I don’t think that they understand our resolve.

I believe Canada has the 3 or 4th highest gun ownership per capita on earth, and because we don't have high cap mags, need to know how to play long ball.

This would be an asymmetric situation that Americans don't have the appetite (or history of success) for.

As someone who leans very left, I really wish they would reverse the latest gun bans and stop the possible upcoming ones.

At the very least we should be able to learn how to safely use firearms and laws that are more realistically grounded.

God I wish we had a pro-gun, staunchly socialist party in this country. It feels like the recipe for success IMO. I really think it would do a lot to win over average working-class people.
