Sorry if this is not the place for that kind of discussion. I would like to be civil, please. Some people on Reddit were talking about how only dictators would want to disarm people.

Can I have some explanation on your opinion and why? I believe weapons should be banned and that crime should not exist in the first place. My opinion may change, but I believe there should somehow be strict rules regarding crime to reduce the amount of it and just have a place where it will not be worried about.

Oh noooo, that's terrible, I didn't want that at all

It'd definitely be a good thing. Point is, getting rid of cars won't be a good thing until effective alternatives are actually available.
