(In red above): Totally agree with you, however, many young people love the military rapid fire high volume guns. Makes them feel powerful or whatever, I just don't know. What I do know is, we were invited to join a gun/rifle club in Colorado and turned down the invite due to members using rapid fire military style guns. We were being showed the different ranges and heard the rapid fire. Told the golfcart driver to take us back to our vehicle and we left. We did say "Thanks for the tour, but no thanks for membership".
In Colorado, gang members released from Venezuela prisons have taken over apartment buildings, stores, and are creating violence in places like Aurora and Denver, and there are too many for the police to stop. The pictures of this online are horrible, and look like the riots we saw back in Minneapolis a few years back. We have gangs from other countries besides central and South America here, plus some from China. If these fans are attacking, and police can’t stop them , Americans need to have weapons for self defense, and not just for a hunting or sport shooting reason.
Yep, there are parts of Denver and Aurora that are very dangerous to be in at night. However, there are very good parts of both cities and, when we lived 28 miles south/southeast of Denver, in Parker, we went to some of the good parts. IOW, very nice neighborhoods! The good parts and bad parts are very visible and best to stay out of the bad parts.
Using women in conjunction with guns as an example, there’s this little tidbit the left is using that I wasn’t aware of. https://youtube.com/shorts/edk_5gcOILI?si=XyrRV-KJldNufUls
