Seriously, doesn't this guy look cool? That sword is so badass!
>>
>>673018847
This. Guns are practical for practical for self-defense, hunting, overthrowing the government, or just about any other application where efficient killing is a necessity.

Swords are only practical for looking like a complete tool.

>>673018972
He looks like a moron that just finished playing a bad RPG
>>
>>673018946
Yes it is, all swords are autist level.

Another serious question, what about pocket knives? Those aren't efficient for killing but you don't call someone who collects them an autistic.
>>
>>673018972
>I think autism is cool!
>>
>>673018776
historical sword collections, or in their function accurate replicas are okay, but usually its katana fags and fantasy weapons bullshit wich of course paints the whole sword collecting thing in an autistic light.
>>
>>673019204
They are still useful.
>>
>>673019204
They're efficient for self defense. You can't carry a fucking sword around.
>>
>>673018776
It isn't to collect military sabers & case knives. Machetes, even a broadsword.

It's cringe cause 10/10 it's anime fantasy blades.....
>>
>>673019204
Pocket knives get a pass because they still have practical applications. As long as they're made for utility rather than some faggy aesthetic bullshit.

So long as you're not going into any government buildings, it should be okay. Just say you're a cosplayer.
>>
>>673019842
That could be said for most of the dipshits in this thread.
>>
>>673018776
Because swords are a phallic symbol, indicating that you'd rather suck your enemies cock instead of killing them.

So, to recap, unless you'd like to suck enemy dick, get a gun...

>>673019842
It wasn't funny.

Why not collect both? Living in an area where hunting is the only thing to do, I've got a good sized collection of various weaponry. Although the only sword I have is my great great grandfather's sabre

It's autistic to collect anything period.
Well adjusted people are content with just enough of what they need.
There is no need for swords, but in America there is a need for a gun.

No, you delusional fuckwit, collecting guns is no less autistic than collecting swords. Collecting x is no more autistic than collecting y, it's just what that individual gets enjoyment from. You have a brain, fucking use it cunt.

>>673020107
There was a book with that premise. It was called Dies The Fire, by S.M. Sterling. It's actually a whole series, like 9 books. But bullets don't work because of an emp that changed that atmosphere. So it plunged the world back into the dark ages. Pretty fucking cool.

EMPs effect electronic equipment. Guns are not electronic.

If there's still bullets in the apocalypse there's still going to be guns, and even after making bullets is simple as smelting metal. I don't see your point, retard.

Unless it's an authentic katana that saw some combat from some time between the 13th century up till WW2, then fuck off.

Olympic fencing is autistic, just like katana fanboys

Stuff must be believeable and follow its own logic. It doesnt have to be real.

If you write about a place were dragons live, fine. But try to think of a believeable way to describe the dragons.

Lord of the Rings for example has a lot of comepltly unrealistic stuff, but it was in itself consistent.

If you just write "lol science and stuff" and have no idea how its supposed to work i think its very silly and spoils it for me.
You want a world without guns? Fine! Good! Great! But think of a reason for it and not just "lol emp" that seems very stupid.

When you watch james bond you expect him to do crazy stunts that are almost impossible in real life. But you wouldnt expect him to fall form an airplane without a parachute, crash into a concrete road, but survive unharmed because he made some shitty kung fu roll or some shit. That would be just unbelieveable and ruin it

Not the guy who you originally replied to btw.
>>
>>673021767
So basically you're saying there is no correlation at all, and you've fabricated it in your mind after viewing a few pictures on the chans? You looked at some pictures and concluded "That guy isn't dressed stylishly or has messy hair, so he must have a mental disability, and he likes katanas so everybody who likes katanas must be mentally handicapped" That's seriously your thought process and you want me to take you seriously? Low functioning autists can demonstrate better brain capacity than you. Have mercy on the gene pool.. Kill yourself.

It was actually a change in the time line of earth. It ties in with another series of his. Nantucket island from our time gets sent to like 3000 bc. 3000 bc island comes to us.

This causes our earth to have some kind of hard reset that screws up the underlying physics of a lot of tech.

Supposedly it all happens because the earth spirits are trying to save us from ourselves or something.

First couple books were cool. Stopped after it turned into lord of the rings.

Do blade machine guns exist?
>>
>>673022832
Okay...

Bullets are metal. But cartridges contain gunpowder which rapidly combusts to create expanding gasses. Those gasses push the bullet down the barrel.

If you fuck with thermodynamics to make it so that level of combustion can't occur then that doesn't work anymore.

But yeah man, it's really just a stupid plot device. If the world ever goes tits up, I'm going to want an AR, not a sword.

It's probably not autistic to collect real swords (even modern-made ones). But collecting replica swords is pretty autistic.

