What SHOULD have happened was they were converted culturally and then had rights restored,
So basically "we will only allow you weapons once we've brainwashed you to think the way we want you to think"
Gee i wonder if that doesn't set any bad precedence. Like i dont know.... Leftists taking away guns from right wingers and deciding to only give the guns back after they've brainwashed right wingers to become leftists
I think the problem is you're assuming all cultures are equal and hence deserve the same constitutional rights. Nah. I wouldn't trust quite a few nationalities to freely own guns
If not all cultures are equal, then America doesn't have the right to impose its values on to every other country because other cultures would naturally be better off under different type of governance and not every country or culture would fit the American style of governance .Yet America has continuously justified every war its been in as "trying to fight the evil authoritarians" and acting like other countries are less moral for not having the "free democracy or republic" that America does. Claiming you fight for freedom and acting like everyone else is morally inferior for having less freedom, whilst you also ban citizens of another country from owning weapons is the height of hypocrisy.
And actually, America has been interfering with other countries affairs since day one. One of America's founding fathers Thomas Jefferson even supported the French revolution and helped rewrite some of the new French constitution, just because he didn't like monarchy even though the French revolution was literally a proto communist revolution
I mean Japanese women were killing their babies and bundling them up in blankets with live grenades and explosive devices
It's 1/2 dozen vs 6 in this case, they couldn't be trusted with weapons but technically every free man has a right to defend themselves.
What SHOULD have happened was they were converted culturally and then had rights restored, but that's fairy land where government isn't crooked
