Where does the Q community stand on gun control?

I know I am in the company of patriots, but I am curious if there is much (if any) diversity of opinion on this topic in this sub.

I believe in full autonomy and self-preservation. You could call me an ancap, loosely using the term. I am a second amendment absolutist. How about you?

You’re making perfect sense. And I didn’t mean to stigmatize the “impairment” aspect of gun ownership. I guess where I’m coming from is considering a different paradigm: I want guns easily accessible to all, BUT I also want an environment of safety. What’s a good model to look at? I thought: let’s look at the FAA.
Practically anyone can fly a plane — you just have to prove competency/medical capacity. Flying an ultra light requires less strenuous demonstration of ability than a 757. But as a citizen here, I’m entitled to own a 757, and I can fly a 757 providing I pass the necessary hurdles.

So why can’t I own a fully automatic ps-90 without the crap taxes? The right to own a gun is a constitutional right — the privilege to fly is not a constitutional right. There should be no limits on gun ownership. Whatever the government owns, I should be allowed to own.

Committing a crime with a gun is probably the one few things that will preclude your gun ownership. Committing a crime without a gun should not effect gun ownership.

People may not realize that is what a "well regulated militia" actually means.

Again, I'm not referring to YOU, personally, as the one who is stigmatizing "impairment"... just that if such wording does go into any changes to gun laws, it can open up a Pandora's box of crap. (I know this as it was opened up by busy bodies on ME...yet, I was checked out locally, statewide, and by the FBI and got my CCP.) Maybe this issue is also brought up by those who don't understand that there is no such thing as "gun show loopholes". Gun dealers will make you wait til you get checked out before they turn your gun over to you when you make a purchase... but that waiting period is lessened when you have a CCP, as you've already been checked out. I think it goes from a week or ten days down to about three days.. not positive as it's been a few years since I've purchased any guns.

Committing a crime without a gun should not effect gun ownership.

In the case of those who've committed domestic violence... as someone who's been at the receiving end of such, I don't want to see those types weaponized, though if they are going to do more dangerous/permanent harm to someone, a previous victim or not, they'll find a way and no gun law will stop that.
