WHY EVERYONE AND YOUR GRANDMOTHER NEEDS AN AR-15?

by Anatoly IVANOV

POLITICS / SOCIETY / ESSAYS

A well-researched, superbly edited, humorous video explaining why every American, especially a senior, needs an AR-15 gun. In all seriousness.

Or how to build the perfect straw man with a bit of a circular thing goin’.

His logic: US civilians need the same firearms as their military, because their military has been using firearms developed by the private sector for private use…

All the while, avoiding to discuss the failure of Americans to organize and fund a government that would provide a quality of life not requiring a grandmother to live with an AR-15 gun (as if she’s in some Afghanistan?) 🤷🏻‍♂️

Oh, and… yes, speaking of other countries. The author does say that all the non-armed grandmothers of the world have been in grave danger. Like, you know, Japan? Taiwan? People outliving most Americans?

Reminds me of gastric bypass surgery to “solve” morbid obesity.
