This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

lol no. Maybe in the past but now there's a background check and often a mandatory waiting period before you can just walk out with a gun.

In fairness you could probably just walk out with it if you do what Arnie does in the movie...

America? Probably (dunno what guns laws are like Bolivia or the other American countries). The US America? Definitely!

In South America you just find guns on the street on the bodies of dead gang members x)

In California not sure about back in the 70s but not now at the very least. Ya have to find the dubiously sane redneck and buy it at a premium. Note if the ATF asks then ya say you found it in the desert cause if ya snitch you will become very aware of the fact that a surprising number of California Rednecks "went backpacking in Ireland" during the troubles and brought back what they learned if ya catch my drift.
