I find it even more worrying that you are equivalencing the fear of a military invasion to the desire to keep assault weapons.

If Taiwan gets invaded, it ceases to exist. You are saying to lose your precious guns means America would die... Which I guess, I HAVE heard online very frequently. In the same breath as claiming Obama is a communist dictator.

And that's why I say it is asinine. You actually believe your assault rifles is the reason you can still be safe in your own country. That says more about America than anything else. Note that the same mentality exists in the likes of Afghanistan.
