I’ve been thinking about something and want to check an assumption I have. I only hear directly from other people in the USA, and interract with the global community through memes. How are the gun regulations/laws different from yours in terms of strictness, and do you wish there was more or less where you live?
Not looking for a debate here, discuss cold drinks vs hot drinks instead. Appreciate either answer. ❤️
Edit: Thanks for the answers all. I’m super proud how productive eveyone kept this talk. I figured most of you had very different experiences than I. I’ll share my most recent experience. I don’t have a firearm, but have considered it after being trained enough. When sharing this with “normal” people around town, I had multiple people offer to sell or gift me a gun where the serial number was scratched off and non-traceable. I ofter heard, “oh man, yeah. You need a gun.” I have literally never needed one. The fact that people offer to give me one when I don’t have a liscence or training shows the mindset of the minority here and how much of a problem a few individuals can make to safety within the current system.
It also applies to gun storage and gun transportation. Driving around with a shotgun on a rack behind your head in your ute would not be legal here.
Sure, but you’re not likely to be doing much of either without owning one 🙂 I’d be surprised if a gun owner allowing someone else to store or transport their guns isn’t in breach of their license as well.
@asret yeah, it likely would be in breach. :-)
I just mean the OP is from the US where they have “concealed carry”, “open carry” etc. Compared to that, our laws about what you can do with a gun once you get one are relatively strict.
