You can see it is an American post because there is no option of "total ban"
- Because of muh right to form an armed militia and, should the shit actually hit the fan, hide in my cellar quivering like the fuckin coward I am
  😂
  
  It's wild how the right to form a well-regulated militia includes leaving semiautomatic handguns where children can get them, but what can you do?
- Praise the Founders for our glorious Constitution. I continually celebrate the fact that none of the morons who hate freedom have the ability to take our gun rights from us. Our gun rights will outlive you all, thanks to the strong protections the Supreme Court have bolstered that amendment with in the past 2 decades.
- What country has a “total” ban on firearms?
  
  Total ban for civilians within population centres, where there is nothing to shoot save people, is totally normal everywhere except Burgerland.

- Love Washington crying over the beautiful sight!
  
  Y-y-yeah that's it, t-t-that's why he's crying alright. I mean, ~~I'm~~ he's not crying, shut up! /s :-P

What the hell is a "private city"?
- Bioshock, but instead of getting problematic superpowers you just rent everything
  
  Or maybe those corporate boroughs in Snow Crash.
- People are quoting sci-fi examples but they have been tried (and many failed) in the past. They are cities built, owned and operated by a corporation like Ford with Fordlandia in Brazil. Rent? Shops? All company-run.
  Technically Disney has their own special district in Florida and have a lot of Government-like powers over it.
  
  Oh so it’s a company town?
  Round here we learned what do do to them. We fucking kill you if you try.
  
  Do people live there on a permanent basis though or does it just run a commercial enterprise?
- Dunno, imagined something like Kowloon Walled City.
  
  Fascinating. Sounds like a shit place to live and and an awesome place to visit.
  
  Or something like Rapture XD
- Company Towns on a larger scale

What's the problem ? Everyone like a good bit of Roleplaying game, no ?

I’m pretty libertarian but I’ve also seen the spray paint section of Home Depot so no thanks

Private city lol
Land of the freedom to be exploited, that's what it is

Arm teachers with RPGs.
- Role Playing Games? 🤔 I'm confused.

RPG's for free OUTSIDE every Walmart that have logic in them where they can only be pointed at Walmart

I read the answers before the question and thought “My local Walmart sells RPGs what’s the joke?”
… Thought it meant Role Playing Games. Not firearms.

Depends whether those polled are managing it for perceived quality of life or for maximum lulz.

The US military, the largest “pro-gun” group in the world has lots of “private cities”. Wonder what their position on firearms in their “cities” is?
/s

Say what you will there’d always be work for civil engineers

That's so biaised, of course I'm gonna vote RPGs at Walmart for the meme

Aha! Finally a post where I will be free to say that the USA is an underdeveloped country that is in great need of help since many decades. And for posting this comment I will not attract any attention from Three Letter "Intelligence" Agencies, right ? Right ? /s

The city where noone is bitching at anyone tho

Why is there an apostrophe after the "M"?
Is this a fedora tipping version of the US?

What does RPG stands for in this context?
- Rocket propelled grenade
