Reading things like this makes it make sense as to why the government is putting big efforts into reducing legal gun ownership (and the type of guns targeted, ex. 50 cal rifles) instead of going after criminals and makes sense of things like the Online Harms Bill... The elites are trying to prevent a repeat of 1789 France or 1917 Russia.

Perfect example of how correlation does not imply causation. If you take a second to think about what you've written, it should be quite obvious that the people who are buying guns, and thus don't support stricter regulation, also tend to educate themselves more about gun laws. It seems you've reversed cause and effect.
