If you're pitching Y'all Qaeda, moar gunz and open carry, I'm gonna need to level with you: there's gonna be very, VERY few other countries that will be a good fit.

It's been 30+ years since I even cared to carry a weapon, and that just for infantry where you sometimes need it for work. "I should get a gun" hasn't been a thought in my head until very occasionally in the last 6 months. And even that was followed by "nah. I'll get a rock. They'll bring me a gun".

If you can leave, blending into your new country will require adjustment.

not pitching that at all. i am saying in context with how the gov operates in the US they won’t “risk” the projectile feedback that may happen if they do major ice work in those states. heck cops won’t even stop a school shooting in tx because they are scared.

i’m a legally licensed owner and a leftist. i’d happily sell the few range plinkers i have and move if i could find a tech job. plus i always have “these guns” 💪💪
