You all speak jibber jabber, comparing Russia? LOL Russia is a shit country, and you would feel the same way if you were standing in below zero temps waiting in a mile long line only to get potato skins to eat. That did happen too by the way. Fuck Russia and Communism both.
We have the best system available for a good society. The problem is, the system requires its people to be good honest citizens. Get it? Government of the people for the people? At the end of the day, everyone with a Government job is an individual. If those individuals come from a society made up unmoralistic people who refuse to help there neighbor or even help a poor kid dying in the street. People who would rather sit around and take video of you dying in the street with there cell phone rather then help you. Then these are the fruits of our labor. What you see happening today in our society , is because our society has degraded to this level.
There wasn't a problem with guns back in the old days, young kids walked around and hunted with 22 rifles, like we used to with bb guns. People helped the old lady cross the road, etc etc. Our society is shit now, and it will only get worse. The question you should ask yourself is " Why the fuck wouldn't I want to own a gun in this society?"

Easy for me to answer. Sporting, hunting. And as a patriotic duty to have just incase all shit hit the fan (could be any kind of shit from Russia, China, Alien Invasion, our society collapsing). But just stored in the last case in a safe for use as a militia. Fuck can be stored at the militia house for all I care.
But do not want Federal government fucking with my local militia regulations. Should be between me and my neighbors and fellow people in the city/neighborhood.
Yes I would go to regular meetings to organize and plan how this stuff would work. And then I would be more than happy to say fuck it, no individuals need guns in their homes at that point. Totally willing to compromise that far. But under the right conditions.
As we move to a more egalitarian worldview (less racism, less sexism (including gay/lgbt) something like this will be much more workable. Once we work out social boundaries in regards to the internet and privacy things will improve to. Its not an either or situation.
In the 50's something like that might have stifled the evolution of our society to a more fair and balanced one. (Yes we made progress since I was a little kid in elementary school with 1 single black person in my entire grade)
