I am not very informed but I never support that civilians should have rifles or form militias, i disagree with a lot of people here that are pro gun, like I said if you live in America some sort of tool is important for self defense given how attacks can happen in unlikely places, i give example of Palestinian kid who was stabbed to death in his own home by a right winger who was inspired by Israel/Palestinian conflict, now on left side you have 2 trans people who shot up Catholic churches, and now this attack of Charlie.
everyone is on the edge, people go out to school to study but majority of mass shooting happen in American schools, people go out to protest (XYZ) that's where mostly incidents like people driving car or trucks into crowd happen, and Jewish temples were attack, Catholic schools are attacked ,and Mosques are attacked. More Guns or More Police is answer? Americans don't like either, people hate when cops stop them, if you are stop as black guy its racial profiling, if white right winger is stop and ask for credentials they were like I know my rights blah blah... This political gap within American society is gonna get worse.
