Nobody needs an AR-15 or an AK-47 for “self-defense.”

What would you recommend instead? This isn't a gotcha, I'm honestly curious.

There are many kinds of guns that can be used for self-defense. Guns like the A.R.-15 and AK-47 are intended only to massacre people. They are military rifles and should not be available for civilian use.

Semi automatic rifles are actually best for home defense in rural areas.

But there are plenty of civilian guns that fire the same type of bullets as ARs and AKs.

1/ I would strongly disagree and the reason is that our country is divisive by nature due to the type of government we have. Democracy is a breeding ground for indifference. That’s a FACT. We are a strong nation but we are a young nation. But look at our country… we’re dividing

No military uses either rifle in the form available to civilians. The fact that you don’t take the time to learn this means you are not serious about resolving the problem

you dont understand that self defense against an invader or even a government gone mad and corrupted that has become a corporately owned authoritarian system would take more than a small hand gun or an old single shot hunting rifle or even a bold action rifle.

Please.. PLEASE, for the sake of finding real effective solutions to this problem- please don’t repeat blanket statements like this that are not based in fact. It doesn’t help youtube.com/5ZoYEiui7iM

You need to research more. The military does not use AR-15s. A.R. 15s are rather wimpy little guns designed and marketed for the civilian “defense“ rifle market.
