Strong majority want guns for self protection but I have good friends who have over 30 guns. They work on them and shoot in competitions. A smaller amount stockpile bigtome but I see nothin wrong with tha t either

The bad guys gave guns so the good gyys need em too. I don't disagree with the gun show restrictiobs n stuff but most gun hcontrol politicians have absolutely no clue what they are talkin bout

I'm pro gun. I am going to be hunting for red squirrel sometime after I take my hunter safety course. Most people in the cities and other countries don't really understand guns, mostly because They have never hunted, went target shooting, etc. Well, hunting is not at all about going and getting drunk and shooting a deer for fun. Its about enjoying the outdoors and knowing where you get your food from, because some people say "meat is murder" or "Its not harvested right". Well, if you want to get some good meat for yourself go get a rifle and a hunting license and head into the woods. Then you wont have to worry about your food being mishandled by the big bad corporations. Then if you say, "well you wont be able to get your gun in time if theres a bad guy". That really depends on the situation. If there was a guy with a knife trying to mug me, Id probably kick him in the balls and shoot him. If the person mugging me had a gun, I probably would wait until the opportunity arose to shoot him.

I also think there should be measures to regulate the sales of guns by private owners, to make it harder for criminals to get their hands on guns. I think that any personal gun sales should have to be mediated through a third party that verifies the buyer is legally allowed to the buy the gun. There should also be laws in place that state any theft in guns must immediately be reported to the police, and anyone who fails to do so should be subject to prosecution.

I also think that ammo should be more regulated. Obviously it's not feasible to have a background check every time someone purchases a box of bullets. But there should be a form of ID that does require a background check to obtain and renew which would be used for each purchase of ammo.

Also, to me there are just certain weapons/items which practically speaking aren't worth letting people buy. I don't see why people really need AR-15's or tactical shotguns for home defense or hunting. I can't imagine why any law abiding citizen would need tear gas grenades or body armor. Etc.
Do you need a fast car to get to work? I don't see why you would need that.

You don't need a gun for this though. & If you were setting traps & snares to catch stuff you'd be more in touch with the outdoors than just walking round/lying down waiting to shoot whatever you see imo.

You'd probably need a gun to catch birds but you could catch deer, rabbit, squirrel, most land animals in the woods without one if you know what you're doing.

If you need an assault rifle to hunt then I think you are doing it wrong.

Everyone should learn to hunt cause eventually more ppl will have to. Robots will take more jobs and greed will lead to a bigger lower class who will need to learn to be self sustsinable for survival aka learn to farm n hunt

until animal wild life is so threatened by us, that we have to make hunting completely illegal, otherwise we would rot out all the animals around us, bringing "everyone" in a kinda ****ed up position, cuz they wasted their time on learning how to hunt instead of learning something useful? good idea.

I agree that people need to learn to become more self sufficient as far as farming but meh hunting is optional.

People need to get into setting up greenhouses and using solar panels and relying less on the grid.
