An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.
In the U.S., you cannot buy firearms unless you're an official U.S. citizen. However, it is entirely possible to rent firearms and shoot them at a shooting range that offers rental firearms. People visiting from out of the country tend to be able to do that. Just don't go to states like California, New York, Illinois, Washington, New Jersey, and any of the other heavily blue states. Still, if you intend to use a shotgun to off yourself, that can be pretty hard to do at a shooting range as others will be present, and might be able to quickly intervene and stop you. Depends on timing I suppose, how many people are around, and how quickly you can aim the shotgun in your mouth before someone tackles you.
As far as buying guns in the EU, I'm afraid I'm not much of an expert. I know it is possible to buy shotguns and lever-action rifles in the U.K., and I believe Switzerland also allows for ownership of firearms. Still, as is with anything firearm-related in the EU, you'll probably have to jump through some hoops with getting enough licensing and certification to be able to buy a firearm. Which country are you in?
Not entirely true: you can be what's called a "resident alien." An acquaintence of mine carries a German passport but has lived here long enough to gain Resident Alien status; he not only owns guns, but has his concealed carry permit. However, that status takes a significant commitment and time in the country.
