and that right there is WHY they will never go away. You aren’t Wrong, you dinged the bell of human nature. Name a creature who wouldn’t want an advantage like that?
Its unfortunate that humans treat one another so poorly that iron turned to bronze turned to steel turned to bullets.
but, a history book need only tell you why americans arm up. The Spanish in the south and French in the north started americas fires, then the 13 colonies showed up a time later, further embellishing the need for a gun. the west, where life was worth but the cost of a bullet and has since, remained. Manifest Destiny was not to be a friendly acquisition nor was it. What I’m saying is America is built on the sword and blood of losers. No one here wants to be marginalized. civil forfeiture, Debt…what makes a human feel in control again? a gun…
Okay I guess. I personally like just being able to live my life without almost getting shot every couple of hours. I have a friend who basically sounds exactly like you and lives in Texas, he also told me that he hears gunshots around him like multiple times a day. Forgive me but that doesn’t sound particularly appealing.
Now its domestic threats, The police gang, the black man, the rich man north of richmond, drug addicts, whatever 24hr news media is spinning up to keep numbers up. Combine it with internet echo chambers where the 1% think they are the 100, you got a nice stew for all kinds of horror.

Isn’t having a crazy powerful military enough? The Spanish and French aren’t about to set fires in the US anymore.
