In this respect, they are only marginally different than most people here (although they do have a long ways to go).

Now its a completely different story they use them to pursue acts of terror. That is unacceptable. I am 100% certain they will be swiftly exterminated if it ever comes to that.

Best case scenario, they buy weapons, realize what they have, feel better, and learn some responsibility as a result. I do believe that an armed society is a polite/respectful society, even in the case of left vs right. I learned this through my interest in firearms. And I do hope they realize this at some point as well.
Damn, and I thought I was a dreamer.....
