    As a foreign, I don’t know why US need to buy real AR-15 at home.

    If you want to play, buy Airsoft. If you want to hunt, buy a rifle.

      There are people in this country who love their ARs more than they love their family. Sounds like an exaggeration. I wish it was an exaggeration. It’s not.

        I’ve lost friends over it. Like, years long friendships. All because fuckers care more about fucking guns than the people who had their backs through their personal shit.

            I don’t let my kids play at their friends’ houses unless I know their parents don’t own guns. I’ve seen too many instances where kids have found weapons in a house and gotten hurt or have hurt others.

            My kids also never stay alone with their grandparents because they have a lot of weapons and I’ve seen those weapons in various places where they don’t belong and it’s unsafe.

            No, they quit a friendship because I’m not 100% on board with guns. I’m fine with gun ownership and all, but I think we do need some restrictions on who can get firearms, what firearms are available for civilian use, and I’m pretty with strict background checks and stuff. They view those things as infringing on 2nd amendment rights.
