    You’re missing the point. We don’t need to justify to the government why we need to do anything. The government needs to justify to us why it should be prohibited. Feeling justified in your own actions doesn’t come into it.

    As for “the most evil shit in history”, it should be extremely easy for the government to justify prohibiting it.

      To any reasonable person it is extremely easy to justify prohibiting easy access to firearms. And yet here we are, with mass shootings happening every other day in the US.

        That’s pretty funny, does that include your political enemies?

        From my pov government is “just people” like the rest of us, they just happened to be elected by a bunch of trash toddlers to be “head trash toddler #24.”
