Why they need AR-15s to preserve their way of life

Liberals, atheists, Beto and all are jumping on this one isolated shoot out. He was deranged! (Yet, they want no back groud checks.)They need the AR-15s! Or so they think. The Trump voters and the Marjories and Boeberts need the rifles for a symbolic stand against a flood of liberalism and flavor of Christianity they can't subscribe to. The world is a zero sum game. I use the word flood, as it was clearly spelled out by a New York Times journalist, Charles Blow. The flood at their door includes all liberals, minorities, and thanks to Trump, foreigners.



White people have been isolating themselves in the suburbs and smaller cities and rural areas, mainly to feel that the world has not changed. And to have the kids go to "good schools." I admit we did the same as far as schools are concerned. But I wanted the kids to get a realistic view of the world. I did not isolate them, and they have traveled enough and seen other cultures. They know we are a small part of the world, us white folks. The Boebert family has no idea what the world is like. And no interest in finding out. Isolation and sadly, guns, are the solution for them.

Simple solutions to gun violence should include very restricted weapons, not AR15s, in the hands of people under 25. You can include the routine rifles to shoot a deer, for example. But nothing will happen, as all Republican senators and their voters will resist it. The banning of any gun right is considered part of a domino effect of eventually taking all your guns away. "I could need an AR-15 some day. You never know."

The entire business of more guns is explained by a few memes.


The NRA supporters have endless excuses. Just so there is no nitpicking of all I presented, I'll run through just one. "If you ban AR-15s, only criminals will have AR-15s." 

It might seem like that is the case, as there are still a lot of them around, and they will be part of our story for a decade more. The ones owning those guns will keep using them for a hobby and will find some way to get ammunition. But it is not much of a gun for robbing a store or killing single victims. You want to make as little noise as possible when committing a crime. It is only good for mass killings as we see monthly in the US, as well as drive by shootings by gangs patrolling their areas by car. If there is a car coming by shooting randomly, the "good guy with a gun" is not going to be there. Gun owners will only have hand guns available, not AR-15s, as you walk outdoors. Vigilante shootings of illegals at the border are not a legal form of "protection."
