The same reason they keep saying that America's gun ownership is a magic spell to ward off tyranny. It's a security blanket that makes them feel better.
That's the thing, a lot of brain dead idiots think that owning firearms is some magic talisman that wards off tyranny, but it's actually the use of them that's key. And what do we see so many on the right do when tyranny rolls in? They calmly comply with law enforcement and get carted off to jail to suffer the whims of the tyrants of the current era. I don't see anyone out there actually using those firearms to ward off tyranny with the exception of the recent vigilante assassin.
But sure, keep propagating the message that guns are a magical bulwark without coupling it with the far less palatable message that you need to be willing to shed blood if you wish to keep yourself free. Anyone can buy a gun, but very few people are ready to kill someone.
The trouble with firearms is that there is no option below "lethal force" so when tyranny comes slowly and creeping you can' do anything about it because there is no response that would be justified.
So many boating accidents, how unfortunate.
Why do people say this like it's a magic spell that'll somehow make police go away?

How do you think we got our independence?
Throwing insults like canadians? Nah we actually had to fight for it, and that woulda been dumb to bring knives to a gun fight.
