What is the problem with banning weapons? (piefed.social)

Sorry if this is not the place for that kind of discussion. I would like to be civil, please. Some people on Reddit were talking about how only dictators would want to disarm people.

Can I have some explanation on your opinion and why? I believe weapons should be banned and that crime should not exist in the first place. My opinion may change, but I believe there should somehow be strict rules regarding crime to reduce the amount of it and just have a place where it will not be worried about.

At the end of the day, people like to own guys and there is a very profitable industry that wants to keep it that way.

Unintentionally calling out the 13th Amendment for what it really is

I'd really like everybody who is into guns, to be into guys instead. The world would be a better place.

If we were allowed to own guys? Well...used to be you could, I guess. I think you still can in some countries, Libya maybe still.

Not uhhh.... exactly something I agree with you on, but go off I guess. I'd rather people use guns to prevent people from owning guys.
