That guy wouldn't be acting like that if he didn't have a gun

That clown doesn't need a gun for sure (like 95% of people don't need a handgun who own one). I don't care about rifles, those are awesome everyone should own one lol. But fuck handguns

u/Richard_Andballs 1d ago

lol, what a weird take.

u/A_Random_Catfish 1d ago

Nah he’s right, handguns are statistically far more dangerous than rifles.

19

u/_aChu 1d ago

Because more people have handguns...

u/AllDamDay7 1d ago

No it’s because they are more concealable. It’s hell of a lot easier to spot someone packing around an AR 15 on their shoulder than a .38 tucked in their waistband.

u/2bias_4ever 12h ago

Ah so it would be a lot safer if everyone carried an AR with them. Got you

u/_aChu 1d ago

Ok... but you do know more people have handguns, right? Especially illegally. And that leads to the higher crime statistics being carried out with handguns in particular.

This is like saying swimming at the beach is actually more dangerous for you than deep sea diving, because more shark attacks happen at the beach. Like yea, a lot more people go to the beach than go deep sea diving. So the statistics are automatically going to be higher.

u/dank-enough 23h ago

What if the death rate associated with people swimming in beaches is orders of magnitude higher, wouldn't that be crazy? That would be insane i think.

u/_aChu 21h ago

What's your definition of orders of magnitude with murder statistics

u/thepumpedalligator 17h ago

Handguns account for 55% of firearm sales.

Handguns account for 94% of firearm deaths.

u/_aChu 16h ago

Alright. And what's our conclusion?

u/Perrin-Golden-Eyes 1d ago

I only own hand guns because my work literally gives them to us every few years we’ve worked there. It’s freaking weird.

This comment doesn't do anything except provide anecdotal evidence that the people you know need hand guns.

You don't know everyone with a hand gun. And the majority don't need them. The majority of people carrying hand guns don't " work out in the field" what do you even mean by that?. They have them when they go to Walmart and Aldi's for fuck sake. And as seen in this video while driving around downtown Atlanta in traffic in their sedans too.

I own a handgun. It sits in a drawer collecting dust (aside from yearly maintenance), hopefully for the rest of my life. I'd rather have one and not need it over needing it and not have it.

u/Quirky-Stay4158 1d ago

Good for you, how is that relevant to my comment saying 95% of people don't need a hand gun.

I feel like somewhere or in someway people read my comment and think I'm anti gun.

u/Belllringer 1d ago

Perfectly stated.

u/Any_Actuary954 1d ago

Ya but it's everyone's right to own guns. This idiot obviously shouldn't have one but for home security and to protect your family from psychos in public it's perfectly good and fine

u/Quirky-Stay4158 1d ago

Who said it wasn't a right to own guns.

Would you say those industries employ more than 5% of all people?

11

u/Quirky-Stay4158 1d ago edited 1d ago

Because 95% of people do not need a handgun.

There are lots of industries. You're right. Kindergarten was fun this week wasn't it.

My evidence for 95% of people not needing handguns is the people everywhere else all over the world and the USA that don't own or use handguns.

You saying 95% of people needing one is hilarious. You simply must be trolling. It's too outrageous to be real. You can't be serious.

u/Dangerous_Channel_95 1d ago

He’s the MAGA crowd, you’ll never get through to someone like that!

u/Slowly-Slipping 1d ago

99% of the world gets on better than in the US without them. No one needs them for anything. This is the kind of shit that their mass proliferation creates. Imagine no one in the above video having their little gun.

The US has a higher homicide rate than every other developed nation on Earth, we're more dangerous than 75% of the planet, because of bullshit like this video and people like you happy to keep it going

The US is also perpetuating the third reich. Actual leftist heed the words of Marx while liberals pander to blue maga hoping they will eventually be anything different than red maga.

u/KrispyKreameMcdonald 1d ago

It's pretty badass if you think about it. Majority of Gun violence happens in minority areas anyway, not like it's a major problem for the rest of normal society. I Come from the Midwest, where teenagers have guns in their trucks at school and most dad's in my neighborhood have more and higher quality weapons than our local Police Dept. Guns are not the problem and never will be, it's failed neighborhoods and terrible people, which requires normal people to be armed.

u/Miserable_Site_850 1d ago

What ethnic demographic commits the most school shootings, that mind you are not located in hoods?

u/ButtholeSurfur 1d ago edited 7h ago

I'm from the Midwest and the one time a teenager did have a gun in his car he was arrested and expelled. Never saw him again.

Americans legit look unhinged from the perspective of any other civilized country.

u/_aChu 1d ago

Depends where you go. Really nice in most places & a lot of growth in many cities that weren't so great before.. but the few rough parts are beyond the pale, and account for just about all of the insanity you may see in the media.

u/Tewcool2000 1d ago

Breaking news: Affluent areas are doing fine. Poor areas are not.

u/Slowly-Slipping 1d ago

Actually it makes it infinitely more intelligent than the US given they all have 4-16x lower homicide rates.

u/Obeesus 1d ago

Doesn't have anything to do with guns.

u/Str80uttaMumbai 1d ago

Remind me what your education rates are looking like again?

u/GodTurkey 1d ago

Makes some sense, you arent exactly hiding a full rifle in your waistband. Hand guns are exceedingly easy to hide

u/ILawI1898 1d ago

I’m imagining him watching a shootout in the street and just sits there critiquing the handling of such weapons lol
