Guns are part of the American culture after all. That's why even Bernie Sanders voted down gun restrictions because his Vermont contituents-- in spite being liberal--are avid hunters and would not have him voting the other way.
Handguns are generally semi-automatic, concealable, and not useful for hunting. They are also the weapons most used to kill people.
Rifles and shotguns aren't concealable and can be used for hunting.
In this store they only carry hunting rifles (and I don't think any are semi-automatic), though unfortunately the 21 law doesn't prohibit the purchase of semiautomatic rifles like AR-15s to 18-20 year olds in other stores.
Power has little to do with lethality, in so far as your average citizen is concerned. A .22, the "weakest" caliber you're going to commonly find in a firearm, will kill you just fine. A 9mm, one of the most common pistol cartridges, has no problem killing. A faster moving, more powerful, rifle cartridge ends up having the same effective ability against a regular person.
This ends up meaning that factors other than the firearms strength is what we control for. Pistols are insanely easy to conceal, meaning you're more likely to get into a favorable position to use one, compared to a much larger rifle that's going to draw a ton of attention walking around with. Same principle as sawn-off shotguns being illegal in some places, too easy to conceal.
This... This must be a shoop.
More than likely someone moved signage from the school supplies section to here as a joke. There's 0% chance Walmart would allow this
Customer prank, employee error, or shoop.

It's all real signage. Probably just took the banner from the back to school section as a joke
Doubtful. More likely somebody took the sight and put it up there for the pic.
You might be surprised to learn that leftists also own weapons.
Pretty hard to do any guillotining when your enemies are armed and you aren't.
Some people went to create Socialist Rifle Association, but unlike NRA, they are pro-gun control.

This is the oldest shit post I've seen in a looong time.
Yet sadly somehow still as relevant as ever.
Is this real?
chat is this real cause it kinda seems like it
What do the black and blue warnings say?
The front black ones say you have to be 21 to purchase a handgun, 18 for a rifle.
Not American so I'm unfamiliar with freedom, but why does the more powerful gun have a more lax age restriction?

Thanks for clearing that up!

In my headcanon its the eula for Fortnite or something.
We'll see who's laughing when you have to punch holes in paper but the paper is really far away.