In the same way, collecting replica guns would also be autistic.

>>673023404
Nah man this is pretty true. It's the reason that guns replaced swords.

Swordsman ship takes years to learn. It's why you had the development of warrior classes in most premodern societies. They had to be fed and supported by the rest of the population to give them the time to learn to be effective soldiers.

After the advent of guns that all goes out the window. It's much easier and quicker to arm and train a regiment of conscripted farmers with muskets than to produce highly trained swordsmen.
>>
>>673022986
>>673023118

I didn't say there's anything wrong with being autistic. If it doesn't interfere with anyone else's life, it's fine.

I've collected swords. Not weeaboo or decorative stuff, but individual historical replicas I had made by real blacksmiths. My interest in them died down a lot, though, after I had shoulder surgery a while ago and can't use them for several months to come. I just packed them away in storage and haven't looked at them since. Also sold a few - usually I can get roughly my money back from them since there are a lot of serious (ie. non-weeaboos) "sword people" around these days, especially in Northern and Eastern Europe.

>Why is it autistic to collect swords but totally cool to collect guns?
In my opinion, it's all in your reasons for collecting. If someone is a gun collector for "MUH SULF DUHFANSE" are pretty retarded, however, if you respect the weapon and are generally in the history, maintenance and practical uses of the weapon that's fine. Same goes for sword collectors, medieval weaponry has always been an interest of mine for historical reasons and I've purchased many swords in my life time, that being said I don't train in sword combat because that's retarded. The main reason I think people associate it with being an autists is the fact weaboo trash buy Japanese weapons they don't know how to use because they aseen an anime character use it in a cartoon.

Ok, just to get something clear, we do not collect swords because "look at me, I have a sword aren't I cool".

Personally I collect swords because I love the history behind "the sword" if you will, a history that guns lack in my opinion.

Historically I like them because of what they represent. Human history. They were the souls of samurai, and a key part of life for soldiers throughout history.

Soldiers who used them to defend their homeland, to defend freedom, etc.

It's a symbol of all these people and our long history.

This is why they have such a key role in fantasy and mythology, which is another reason I love them. They feel like remnants of another time, and they have that same feeling, that same symbolism when I have a sword from my favorite stories, like lord of the rings.

And yeah, I could collect stamps. or lord of the rings action figures, or some other crap. But to me, those simply lack the same "soul" if you will.

So no, it's not because it looks cool, it's because I love everything surrounding them.
A gun is just a hollow killing machine in my eyes, although that may change over the course of time.

Hmm... There is slightly a bit more to the autistic diagnosis to just collecting things. Like when I was a kid collected shells, got older collected music, now I am collecting makeup and pop figures. Good fun but the only time someone mentioned autism I was 17 and was like what no I have adhd. Which can be disputed that it's on the autism spectrum.

Nah man, it's fucking retarded.

>Swordman ship takes years to learn

Certainly, becoming a master swordsman takes dedication, time and skill.. No contest there.

Those individuals you talk about, requiring the training etc, they were to go into battle against other highly trained warriors, so of course there was much greater need for competence. These were warriors fighting warriors.

To say a man with a razor sharp blade isn't dangerous based on that is just fucking stupid.

When I was 10 I messed around with my uncles army sabre, I cut bottles in half and hacked shit up, nobody told me how to swing or hold a sword properly, it was just intuitive. That bottle could easily be a person, and if that person is also an untrained civilian, or an unarmed combatant, they're still gonna be in danger.

Also suggesting that being able to fire a gun and actually hit the target doesn't take any training is just as retarded.

Basically, and I could have probably said it in less words, you're spewing pure bombast to sound intelligent but it's nonsense, and I only hope one day when you're out in public you happen upon a nutjob with a blade and decide to be a have-a-go-hero because he "isn't dangerous".

Collecting guns is autistic if you do it because Wanted is your favorite movie and you try to bend bullets at the range.

Meanwhile, it's not autistic to collect swords if they are practical replicas of historical weapons and you know their history.

Holy shit, do you listen to yourselves talk? Humans have been collecting things time immemorial. It's not a form of autism, it's part of your survival instinct. A squirrel doesn't collect nuts because it's autistic, it's storing food. You aren't doing this because you're autistic, you're doing it because of your instinct.

Concept of ownership is very human, and normal. You want more of the things that you obtain, that's just a matter of course. When it becomes harmful is when your entire apartment is filled with fucking newspapers and you're creating a fire hazard. That's when you need to put the kibosh on shit.

Several reasons.
Because you do not give the other the chance to defend himself. It's like a knife in the back, or poison, all of these seem dishonorable to me.

You don't face your killer or your victim, there is something personal about a fist fight, or a sword fight, a gun is distant and impersonal.

