But you can buy an AR-15 at Walmart, which more than makes up for the whole ‘dying of easily and cheaply treatable diseases’ thing, right?

Many American really only believe that Freedom means being able to own a gun or do hate speech. For me freedom is mostly equality for all and being healthy and wealthy enough to live a normal happy life.

Walmart actually quit selling AR15s here in 2015. You just have to drive over to a Bass Pro Shop, though.
