Come on kids, honestly, most of you are fucking geeks who spend twelve or more hours a day sitting at your computer. No one's ever going to threaten you nor are you ever going to need to defend yourself, because you're not a target in your mom's basement.

The argument that we need an armed populace to dissuade our government from becoming corrupt is pretty ridiculous to anyone over the age of twelve. It held water 250 years ago when everybody had muskets and cannons, but today the government has drones and bombs and shit. You can't compete with them if they decide they want to do whatever bad things you fantasize about them doing to you. We don't need the second amendment any more, it's just that we are so inundated with firearms that they are in inextricable part of American life. And Americans are scientifically proven to have tiny dicks. Numbers don't lie dudes.

Personally, I carried a gun as a teenager from time to time because it was the nineties and it was thug life ***** so we all strapped. The only times I was ever a victim of gun violence(shot at a few times, held hostage for a few hours) I was armed. Since becoming an adult I have never carried a gun. I've owned several houses, a farm, and numerous cars and none of them has ever been taken from me at gunpoint. No one's ever tried, even. My anecdotal evidence would thus suggest you are more likely to be involved in a gun-related altercation if you are yourself armed. Derp.
