    Only for an oppressive government.

    No. Read it again. My OP. I did not say “all gun people are nice people.”

    “Gun people are nice people.”
    That is an all encompassing statement that implies all.

    No, if I meant "all," I would have used the word ALL. But I did not, did I? So you are adding that word. This is known as a fallacy. And you are using it because you know your argument is poor so you need to change mine into something it's not to more easily defeat it or play "gotcha!" This is known as the straw man. Don't feel bad, it's a common fallacy used by people with weak arguments. Which is most people.

    Most of those are legally not supposed to have guns in the first place.

    Bull. You are inventing words that aren’t there. Debate like a man.

    Really, you can't even prevent a potential terrorist from having guns.

    I can't help but note that I have been a gun advocate all of my life. But trumpers have changed my mind.

    Because you supported trump, people like me are now after your guns.

    Best argument against gun control I've heard in a long time.

    I'm not the one altering content to fit my argument.

    I read an estimate the other day that said the number is somewhere between 400,000,000 and 750,000,000 firearms and over 18 TRILLION rounds of ammo in civilian hands. The more the better as far as I'm concerned. Less likelihood of Americans being rounded up and put on boxcars to the gulags or the ovens.

    We can tell by the huge number of legal gun owners daily greeting people with a hail of bullets.

    So 2A and the amount of gun is why citizens of the US haven't been rounded up and put on boxcars to the gulags or the ovens? How is it that the current day citizens of countries such as Australia, England, Ireland, India, Nepal, Netherlands, Scotland, Spain, et. al. are not being rounded up and put on boxcars to the gulags or the ovens by its govt?
    Mind you, I am grateful for 2A and against anymore banning of guns. But let's stop with this nonsense that the US will suddenly turn into Nazi Germany if the citizens didn't have the amount of guns we have.
