illegal" I'll buy them up like alot of you buy up weed.

See when thing become "illegal" the worse of the batch are easier to acquire. Like today, for me to get a fully automatic rifle would cost upwards of $16,000 dollars. But on the lesser markets, all you have to do is file the trigger sear and it would cost less than $400.
It's all relative in the argument. Neither of us will ever win, but I do believe that we both should voice our beliefs on the matter.
Honestly its a fucking democracy and the government isn't going to be doing any oppressing so I'd say that people who claim to need to be able to bear arms against the government are the ones who need a damn sight more watching than the government. (Not that government oversight is unnecessary but such things can be DONE PEACEFULLY.)

I think it should be pretty much illegal to own guns with the possible exceptions of low-capacity handguns for self defense and hunting weapons. We might not be able to prevent dangerous criminals and crazies from obtaining weapons but we should at least discourage them from obtaining military-grade hardware. And ordinary civilians do not need assault weapons.

You're sick of that argument? Well here's a more resonable one then: your government is not going to oppress you to some cartoony "V For Vendetta" level so the Second Amendment is completely obsolete and redundant.
In fact, if recent developments are anything to go by, apparently the common American should now have access to whatever firearms they like so they can simply murder anyone they disagree with. Because, you know, apparently democracy and the rule of law is overrated.

Total bullshit actually. To oppress the people the trick isn't keeping them from defending themselves, the trick is keeping them from uniting against you by making them fight among themselves. More total bullshit, guns are not a great protection. They're single function tools, only useful to people who have had proper training. With a lot of people they are more of a liability than a form of home defense.frozen_scarecrow said:
