I had a coworker that was kinda anti-gun and I showed them an AR-15 and asked if it should be illegal, they said “100 percent, nobody needs a military rifle”. I said ok, fair and showed them a wood frame mini-14 and asked the same question, they said “well no, that’s a hunting rifle”…that was the day I truly realized there are too many people highly opinionated on something they know nothing about. I explained to them both guns were the same caliber, same capacity, same rate of fire…they were speechless

Imagine if a person who has never driven a car was tasked to make car laws. They might come up with solutions that seem like good ideas, but actually aren't. For instance, they might make it the law for every car to be red, for high visibility. They might decide to reduce the size of the gas pedal to keep people from speeding. They might make gas tanks smaller to discourage you from driving on long trips to save the environment. However, all of these laws would do nothing but inconvenience the person driving the car. That's basically what California gun laws are like.

[@babak4952]

[@daviddemand6856]

I no longer believe that any “gun laws” are reasonable or relevant. As Uncle Ted stated back in the day, “you give them nothing”, no compromise on gun laws. When the establishment submits a bill for a gun control measure, the anti-establishment should readily submit five that require repeal of bills already passed. Period. No NFA, no GCA, no excuses or exceptions!

[@Bronson737]

Exactly. "Compromise" is just a tool to take power away from the people. Things only move in one direction when you compromise on your freedoms. The phrase itself is nonsensical, anyways, as compromising on freedom is not a coherent idea. You can never gain it and lose it at the same time. You can only either gain it OR lose it. If you have a cake, and you "compromise" by giving up 10% of it, that's not a compromise. You're just giving away your cake. And you can be 100% sure that the person will be back for more cake, asking "why won't you compromise?". Then you lose 10% more of your cake, and so on until you have no cake left. That's our freedom, and our humanity.

It's pretty crazy when you realize the full scope of their influence on the industry, militaries, and the fact that all those weapons are known for supreme reliability.

[@mpclepto182]

If you're out there buying HK you ARE compromising....on price. What a great marking strategy. "You'll never have to compromise again if you first open your wallet!"

[@thekamotodragon]

@@mpclepto182 well... i won't disagree with you there, but the reason for that is HK is primarily a military contractor first and they've always been known to sell to militaries at a "higher" price, even in bulk, so they can't just sell to civilian markets suddenly at a lower price, otherwise the militaries (who have all the money in the world, so they are ok with paying any price) will get suspicious if they charge civilians less than what they charge them. But i mean, they do make top quality stuff, and while clones exist, you won't get all those legendary German designs, in their original form, without paying extra for it, so their business model makes sense. It just sucks for us poor consumers. HK knows their clientele are the more "wealth inclined" individuals anyways lol.

[@mpclepto182]

@@thekamotodragon Yep, you nailed it. And when so many government contractors DON'T deliver on their crazy high prices....they are different for doing so! Now, I could make an argument that HK's "higher quality" doesn't actually matter enough to justify the price but I believe that would be purely subjective as I don't have enough information to make a case. Agree with everything you said.

In Regard to Compromise? How does someone meet in the middle with person who is willfully ignorant or doesn't care? You can't and don't.. Some people subscribe to complete control and submit to endless negotiation of rules. And that is why California has so many rules.

[@gened9632]

Just my $0.02... when anyone feels they're "right" or justified, they don't compromise. At least, not with anyone they think is wrong. Just look at how many gun enthusiasts comments there are everywhere, stating that virtually any gun law is stupid because "the bad guys will just...". By that logic, any law is stupid because people will break them, so why have laws at all? Most rules are an attempt to setup moralistic guidelines with consequences for those who don't adhere. Stupid? A lot of times. Alternatives? Go to Haiti and see. A rule I've always held; if I cannot listen to someone else's argument, and paraphrase it back to them in a way in which they agree, then I don't understand what they're trying to say, and there can be no way to engage in constructive discourse. I personally think a lot of the gun laws are stupid. However, I also think it's stupid that we have a huge culture of guys who want to be "tactical", yet never nutted up and actually served in the military. I personally think graduated licensing should happen in many aspects of our country. Cars, motorcycle sizes, firearms. I think an 18 year old with unrestricted access to any type of firearm they want is just as irresponsible as an 18 year old with a dodge Hellcat or a 1000cc motorcycle. You want it? Go get more training, advanced driving school, advanced weapons training. License for it. I also see that every other country with a large population of gun use with close to zero civilian issues has mandatory military service also. I believe there's a huge correlation there. That's just my idea. But most of the people commenting here would lose their mind's accusing me of being anti-gun. I'm not anti gun. I am anti retard. So yes, a lot of rules are stupid. It was stupid that I returned home from my first deployment to the Persian Gulf and I still couldn't get into a bar and have a beer (I was 19). But I do think there could be substantial progress made in terms of finding rules that aren't stupid, but when the only argument from gun enthusiasts is "NO RULES", that only leaves the ignorant politicians to write stupid rules. Those rules do nothing but make other ignorant non-gun citizens feel a false sense of security. So, who's the one's not compromising? Everyone directly involved in the discussion. So there will be no forward progress. I've been to the capitol to discuss and comment on proposed legislation. Every citizen can actually get involved. It just helps if they have reasonable alternatives and actually address the opposing side's concerns empathetically. And for the record... the vast majority of where I live in California has CCW. It's rarely even discussed except for the wackadoodles that moved here to live their dreams of being "tactical" (yet still, never actually nutted up and served). You know... like those asshats firing off full auto weapons, starting the Caldor fire and almost burning down my neighborhood.

