      It hardly pertains to what I got to say but I was just curious. Anyway. My two cents is this there are two different types of freedom, "freedom to(of)" and "freedom from". Freedom from tyranny, freedom to bear arms etc. In my opinion govt can only handle "freedom from"

      FT requires personal action which shouldn't be corrected by govt unless it violates someone "freedom from" ,in this case, the tryanny of violence. That's my understanding of it.

      So coming back to your original point, the mere act of owning a firearm doesn't infringe on anyone's freedom from 'tyrannical actions of the individual' or violence. Because violence requires action. You can't just say "the potential of harm is just too high"

      By that logic, owning a nuke doesn't infringe on anyone's freedom either. Would you be in favour of everyone having their own nukes?

      Indeed it doesnt. "Nukes" is a rather extreme argument though isn't it. I don't think people should own nukes and the issue is, for me, accountability and justifiability not that it's a weapon. The personal use of nukes isn't justifiable. [YET].

      One could also argue that allowing all humans the freedom to communicate online is pitentially as destabilizing as nukes. Total uninhibited connectivity leads to massive increases in existential risk. Shall we ban the Internet? These arguments are not practical.

      False analogy. Unfettered communication yields huge benefits and minimal existential risk. Unfettered weapon ownership yields little benefit and huge existential risk.

      lol. This is why this is pointless. You naively assert little benefit by decree based entirely on your own biases. The whole point is that many people believe that weapon ownership yields a great deal of benefit. One might even draw a correlation b/w the 1/2 amendments...

      And argue that one reason why your own nation is rapidly losing its ability to speak freely is because your government in no way fears its people.

      1. My nation is not losing its ability to speak freely (at least in comparison to US). 2. Ownership of semi-auto weapons is no defence against an advanced state military, so no defence against a tyrannical government. 3. What actual benefit does unfettered gun ownership offer?

          US involvement in Iraq is hugely limited - nothing like an assault on home soil would be. And the govt is careful to avoid civilian casualties so tempers its power. If it were set on tyrannising its own people, it'd have no such restrictions.

          It’s no coincidence that the first two amendments are what they are. Our entire nation’s political infrastructure was carefully crafted in light of resistance to the natural elements of tyranny that emerge within any political system.

          And to believe that we’ve somehow escaped those tendencies is dangerously irresponsible. It would be nice if we had, but it just isn’t so.
