@quesovert@liberty_lyss@CTFlyMonkey@AlienAssJuice@TristanSnell Define well trained?
The US military is often considered well trained but have had numerous friendly fire incidents.
Does well trained mean you can operate your weapon and not kill people you don't intend to kill, if so aren't most citizens well trained?
@TheGenCatton I do think you're cowards. That's why you need guns. Even that girl in this thread says it's too compensate for size and because she's afraid for her safety.
@CTFlyMonkey@liberty_lyss@AlienAssJuice@TristanSnell What a terrible argument. You are insane if you don't think people should require proper training to operate equipment defined exclusively to kill. Don't have to be a forklift expert to know that training is required. What a moron.
@quesovert@liberty_lyss@AlienAssJuice@TristanSnell Please state your credentials firearms knowledge and expertise to determine what is "reasonable"...
Non-experts who are hostile to firearms should not determine what is reasonable, any more than I should determine what is "reasonable" safety for a nuclear power plant.
@quesovert@CTFlyMonkey@liberty_lyss@TristanSnell Article 1 in the Constitution gives congress the power to call the militia into action during the time of war and shall train and provide arms. That’s it. The people are free to regulate themselves under the 10th.
@quesovert@liberty_lyss@AlienAssJuice@TristanSnell "Well regulated" in the language of the day meant "well trained and equipped", not "controlled".
Also that is a dependent clause and has no impact on the independent clause "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Just simple third-grade grammar.
@quesovert@liberty_lyss@CTFlyMonkey@TristanSnell You do realize the governments regulatory power when it comes to the militia is limited to a few items outlined in the Constitution. You may want to read it. The people on the other hand are free to own without restrictions.
From anyone/thing that intends to harm me.
Someone else with a gun or a knife. Someone with a hammer. A wild hog. An abusive ex. A stalker. A group of men intending to assault me.
Not everyone has the luxury of being able to call the police and have them show up in time 💁🏻♀️
@quesovert@CTFlyMonkey@TristanSnell One is preferred by women like me because it is easier to handle and looks “scarier” to people like you who don’t know much about firearms.