Something that doesn't get talked a lot in regards to the 2A and that is *sovereignty.* From chatGPT before it got extremely biased. When the Founders spoke of the people could assert their sovereignty, they referred to the idea that the ultimate source of political authority and power in the new nation rested with the citizens. The concept of sovereignty in the context of the American Revolution and the creation of the United States was closely tied to the principles of popular sovereignty and self-governance. In the traditional European model of governance, power was concentrated in the hands of monarchs or ruling elites, who held authority by divine right or hereditary claims. However, the Founding Fathers rejected this notion and believed that political legitimacy came from the consent of the governed, not from any divine or inherited right. They embraced the idea of popular sovereignty, which asserted that the people, as a collective body, were the true source of political power. In other words, the government derived its legitimacy and authority from the will of the people it governed. The citizens, through their participation and representation in the democratic process, could shape the laws and institutions that governed their lives. This idea of sovereignty was deeply intertwined with the concept of individual rights and liberties, as the Founding Fathers sought to create a system that protected the rights of individuals while promoting the common good. The Second Amendment, as part of the Bill of Rights, was seen as a critical safeguard for maintaining the people's sovereignty. It recognized the right of the people to keep and bear arms, which was instrumental in empowering them to protect themselves, their families, and their communities. The ability of the people to be armed was not just about self-defense against criminals or foreign invaders but also about preserving the citizens' ability to resist any potential future government that might infringe upon their liberties. The Founding Fathers saw the armed citizenry as a check on potential abuses of power by the government, ensuring that the government would always be accountable to the people it governed. By having the means to defend themselves and their rights, the people could actively participate in shaping the course of the nation, thereby asserting their sovereignty in the political landscape. To conclude, the notion of the people could assert their sovereignty meant that the power and authority of the government emanated from the consent of the governed. It emphasized the people's role as the ultimate decision-makers and highlighted their right to bear arms as a means to protect their liberties and participate actively in the governance of the new nation.

[@slickdaddy3241]

@@zachrichardson5581 i am the militia. Well regulated. As in well trained and disciplined. NOT restricted and also not well regulated, as in your bowel movements are regular. See interpretation is a B. If the second amendment meant anything else other than civilians right to keep an bear arms, and that right shall not be infringed, it would've said and there would've been a well documented history of it. But there isn't. 2A is not open to interpretation. 2A is absolute. If it wasent, the founding fathers would've said otherwise. Which is precisely why the Bruen decision explicitly states, that all firearm laws must be in line with firearms laws of the time of the ratification of the second amendment, 1791, and that text, history, and tradition is the test. If ANY firearms law doesn't fall in line with the laws that were valid during the ratification in 1791, it is therefore UNCONSTITUTIONAL. These are the only rights you as a civilian in this country gets. I wouldn't be so open to giving them up.

Here's the thing though, compromise is fine if the two options are equal, but very often they are not. Often, one person is just dead wrong, and compromising on something that is wrong just continues the wrongness. Not everything is relative. Evil exists, and it should not be allowed to live.

Oh, jeez! Gun nut says, "You're talking to ME about gun regulation and you don't know the difference between and clip and a magazine," completely forgetting that there hasn't been a gun made that takes a clip since WWII. 🙄 Among regular people, "clip" is a commonly used term because it's a short onomatopoeia and there's nothing in common use that it could be confused with, so it's irrelevant to the gun control discussion.

The more you learn about ANY industry or product, the more obvious it is that the people regulating it have no idea what they're doing. Politicians don't have any more knowledge about, say... electrical engineering than you do. But they still make the laws governing how buildings must be wired up. We're all super specialized. Within our various specializations and fields of interest, we know how incompetent and ignorant the oversight is. For some reason, though, we falsely assume that they're competent and knowledgeable about all the things we're ignorant about.

[@JustSomeGuy69420]

The pistol grip thing is funny because rifles didn't have them at all for a long time and they were still great rifles. It literally just changes your wrist position a bit. Big deal. Pretty much any M1-whatever series rifle had no pistol grip. All very solid rifles.

[@drinkyourtea]

4:14 the other problem with regulating ammo is do they think the criminals who shoot people will respect the law? we keep saying this because they don't get this fact no matter how many times people say it.

[@silveravnt]

There are some things you can compromise on and some you shouldn't. Where to go for dinner is unimportant and compromise keeps the peace. You don't compromise on how many of your kids a child abductor gets to take. Lawmakers who claim to be pro-2A, have compromised our gun rights away.
