Trump became President and I decided to start the process to get guns.

Conservative Americans in shambles reading this as they find out that we do Infact own guns in Canada and are proud to own them. We just don't get all fucking pussy about not being able to own fully automatic ones with 50 round magazines lol.

Liberal American here, for a long time conservatives here have miscalculated how well armed many of us are. The anti-gun crowd (not to be confused with gun control) are just the vocal minority on the issue, giving the impression that liberals hate guns. My gun safe begs to differ, and I own more guns than any conservative I know.

Have you considered that you might be a leftist and not a liberal?

Don't forget to practice regularly.

Say it louder; get disqualified from gun ownership. You're not allowed to own guns because you think one day you might shoot people with them.

I GOT A GUN TO SO I CAN HUNT ANIMALS BECAUSE LEARNING TO PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE AND SHARING FOOD IS HOW WE ARE GOING TO GET THROUGH THE NEXT FOUR YEARS.

Surely you could grow more food than you can hunt.

Home and/or personal defense are perfectly valid reasons for gun ownership. I don't want to use my gun on a person but I absolutely purchased it because I think I may have to someday.
