In Israel, civilian gun ownership is a privilege, not a right, requiring a permit from the Interior Ministry, with strict regulations and eligibility criteria, and a focus on self-defense and security needs.
Here's a more detailed breakdown of Israel's civilian gun ownership laws:
1. No Right to Bear Arms:
2. Eligibility Criteria:
3. Permit Requirements:
4. Loosening of Restrictions (Post-October 7, 2023):
Actually Israeli gun laws are rather strict. Its not some sort of free range paradise.
If you are too individualistic or you aren't seeking a virtual club or gang to derive meaning from-you'll find the DR a very miserable, catty and bitchy place where no one ever achieves anything but everyone acts as if their twitter arguments are world revolutionary discourses on which the future of humanity turns.

Living or working in areas deemed dangerous, or in professions that encounter unsafe situations, increases eligibility.

I'd say in principle this is true for the DR sub factions in general-you are either a brownnosing team player or you are kicked to the curb. Flatter the "leaders" and don't deviate from whatever the line at the moment is or be quickly shown the virtual door. At some level I can understand why this is so-twitter sub factions are basically clubs/gangs and followers in and of themselves have no inherent value beyond allegiance and following the will of the leader-in the case of twitter, agreeing and amplifying(and if you do come up with your own stuff-its basically just stuff your leader can repost and retweet-in essence you are helping them develop their brand/ideology-call it offshoring).It’s really incredible how many similarities exist between BAPtards and the groypers. They really want to present this false dichotomy where you have to choose one or the other.
