RELATED TOPICS (scivillage): Biden calls for weapons ban while freeing international arms dealer ..... Nobody needs an AR-15 for hunting

FOREWORD: I confess that I originally thought this video was a doctored spoof that people were having fun with. Regardless, as Colion Noir reminds detractors below, the original intent to allow the population guns wasn't grounded in hunting and taming a dangerous frontier.
However, gun control in Russia is arguably weakened enough now that the ruminant orientations of its citizens might have more to do with an inability to overthrow an authoritarian government. Or perhaps the ownership situation is too new to have attained that stage. Or it's just a pragmatic dread -- repeatedly supported by Russia's history -- that an equally bad or worse regime would simply replace the existing one, in the course of a power vacuum (out of the frying pan into the fire).
With respect to the firearm situation in China, that particular area of ownership oppression might still be sufficient to serve as an excuse (among others).
In lax, impoverished, and less surveillance-heavy corners of the world, an effective underground is potentially possible for funneling illegal weapons to rebel organizations. (But ironically, some of those governments haven't been quite or severely tyrannical with a capital T -- instead, it's often an extremist group wanting to set up the latter after bringing down the existing state.)

EXCERPTS: Your boy Biden has stated or implied over and over and over again that you don't need an AR-15 to hunt a deer. [...] I've said it before and I'll say it again, that saying you don't need an AR-15 to hunt a deer is a stupid argument. The second amendment is not about hunting. The word hunting appears nowhere in the second amendment. The second amendment is about the people having arms to protect this country from tyrannical governments. There's no getting around that. But let's just say for the sake of argument that the second amendment was about hunting. In Texas we have a severe feral hog problem...
