WI: Their is a gun around every tree in the U.S.?

[Free-Stater 101]

Literally, ROB makes it were you can walk up to a tree from one side and circle around it to find a gun of a random make of any type on the opposite side and this works on any tree in the U.S. how does this change things?

Edit: Only U.S. citizens can do this.

So does gun control. Also, depending on the time period this happens, so does any sort of serious oppression.

A part of me finds it funny because the liberals would be split between abandoning enviormentalism to chop down every tree in the U.S. like "Horton Hears A Who" or be forced to concede the issue altogether because their is no way they can possibly monitor all the trees in the U.S.

I suspect at the least, they'd remove all trees from the cities and make it illegal to have a tree in a pot in your house.

Jungle warfare just became way more intense though. Also I suspect mining forests for quality steel would become a thing. I mean, guns aren't going to be worth anything anymore but each tree has a couple pounds of quality steel behind it... start sending people in to recycle those endless guns into cars and railways.

Jungle warfare

What jungle are you referring to Puerto Rico?

Anyway Gun laws are unenforceable now and any attempt to enforce them will be seen as laughable the U.S. is also pretty much impossible to invade now what with anybody who is a U.S. citizen having access to guns.

Gun safety in school becomes mandatory for kids nation wide.

There's a fair few in the US actually. Obviously none of them are in a state of war right now because the US isn't at war, but they do train a number of troops in them.

The US 25th Infantry Division maintains a jungle fighting school in Hawaii.

There's a fair few others, a big chunk of the Appalachians is basically one big jungle thicket. It's going to vary since the word "Jungle" has a lot of argument about what it means in the first place, some arguing that only tropics count and some saying it's only in India because it's their word. Obviously not how I meant it, I was going with the old definition of dense plant growth, where generally you need a machete to take a walk.
