![RidOfGuns.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmPdWqTk82TDRMMtY2CV7kUCP9Af1iTHKj5BpdEJ6uZyme/RidOfGuns.png) Many people are scared of guns, and so, they want to get rid of guns. And, they are under the assumption that the govern-cement can just ban them, and there will be no more guns. But, that doesn't work. It cannot work. Because you would need a group of people WITH GUNS to enforce the rest of the people having no guns. And that has worked out sooooo well, in NAZI Germany, in Cuba, in China, in Cambodia… Every great destruction of life, by the govern-cement always starts with taking the guns from the people. Of course, that isn't what the "get rid of guns people" wanted, but it is a direct result of their actions. A different path has to be discovered. AND!!! the "get rid of gun people" have to honestly define what they want. - - - - - - -

## Delving into what the anti-gun crowd is asking for The "get rid of guns people" are afraid. Not really for themselves, but other people being shot. They feel pain when they hear of other people being shot and killed. And it is such an easy leap, to go from "i do not want other people to be shot" to guns are bad and the problem. (because blaming bad people also ends up with them feeling bad) So, they are ignoring the actual causes, and blaming the lifeless, inanimate tool. Then they naively believe that if the tool is removed, then no more violence will done. You can follow this logic down, down down, to where everyone should be placed in a little rubber room, or in a life-support pod. Where they are separated from all other people and are safe from danger. Perfectly safe. Perfectly lonely. Perfectly bored out of their minds. Removing guns does not stop violence. In fact, it actively makes it worse. A person in the UK, with a gun, can just walk into someone else's tenement (not even waiting for a time when they are out) and rob the place, and do whatever they want with the people there. And they can do that, because good people with guns are not there as a deterrent. - - - - - - -

## What the anti-gun crowd actually want The "get rid of guns people" want to feel safe. Not really physically safe, because they do things that will seriously hurt them all the time. And not fun things like skiing down cliff like faces, or face jumping, or bmx biking. No, they do things like get in people's faces and yell at them for their perceived slights. Many women will slap a man, thinking that they are perfectly safe to do so. Or get in front of an armed police officer and yell at them. It is only be they other groups' restraint that they are not all dead. (and the anti-gun crowd never accept this reality) What is really frustrating is that America (and many other countries) are going to separate into areas of gun and no-gun. (else the gun people will shoot all the no-gun people in self defense). What is sad is that the gun-people will have what the no-gun people want. A fairly safe, and civil society, with lots of mutual support. The no-gun people's area will be lawless, people destroying everything around them, no harmony, no protection, no mutual support. Basically a bunch of gangs, and you are either with the gangs, or you are on your own. What the no-gun people really want is a group that is made up of highly morally conscious individuals. But, to get to this state, you must get over the "self-defense" hurdle. You must accept that there are bad people, and they either need to be punished/corrected or forcefully removed from their area. And this must be done until all people are highly morally conscious. The gun is not the problem. It is a tool, just like hammers, knives, rocks, sticks… The morality of the society (lowest common denominator stuff) is everything. - - - - - - -

## There are two ways to get rid of guns 1. Build phasers / blasters / lasers 2. Improve society where everyone knows how to negotiate in a win-win way. And keep improving it until no one feels that they need a gun to stay safe. (yes, even from wild animals) So, basically, if you build a better gun, people will give up their guns, for blasters. There! All the guns are gone. The other way involves deep introspection, on the part of everyone. One of the best ways to start this is to arm EVERYONE! Every house has a person, with a gun, that is trained to use it. (Like how Switzerland used to be. Lowest crime) When everyone feels they can defend themselves, then they can negotiate. Not just beg. (if they are armed, and you are not, the negotiation is lopsided) Every person needs to learn to negotiate a win-win solution. This takes a lot of imagination, to think outside the box. But even more important is that you, each and every person, must be able to see what the other person wants. They must be able to empathize with the other side of the negotiation. ESPECIALLY, when they are of a different religion, or believe very different things. (if you are a woman who is really for women's liberation, and you are dealing with a burka demanding man, can you comprehend the other person's perspective and understand what they want??? If you want to negotiate a win-win, then you have to be able to do this) This is not easy. And most not-guns people are actively opposed to this. They are very sure that their thinking is right and correct. So much so that they demand the law makers to force everyone to think the way they do. (and that never works) We have a long way to go, but we can get there. Intentional communities (finding your "family") in the near future will greatly help this. Those who cannot change yet, will get with people that are similar to them, and a few people from that group, who CAN empathize with the other communities will be the negotiators. And people will learn to let them do what they want over there, as long as they are not harming anyone else. (not harming means that they are not polluting the environment, and that they are not enslaving or keeping people from leaving) There is so much that each person needs to learn. We have a long way to go. And so, i suggest you get started as early as possible. - - - - - - -

Getting rid of the guns would not have stopped any of the "mass-shootings" we saw on TV. Even if they were started naturally, what the TV showed us was a VERY SPECIFIC picture to make you afraid. And if you analyze actual shootings what you find is that a good person, with a gun, stopped them dead. So many of these instances end with only the gun-person being dead. And we never hear about them. The, made-for-TV-mass-shooter-movies are specifically designed to get you to give up your power, and to make you afraid. The fear is amped up. The people's responses are focussed on the hysterical. The gun is blamed. And the made-for-TV-story has so many holes in it, so that you can make it mean anything. Stopping the lies in reporting is the first, biggest step, to getting the anti-gun crowd to start feeling safe. Many people have advised to "stop watching the news". If you must check out the news, then get it in written form. And remember the phrase "how many more shooting will it take until you give up your guns" is a threat. The people behind it want the population unable to defend themselves (remember Hitler? Stalin? Pol Pot? Chairman Mao?…) and they will go to any lengths to get you to give up your guns. And, of course, they will lie to you about it. Getting rid of guns, the correct way, is a long path. And it starts with you. Not you giving up your guns, but you learning to empathize and create a win-win solution. - - - - - - -
