In California you can only buy torches and pitchforks that are approved by the state. Guess how many inexpensive ones are approved (lol, none). If you want to carry your torch or pitchfork outside of your house it either needs to be locked in a box or you need to buy a permit, which runs about $1200. There's also a fee for a background check anytime you want to buy torch fuel, and they're raising it by 500%.
Ok but to be fair, do you want it to be easier for idiots to burn your state down?
Ok I typed that and immediately realized an idiot can probably still buy a Bic. Maybe... Maybe I'm an idiot
I'm actually talking about guns, and yes, they should be easier to get. The government and the wealthy should concern themselves with improving material conditions to avoid unrest instead of trying to monopolize the capacity for violence.
Oh. Uh. I support access to firearms for things like environmental conservation, but people with them are more of a danger to themselves, including myself. I'll support your right to defend yourself, but I won't go down that road further mentally. Wish you the best though
