i'm somewhat anti-gun. They're cool as shit but at the same time they're deadly weapons and i think that other non-lethal methods of self defence (stun guns, pepper spray etc) would still be effective in most circumstances. What do you guys think?

People should have the right to own guns, however, because people shouldn't use force against each other, they would be needed only for sports and self defense.

i agree people should have the right to own guns and use them for sport/hunting and self defence, but i personally wouldn't use one for self defence because i don't think it's always nessesary to use lethal force to protect yourself.

I feel the people only need guns, until the state is overthrown and our initial society is created. We can keep them now as our main defense against the state, once our goal is accomplished though, I feel guns will also fade into the category as another unnecessary item

I am Pro gun and that always makes me seem less leftist until I explain why. I used to be very Anti-Gun and thought the only excuse to be pro gun is "Guns are cool, I hate Obama how can I kill these Mexicans without my boomstick" But then as I started to gain more understanding of anarchy and started to get onboard with the necessity of revolution, Now I find it ridiculous that a governing body can take arms away from its people while that governing body is still allowed to have arms. So while I think that It would be ideal that people come to the conclusion that they no longer need guns after the power has been returned to the people instead of the minority, I dont think any government should have the ability to take them away from its people.

Very pro gun. The people need the power to defend against the state or tyranny, and especially against possible counter-revolutionaries.

I strongly oppose banning anything, as it doesn't work.

it would be hard for me and my fellow Aussie comrades to revolt as guns were heavily restricted after the port author massacre in 96.

I'm very pro-gun, they are a very essential tool for revolution and the overthrow of capitalism and the state, and also a great way for self-defense.

It would only make you seem less leftist if you equate liberal progressivism with the left. American liberals are not leftist. The true left is traditionally pro-gun.
