As a gunowner, I would sleep better at night if I knew that my guns are just decorations.

It would be win-win to just turn all the guns into decorations that can't be used by anyone else. I would sleep better at night if I knew that my guns are just decorations that can't be used by anyone else.<br><br>You wouldn't be giving anything up, you would still have your own right to keep and bear arms, both as an individual and as part of a militia of your local community. And everyone else would still have the right to keep and bear arms. So, everyone would still have the right to keep and bear arms.<br><br>All you'd have to do is take your guns to a licensed gun dealer, or to a government designated drop off center. Then they'd either have it properly destroyed, or send it to a third party country, either as foreign aid, or as a foreign arms sale. And then you could use the guns you turned in as decorations, such as wall decorations, or as a reminder of your patriotism.<br><br>I don't think there should be any requirements for turning in your guns, or any paperwork. Just bring them in, and you can take them back as decorations after they've been properly disabled. Why do you need a working firearm? Do you need it to protect yourself from drug cartels? It must suck to be that type of criminal that needs to worry about drug cartels. But, hey, I'm sure it's all worth it for the money.<br><br>And if you think that your guns would be useful for overthrowing the government, then you're not thinking big picture enough. A lot of governments around the world have been overthrown by their citizens, but it's always the same outcome. A new government forms, usually worse than the previous one. Not one single example in history of a government being overthrown by the citizens, that actually made the country better. Not one. So, if you think that your best option is to overthrow the government, then you're doing it wrong.<br><br>The best way to make the government and society better is to make yourself better. Educate yourself, train yourself, and improve yourself. All we need is a better population, and that automatically makes for a better society and government. All we need is a better individual, and we'll have a better world, with better governments. It's so simple. Just focus on yourself.<br><br>So, I think it would be best for everyone to turn in their guns. So that everyone can have one less problem to worry about. And you won't have to worry about your guns being taken away, because you'd be turning them in yourself.<br><br>It would be win-win to just give up your guns. Both you and everyone else would win. And you'd be a patriot for turning in your guns. You'd be a patriot to protect society and the children.<br><br>So, let's all just give up our guns. Let's all just give up our guns peacefully. It would be best for everyone.
