I really have no use for either. I guess I will go with keeping pot. Keep those people out of jail for silly reasons. Although without guns we would be easy to take over. Do the military get to keep guns?
Now that I wouldn't agree with, especially if there were no black market. Take away the guns from everyone but the military and see how fast this country goes to shit.
Explain this to me then.
America, is the only country where guns are allowed to the general public.
YET, it's the most unstable and corrupt country in existance. Hell, the US already went to shit.
It's one of those countries you would have to be mentally ill for to actually want to live in.
Back to the topic, theoretically, if America didn't already go to shit, which it did, how would guns keep it in place?
Well you must not be american, but maybe you've heard about all the protestors getting arrested, the NDAA taking away the right to counsel and habeas corpus?
A well armed populus is a nation's best defense against tyrrany. If only the military has guns, what's left to protect the citizens from a corrupt government?
Ok dude you got it all wrong. America is the best freaking country in the world. Yes it is going to shit, it's all these leberals. But back to topic. Our amendment was made so tht if the government tried to take over or is going to shit we can rebel. It's easy 300million people with guns vs. 10mil in military. An we're lucky to have a country anyway! But the world is getting worse and worse anyway, but God is still in controll!
Ok, look, I'm fairly anti-gun, generally, but that's just not true.
"America, is the only country where guns are allowed to the general public."
Nope. A citizen not in the military or police can own a gun in Afghanistan, Albania, Antigua & Barbuda, Argentina, Armenia, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belarus, Belgium, Bolivia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Botswana, Brazil, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Canada, the Cayman Islands, Chad, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Croatia, Cuba, the Czech Republic, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Denmark, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Estonia, Ethiopia, Fiji, Finland, Germany, Greece, Guam, Guatemala, Guinea, Guyana, Honduras, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Italy, Jamaica, Kenya, Laos, Latvia, Lebanon, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Mali, Mauritania, Mexico, Micronesia, New Zealand, Norway, Pakistan, Republic of the Congo, Serbia, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, and the UK.
Some of those countries are more restrictive than the US, some of them are less restrictive (in Kenya, the minimum age to buy a gun is 12, for instance). This is not a complete list. Those are just the countries I read up on before getting bored.
There are a few countries, such as Macedonia and France, that technically allow civilians to have certain firearms under certain circumstances, but the regulations are strict enough that I left them off the list. Here's a list of the countries I found that explicitly prohibit citizens from having any firearms while I was looking into this: Cambodia, China, Eritrea, Liberia, Libya, Nauru, and Palau.
No not at all. I have no use for either of these things. Just stating facts. I mean, I guess I am badass as far as not having an emo hair cut but that is about as far as it goes.
Legalize weed or legalize guns?

Bans do nothing I could have either or both at my door in under 15 mins.

Yeah, but for the sake of the question, let's assume that bans actually work and there's no illegal trafficking.

That is simply not true. You must not get out much.
