>it's an objective fact that California's government is hostile toward it's citizens possessing and bearing firearms
A state puts restrictions on semi-automatic weapons (one model which has been used to kill hundreds or thousands of people in random shootings) and here it's described as "being hostile to people possessing firearms". For most non-americans (which is my case) this will always sounds so strange
- borski 2y agoIt's relative. Think of the US as a collection of small countries, comparable to the EU, and it's a little easier to understand. I know relatively little about European gun laws, but I imagine that the gun laws in Romania and the Czech Republic are quite different, and that the Czech would argue Romania is "hostile toward it's citizens possessing and bearing firearms." Texas would argue California is. California would argue the UK is.
- pc86 2y agoTexas has more regulations than people think. It's the only "gun-friendly"[0] state I can think of that not only requires classes, but also a certain level of marksmanship - if memory serves you have to put 7 rounds in a piece of paper at 7 yards within 10 seconds or something. [0] on the US scale of friendly-to-unfriendly :)
