Well for starters, we can’t just buy a gun in a supermarket. You seem to not actually know what you’re talking about and just get information from memes.

When my government would turn complete authoritarian fascist, I would love it if I could just buy a gun in the local supermarket.

The democrat states/cities have much harsher gun laws. The republican states/cities aren’t going to resist Trump. If more people would move to the left we would see more anti-fascist gun resistance (think Black Panther Party). But since people still believe that we can fix this decades-long decline by voting in the right Democrats, we’re going to have to learn the hard way.

I’m assuming from the way your comment is worded that you’re not from the U.S.
Blue states tend to have much stricter gun laws, as another user pointed out. For example, in California, “Assault Rifles” are banned. You most certainly cannot walk into a supermarket and buy an AR-15. As far as i’m aware, most major retailers including Walmart don’t sell guns at all in California. Even handguns have a maximum magazine capacity. No more than 10 rounds. Much less than your standard Glock or Sig Sauer.
I’d also like to point out that “Buying a gun in the local supermarket” is a little bit of a misconception. It’s true that some superstores sell guns, but they aren’t right next to the milk and bread. They’re in locked cabinets in a specific part of the store where you’ll also find other hunting equipment. The whole point of a superstore/supermarket is that they sell everything in one place as opposed to the pre-supermarket days where you had to go to multiple different stores just to get your weekly shopping supplies.

Over here, we don’t need to buy guns with our weekly shopping supplies. We have liquor over 20% alcohol in a different section of the store. Can’t even buy cigarettes at the supermarket. Even slingshots and batons are illegal here. Did you know, with a 10 round magazine you can still kill 10 people before reloading? If your aim is right. That’s an acceptable amount? As those magazine sizes are allowed.
