Why not just get rid of firearms completely?

    Yeah, this is America (Woo, ayy)

    Guns in my area (Word, my area)

    I got the strap (Ayy, ayy)

    I gotta carry 'em

    I’m surprised that song didn’t anger gun owners.

    In a country with more guns than people, that's like saying you're surprised people with a driver's license don't all drive F350 super duty's...

    Even worse, because when push comes to literal shove, the people with the most guns make the decisions. January 6th should have proved that if nothing else did, if they had showed up with guns they'd have accomplished their goals easily.

    Don't take it for granted that America will never need another revolution, or that a couple thousand armed people can't accomplish anything.

    Fuck man, now more than ever it's the responsibility of every good American to own and be proficient with a rifle.

    Take a fucking look around, you think trump is handing the White House to anyone in 2.5 years?

    Buy a fucking rifle while you can if you haven't already, or at least stop shit talking people who take logical precautions with our current reality.

    Well one would take a single federal law to change. Simple majority and signed by the president. The other requires 2/3rds of congress to agree or 2/3rds of states to agree. Nearly impossible
