      Being able to purchase something doesn’t mean it’s legal.

          I can purchase a lot of stuff that’s illegal to buy.

              Do you think people just get drugs or illegal guns or whatever as gifts?

                I’m sorry homie!

                What I said was rude, and uncalled for.

                But guns are more regulated than I think you believe. Even in the fascist states.

                  Thanks.

                  I didn’t say they weren’t fairly regulated. In fact, being purchased illegally implies they’re regulated to some extent. Again though, you can illegally purchase them, obviously. Black markets exist, which means you can purchase things that are illegal to purchase.

                    I don’t know if I’m trying to start an argument by saying this, but I don’t think they are “fairly” regulated.

                    They are more arbitrarily regulated.

                    I’m not the only one to think so in my rural community. So I hope that gives you some hope for our country’s future.
