like, when you're the government, you can afford being somewhat picky about who you give this clearance to

with 300m guns in circulation, denying people for some anger metric just isn't gonna work



this is the most naive and sheltered shit I've read in this whole thread

not having guns in a shit neighborhood is like painting a gigantic "rob me" sign above your house

1) is there evidence behind this claim?

2) at the very least what about restrictions, or even training, I don't know

clearly the system is fucked and needs amendments

3) then we should let everyone get guns? I'm not abjectly disagreeing with you that they need guns for safety but the end result is pretty much that "violence and crime is inevitable so give everybody guns"

I doubt that game theory / mutual deterrence works in a lot of these kinds of fast-paced, micro-scaled scenarios, because irrationality kicks in (especially in lower-income areas)
