Open Carry in the US

[Darkcrusader]

I'm sure that won't backfire.

[Cryptonic]

I think it's more appropriate to show the gun instead of conceal it, tbh. Although, I prefer no guns.

Sure, but that still won't make people actually walk around with them like GTA thugs. I just belive it might backfire even more and increase the crime rate, but hey, it's just my opinion, I won't be the one who will have to suffer if something goes wrong.

[Cryptonic]

How would it increase crime rate

[Yukitaka Oni]

Just live like Stalin. People maybe hate government but the crime rate is very low.
- or just like USA, police hate civilian instead

[Darkcrusader]

Because there are a lot of unstable people who might think they need a gun to be safe at any cost. Let's also say the police might think he's a criminal just because he owns a gun and shoots him. This might be a theoretical situation, but I don't know.
Also, there are people who don't allow guns in private domains, and you just come up with a gun, being an accident waiting to pop up. I don't know, but I wouldn't feel safe, and who knows what other people might do if they'd feel threatened from seeing someone with a gun.

But.... those people already conceal carry, what does it matter if they carry it in the open. At least if it were in the open, the police would know what they're dealing with and can see if they're reaching for the gun.

[SparkNuts]

There are already plenty of areas that have allowed open carry for a long time and they usually have less crime.

[Darkcrusader]

Well, I guess you'd be able to draw it faster if it's out in the open. Okay, I might have named the thread with the wrong name, it should have been gun laws in Us, rather than open carry, but I just found out it's about or got voted so I wanted to make this thread to see what people who live there think about it. I still am against it, don't get me wrong, even if I don't live there and got nothing to do with it.

I dislike the idea that people can have guns that aren't for the purpose of hunting animals.

Even there, accidents happen and some people can get shot at.

People can fall/jump off bridges, too. Should we ban bridges?

A brigde isn't something that can be used to intended to be used as a weapon, sure you can say that about many other things like buildings, high altitude points, even poisoning, but a firearm is designed to kill someone/ something. I mean they're used in assaults, murders, threats and other acts of violence, that's why they should be banned.

[Cryptonic]

What above knives? Knives are used in assaults, murders, threats and other acts of violence.
But good luck cutting thru a steak without one.

I am against people carrying around hand guns or possessing SMGs, but to hunting equipment doesn't make sense to me.

I dont really understand this argument. If something was originally created as a weapon it should be banned even if it has other uses that don't involve killing people?

I'm not saying take it away since they're mostly used by law enforcement, but don't just give it to any civilian just because he want to own it. I don't want them to be completely banned, just taken away from public use.

I'm not againts knives , and they're not the only things that can be used and murder weapons, you can use anything made of iron or sharp enough if you think about it. I''m not against hunting equipment, I was just saying that sometimes accidents happen, even in on hunting trips because fire arms are in general dangerous, even those who use blank shots.

Many women died at the point of having sexual intercourse with him. He might be a cum-whale, or a destroyer of men and product placement whore, but his gun is always loaded.

[Bunny]

I agree with crypt. You don't need a gun for protection. Just hunting. And even then if you were a real man you'd just rip apart the animal with your bare hands

[Bruno]

only pussies cant defend against a weapon of some time with their hands

its simple knowledge tbh i took a self defense class last year

depending on the range u can fight back

shotgun 2 back of head? just swing around, hug your arm around the barrel so it's pointing straight behind u if he shoots itll recoil and hurt u like a cunt and prob burn u but ur not ded

same goes 4 if gun in front, just lift it up, duck, and hit the guy in the nose


pistol? same thing, just grab the slide and force it away from you and proceed 2 beat the shit out of the guy


it all comes down 2 reflexes

[SparkNuts]

The entire purpose of the 2nd amendment and the right to bear arms is so the citizens have a way to protect themselves against a government gone wild. If you take away the right of normal citizens to own guns and only allow the people of authority to have them, you are giving them complete control over you. It is much harder for a Hitler, Stalin or Castro type dictator to take control of a country if the citizens are armed and able to defend themselves.

It is much better to have the 2nd amendment and not need it then the other way around.

That's why you don't put your gun on the body of another person like a dumb ass.

Only exception is that if they are restrained.

To add on to that, when your attacker has a gun to you, he believes he has already won. This is your advantage. The second you make a move, he will either be too startled to defend himself or fire instinctively. Both will stun him long enough for you to drive your elbow into his jaw.

Unless he's a trained killer. Then you never had a chance.

[Slaol]

As a Texas, I support legislature to replace my hands with guns, and my enemies brains with my bullets.

[Yukitaka Oni]

As a commy i trust Cheka and KGB to hold the gun instead

Gun for people= better chance for gangster firearms
More gangster = more money taken away from good
Citizen
More war between government and gangsters = government investing more money on police = more tax
Keep going and at the end you find out one thing
-> Government encourage (blood money)

Literally anything can be used as a weapon.

Just because something is banned, doesn't mean it still can't be used. All it means is that only the law abiding citizens won't have Guns. Then guess what..? Criminals won't mind sneaking in Guns because they don't care about the law in the first place.
