As a Canadian I’ve always found that even left Americans defend gun rights, it’s weird. But I guess if you’re born and raised in that culture it’s just normal to have such easy access to guns
I think it's Pandora's box, once opened it can't be closed.
I understand there have been instances where it's been closed in other countries, but I just can't see that vision working in the US society.
The divine rights of kings was also thought to be impossible to disappear, yet here we are.
If it were swords, we wouldn't want to the only people without swords in a place bristling with swords.
Weapons are force-multipliers and we have too many people willing to use force, including our own fucking government, which was the idea to begin with; don't have a government that can do whatever because they have all the force.
In fact, you can even demand a kingdom without swords while carrying a sword. They do not cancel each other out.

Gotta tap those new markets. Almost a million dead Americans from gun violence in the last twenty years and corporations laughing all the way to the bank.
