Of course it's possible, there was one in 1861. If you mean a foreign invasion, also possible, but much less likely

He starts listing "semi-legitimate reasons" for people to own a gun. Such as: an invasion by a foreign enemy. The rest of the conversation went roughly like this: You're correct. If we ever get to the point where the only thing preventing us from foreign invasion is a bunch of fat tacticool cosplayers we're definitely already hosed.

(Me) That's literally impossible

Not in the modern era!!! There will never be a land war in the US. I will die on this hill.

As long as the police and military have them that is reason enough for the populace to have them as well unless you like the idea of a complete police state

Breakfast Feud posted:I really want there to be a clause in American gun law saying you have to belong to an organized militia in order to own guns. Want your assault rifle? Have fun with the Suburban Guard doing laps of the local football field at 5am before work, then meet up with them again in the evening for some drills and shooting practice. I would do this. Also isn't the AR the most popular gun because it's a good as gently caress gun? How many people use it to shot deer. I would do that. Also my take is that these shootings happen because society is loving sick and we have a pretty terrible health (including mental) and economic system.

SniperWoreConverse posted:I would do this. Yes, it's the combination of alienation, ideological starvation, and crushing economic pressure that makes people snap Local communities have been hit hard by modern cultural shifts which are against communal activities or traditional communitarian institutions such as family, churches, etc. This plus constant forced migration due to the labor market and an exhausting work schedule which leaves no time for socialization, fractures human bonds and leads to miserable, alienated people. Ideologically, people feel this misery and injustice, but due to the total control of media and academics which openly ridicules and invalidates anything other than a handful of flavors of corporate capitalism, on their own they are essentially unable to imagine why they feel so lovely and alone all the time. Ultimately, without any ideology to guide their actions, all they know is that they want to kill the institutions which enslave them which is usually the workplace or school, or occasionally the government.

Also a lot of people get a lot of their socialization thru s screens and the abstractness can gently caress you up. Look at me all my socialization is the the forums. In extremely 50s social disease warning voice: "it could happen to YOU!" But I know a lot of truly profoundly unhappy people out there. Especially some who are locked into jobs they hate, or are just ugly hearted as all gently caress and got mean.

The US no longer has any well regulated militias like it had in the 1800's. Even if you look at the fucks that took over the Malheur refuge, a small squad of trained troops would squash them into crying pulps of flesh.

SniperWoreConverse posted:Also isn't the AR the most popular gun because it's a good as gently caress gun? No. It's because it's "omg I feel like an army mans" and because it's the Barbie's dreamhouse of guns where you can customize all kinds of poo poo without having to go to a gunsmith or have any idea what you're doing. quote:How many people use it to shot deer. I would do that. Pretty much nobody. You don't need 30+ rounds to kill a deer (unless you're retarded) and 223 is a really lovely round for doing it anyway. If you look at any top 10 "here are the best deer guns" it'll all either be bolt or lever actions. Though they'll increasingly include an AR or two just so they don't get a shitload of hate mail from idiots. And all of their AR recs won't be for the standard 223, it'll be for 6.5 creedmoor or 260 remington or something. ARs make poo poo hunting rifles. In terms of actual hunting use they're really only good for slaughtering a shitload of coyotes or prairie dogs in a short amount of time.
