Alright, seems fair. Also most of the time when someone wants to protect themselves from police enforcement, the police shoots first. Govt doesn't even need guns to control anyway
North Vietnam had a lots of military. The US did the most damage by killing 2 million civilians and 600k soldiers. They did not lose the battles at all, it was just unnecessary.
if rich in resources were all that was required to be a successful country how did Europe (poor in resources) overtake Africa (rich in resources)?
Europe isn't poor per se. It really started with the triangular trade that immensely benefited them. Then collect African resources as a sort of "independence tax"
Your just proving my point. Imagine if not just the military but all of the people were armed with modern weaponry.
Wouldn't stand a chance against tanks and planes. Civilians wouldn't be as coordinated as the military too. They went from Poland to Moscow and everyone had a gun there
Again totally in denial about the fact that France was lost as a country to Germany before being restored by people with guns. Gun control is more about control than anything.
Our entire army was wiped out by the blitzkrieg in 6 weeks. It has way more to do with our inferior technological progress at the time than giving guns to civilians or not.
Is this just for show too?

Absolutely not, this is the RAID units, the French SWAT. There's a very low chance to see them in real life. They are only 380 too.. They don't enforce anything.
Agree. But guns I homes deters them from declaring war on or own people. Notice the more gun control the more militarized the police become.
I'm sorry but this is not true. In France only the military and special forces carry loaded guns and gendarmes doesn't have any. There are just more men since recent events.
They all could have been easily avoided by non-intervension in the first place. If only the American people only had the ability to see through the propaganda and stop fascism.
"American people" don't choose what war to participate in, even if they see through the propaganda, and their guns won't deter the govt from going. Like the Vietnam war...
So you don’t mind over 400,000 innocent civilians killed in Iraq and Afghanistan since the US invasion? You only care about the deaths sensationalized by mainstream media?
I care about the deaths that could have been easily avoided. But what's your take on this, should we demilitarize the US ? Or train every iraqi, even children ?
It has
Your country was taken and then given back by those with guns. Gun control has nothing to with saving lives, it has to with who has guns and who doesn’t. It’s about control
I don't mind trained military to have guns. You have to be delusional to think civilians with handguns can control any army armed with tanks, drones, etc. Civilians never have control.
This is extremely shortsighted. How easily you forget history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_France
I didn't forget, I actually learnt that in school. The thing is our weaponry tech was really inferior at the time. If they gave a weapon to everyone, we would have lost anyway.
I am talking about Sub-Sahara Africa. On their own? Never invented a wheel! Technology? A flying stick for killing each other? No abstract thought, incapable of planning, av IQ86.
Europe is for Europeans, like China is for Chinese etc. "exploit its resources" LOL! Africa had those resources for 10s of K years. Never invented a wheel to use any. U Move there
You talk about them like they aren't even human.. They had sufficient technology until they became colonised for centuries during our great industrial golden age.
what do you mean by "racist"? Is it that I don't agree with "China for Chinese, Africa for Africans, Europe for everyone" ideology? Or some other leftist bull shit you are trained to?
Africa is for developed countries to exploit its resources. Which forces the population to immigrate to survive. Its a chicken and egg situation really. Europe is not the victim here.
Chris Pacia is the double agent who pushed this nonsense cashaddress. Today once again we had issues paying in a shop because cashaddress makes the whole system more incompatible.
Never thought about it like that. But cash address is adopted nearly everywhere and it does prevent from spending to a BTC address. I think ledger doesn't support it though 😒
