If anyone has ever wondered what the 2nd Amendment is all about, look no further than the possible invasion of Ukraine by Russia. Citizens are now being trained with firearms to help defend against the possible invasion, and they’re doing so on a last-minute basis.
Firearm ownership in Ukraine isn’t that high, with roughly 6.6 guns per 100 citizens. Compare that to the US with 120.5 guns per 100 citizens, and you can easily see the contrast.
Gun ownership in the country happens on a may-issue basis, and concealed carry permits are indeed a thing but incredibly rare to obtain. If you are a lucky citizen to own a firearm, it must be stored in a safe and unloaded at all times when not in use.
If a country were to invade the US by land, they’d be up against not only the military, but millions of armed citizens who would use their right to gun ownership to defend what’s theirs.
