pretty much like every single person does, no one votes for what they believe is bad for them

2018-02-16 22:31:49 UTC  

for example: i personally do not think that civilians should be allowed to own guns (with VERY specific exceptions). but if i look at the US it obvious that it is impossible to get rid of all the guns (especially the illegal ones) which makes the risk of a ban outweigh the reward.

Pew Pew Bang Bang.

On Christmas, I received my permit (because the state regulates firearms excessively). :3

2018-02-16 22:33:45 UTC  

SHALL NOT, etc.

2018-02-16 22:33:56 UTC  

Next month, I attend a safety-course!

2018-02-16 22:34:43 UTC  

what state?

2018-02-16 22:35:14 UTC  

The United States' most gerrymandered one.

2018-02-16 22:35:23 UTC  

Maryland?

2018-02-16 22:35:49 UTC  

👍🏽

2018-02-16 22:38:00 UTC  

The 2nd & 4th Districts appear awkward, but the 3rd proves comical.

2018-02-16 22:38:13 UTC  

gun regulation in germany: only for police, military, hunters (hunting rifles only) and security personnel...

2018-02-16 22:38:37 UTC  

So it goes.

2018-02-16 22:38:59 UTC  

There exist more private security officers than police in the United States.

2018-02-16 22:40:46 UTC  

and most of the police in the US would probably not be able to become police officers in germany...

2018-02-16 22:41:11 UTC  

Why?

2018-02-16 22:41:18 UTC  

Simply incorrect, about german gunlegislation

2018-02-16 22:41:22 UTC  

They could.

2018-02-16 22:41:59 UTC  

somi, what is wrong about it?

2018-02-16 22:42:00 UTC  

Issue is the typical german police officer has been in training for about three years before finally becoming an officer? Whereas in the US the typical training time is about six months.

2018-02-16 22:42:21 UTC  

There's a fuckton more people that own guns in Germany than just those groups.

2018-02-16 22:42:49 UTC  

It's simply not correct that there's no such thing as recreational gun ownership in Germany.

2018-02-16 22:43:56 UTC  

yeah, 3 years training and physical and mental tests to before you can even begin training

2018-02-16 22:43:58 UTC  

One professor from Germany stated there exists a "right to technology" in Germany that grants arriving refugees iPhones, though he specialized in economics so that may prove unreliable.

2018-02-16 22:44:17 UTC  

Nope.

2018-02-16 22:44:23 UTC  
2018-02-16 22:44:32 UTC  

Sure as fuck not what I've heard from German gun owners.

2018-02-16 22:44:37 UTC  

right to technology...?

2018-02-16 22:44:49 UTC  

3 years was police 😉

2018-02-16 22:44:59 UTC  

You meant that "Nope" for me, or Falko?

2018-02-16 22:45:12 UTC  

I think that should be obvious.

2018-02-16 22:45:27 UTC  

Me, then.

2018-02-16 22:45:35 UTC  

...No

2018-02-16 22:45:48 UTC  

"Common sense is not so common." 🤷🏽

2018-02-16 22:47:26 UTC  

It seems obvious to me that a right *to* technology (esp. an iPhone) seems ridiculous. :/

2018-02-16 22:49:32 UTC  

In terms of being available for purchase, sure, but not for it to just be handed to you. And even then, that should have some limitations.
Obviously, private citizens shouldn't be allowed to purchase nuclear weapons.

2018-02-16 22:50:08 UTC  

Yes, availability & ability to purchase one make sense.

2018-02-16 22:50:32 UTC  

(I apologize; English is not my first language.)

2018-02-16 22:52:20 UTC  

recreational gun ownership is the same as "hunter" for me... basically the same regulations for both
