    Jokes aside tho, all Marxist-Leninists that CAN learn a combat sport/self defense, definitely should. If you have the opportunity to learn how to legally use a firearm, or own one, I suggest that highly as well. And firearms while less legal, can be used by disabled comrades that can’t pick up combat sports or self defense training

      Statistically speaking, firearms tend to make you and those around you less safe. If you do get one, just make sure it’s safely locked away.

        I understand the statistics, but I’m skeptical of the idea that guns inherently make you and those around you less safe. I think discipline, peaceful conflict resolution skills and a healthy dose of reason mitigate the effects/risks of gun misuse.
