Because guns are more reliable and safer than a crudely made jar of fuel that can rupture and burn to death the inexperienced user.
Not saying a gun can’t hurt grandma but significantly less than a mason jar of kerosene.

Because an AR-15 is an infinitely better weapon than a Molotov cocktail in 90% of situations.

Sure thing, sweetie.You know I’m an infantry vet, right?
Don’t cut yourself with all that edge.
Civvies suck. Real protection of freedoms is joining the military and fighting for them. The U.S. and Ukraine need actual trained populations, like in Switzerland, not rednecks who love guns cuz they're cool, like in the U.S. Mandatory conscription is needed with extensive rifle training, not shmucks with "muh secund amendmants"

The solution was better preparedness for just this situation. Military should have stockpiled far far more rifles than it needs. enough to arm the populace. but locked away, miles away from any schools and shopping malls and lunatic ammosexuals

Yeah, but it's the Ukrainian military I'm talking about.