Even a kid could shoot and adult, there is no skill, skill helps of course but even the best gunman can be randomly shot.

You might not see why these things matter, but they do, atleast to me.

I once called out someone threatening to stab me, I told him he was puny little bitch who was afraid to fight like a man. And that he was too big of a bitch to actually stab me.

Unsurprisingly they thought I was insane and left.

Anyway, I have respect for the idea of a fair fight, because you put yourself in harms way. The very concept of a gun is trying to kill someone from far away without opening yourself up to risk.

I don't respect anyone who uses a weapon on an unarmed opponent. And to me, this applies to almost all gun fights except for duels.

Why? Because you don't enjoy what he does? I'll tell you what makes a persons life sucks, and what makes it not. Enjoyment. That's all. If you don't enjoy your time, your life sucks. Doesn't matter what you're doing. If you are enjoying it, your life can't suck.. How can it? in what way can a persons life suck if they are enjoying it?

Not really, that's why they were invented yes, but to many of the men that used them, they became more than that. To them, there was value in the concept of an honorable fight.


Perfect example of this was in game of thrones, where Tywin lannister wondered why it was considered wrong to kill 10 people at a wedding instead of 1000 on the battlefield.

The answer to that question is simple, and I don't get how people don't see it.

The thing is, honor has never mattered. A mindset like yours is what led the British over the top at the Somme. War has always been about winning and surviving, not playing nice.

Put it this way. In 2016 it's some kid with an AK getting ripped in half by 25 mm from an LAV.

In 1916 he was ripped in half by a maxim.
In 1616 it was grapeshot.
In 1216 it was a fuck off big lance.
In 816 it was a bearded axe.
In 116 it was a gladius.

In every scenario some kid gets torn in fucking half, screaming, crying, puking from the smell of his own insides.

That's war. Youre a delusional, sheltered child.

That isn't cosplay. If he had put in even the slightest amount of effort to make a costume, then sure. Cool. He has a hobby that he enjoys. This is just some yard that thinks he looks cool with a ridiculous sword on his shoulder.

Why don't you people get that that is exactly what I am saying? Honor is dead, guns killed it, that's why I hate guns.

Believe it or not, I don't care, but it happened, so I am going to use it as an example when its relevant.

Yes. Swords were useless, took a lot of time effort and resources to make, and were used for duels occasionally.
Spears, polearms, axes, and maces were much much more common weapons that were handled as melee weapons during medieval times. Spears and polearms have always been the go to for a easy to use and easy to make weapon.
So yes.
Swords were pretty much useless trinkets. You would fucking get cut down by like 12 guys if you ever tried to rush at them with a sword.

Is it? I don't own swords. It might be you since you can't actually answer a question though.

Sucks that the US has so many problems they feel insecure in their own homes.

I didn't know though. Because if he wants to green text something he i'd assume he's though out what he said, Which he didn't. You should probably kill yourself for defending him. But swords from a sword collection are useless, face it.

Gun owners have a stigma attached, they're starting to be seen as nutjobs who either go out shooting up public places, or stockpile food and ammunition because "the government is evil". Shit how many times do you see on /b/ some dip mentioning how guns are good, or constitutionally allowed, for overthrowing a tyranical government? It's the same thing that happened with swords.. The vocal minority are the retarded ones and they get everybody tarnished with the same brush.

No any more gay in the slightest. I mean, have you seen some of the dildos they make now?

No it didn't and by replying "i don't care" you clearly care you beta faggot.

Where's the honor in any of that? That's my point. A fight is never about chivalry or fairness.

Swords are good in that they're easy to use. Other weapons like maces are a bit more awkward and require more skill. I wouldn't call them entirely useless considering they were universally used by man for centuries.

>Implying someone/organizion went around the globe asking a sizable enough percentage of homeless people to arrive at that kind of conclusion.

Nah bullshit m8. I used to volunteer at a homeless shelter and those cunts were killing themselves left right and center. From my experience, the majority of homeless people want out of their situation, or are too depressed/hopeless to attempt to fix it.

Also I know for a fact the kinda cunts that compile those studies for governments to support cutting aid are the kinda people that take "x is depressed and unmotivated to try and get off the street" and present it as "x is homeless by choice" to mislead dimwits like you who then read it as "homeless people are out there doing what they love and not giving a fuck". Just stop.

Man has also used women for centuries. Are you actually trying to tell me women aren't useless?

Large empire don't get overthrown though. They collapse. US won't collapse for a few years and if not then maybe a few decades.

When this concept gets mastered, we're all gonna go back to using swords. this is the future.

The japs kill themselves more. Your point? You don't know shit for a fact, You browse /b/. You don't know anything.
