Your nation elected Obama twice. I don’t label all Americans because of that.
I am a conservative. And I didn’t give up any guns. Ever.
I own my weapons legally because I went out and did what I needed to do to do so. But if there hadn’t been a legal way of doing it - well, I’m not going to say I’d have broken the law. But I will say that are certainly situations in which I would break a law if I believed it was wrong. And I’m not the only one.
Fortunately legal avenues remained for me, and so I took them. I wouldn’t break the law lightly either.
HMS Surprise, hey? Well, I was a boy Midshipman - joined the Royal Australian Navy at fifteen.
I have an AR 15 and a bunch of ammo... Are you saying you own something that you’d be willing to mix it up with if I was your adversary? Doubt it.
Gun ownership isn’t common in Australia though with about 2,750,000 registered guns and about 3% of citizens having a license to own a gun.
Texas with a similar population, has about 51,000,000 guns in the state.
