How about right to have an access to affordable mental care and universal income instead? Countries where you need those guns are are often more or less unstable, because they have huge gap between poor and rich class, causing violence and bad neighbourghoods.

Desperation, fear, angst and lack of safety net, causes people to lash out and they will take justice in their own hands or deal with emotions by aggression. Put guns to this mix and fear of getting hit from a stray bullets will grow also. People who like to carry guns often do it because of the fear of their safety. But for some reason they don't trust anything that deals with root problems and is actually efficiently growing safety.

If everyone has the right to own a firearm, this means that it will be easier for criminals to own firearms. So what's the point if people have firearms but criminals also have firearms? This would be dangerous and worsen the chaos. Moreover, if criminals have firearms, they will be braver and more sadistic in committing criminal acts.

Let's take it from the US which has regulations regarding firearms which in my opinion are not too strict.



Graph of firearm deaths in the US, 1999 - 2021.

Suicide → Suicide
Homicide → Murder, criminal act. Varies, such as hitman, robbery, etc.

So in my opinion everyone has the right to own a firearm, but it must be subject to strict regulations and proven by psychological tests. That will reduce the risks as I mentioned above.

^^^ People don't often hear about the lives that are saved by guns in the US. Although there is info about it that you can find if you look for it, THE MAIN POINT is totally hidden. What is the main point? Projections about what would happen if the people did NOT have guns.

Without guns in the hands of good citizens, all kinds of shooters would come out of hiding, and do mass shootings all over the place. It's not the fact of average people protecting themselves with guns. It's the fact that a few of them do, and mass-murdering shooters don't know which of the people would.


Daniel Perry Pardoned in Texas for Shooting AK47-Wielding BLM 'Protester'


https://www.informationliberation.com/?id=64453
The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles approved a pardon for Army Sgt Daniel Perry on Thursday after spending over a year investigating his shooting of a BLM "protester" armed with an AK-47.

Perry, a veteran who was working as an Uber driver, shot AK-47 wielding BLM "protester" Garrett Foster during the Summer of Floyd in 2020 after Foster together with a mob of BLM protesters swarmed him in his car in the middle of a public street.


The man who defended himself against BLM rioters was indicted today a year after the incident in yet another example of how illegitimate our justice system is

Army Sgt Daniel Perry was driving Uber when rioters mobbed his car and pointed a gun towards him.


The media describes mobbing his car and pointing a gun towards him as "motioned with the assault rifle for Mr. Perry to lower his window", as if one could tell that https://kxxv.com/hometown/texas/fort-hood-soldier-who-fatally-shot-austin-protester-garrett-foster-indicted-on-multiple-charges...

Shortly before being killed Garrett made it clear why he was there.


Another BLM rioter shot at Perry shortly after he defended himself. Perry then fled and immediately called police upon getting to safety.

Texas is a stand your ground state, but it looks like that doesn't apply if you defend yourself from those with a system approved ideology

Before giving firearms to every citizen, be sure the citizens are mentally matured enough to handle firearms responsibly. I live in an environment where the possession of firearms is not legalised, yet crimes resulting from the use of firearms are on the increase. Imagine a situation where everyone is allowed to own one, there will be more insecurity and jungle justice will be on the rise too because everyone is obviously a suspect.

The duty of protection of lives and properties should be left in the hands of the police.  They have been trained for this, therefore they should be able to help maintain peace and order. If the government desperately wants to ensure that its citizens are safe, then they should equip the military and paramilitary so well to do their jobs effortlessly.

I think if there is a lack of social security, it's that everyone in our society needs to have guns, especially the adults. Because guns keep us safe in many cases, when people are in some kind of trouble. So I also think that all adults should own guns for their own safety.
