(As a general concept of how a society should run, not intended as a US-specific question.)

I sometimes see people on the internet saying that giving people easy access to guns is too risky and there should be stricter gun control, while simultaneously wanting to abolish the police? I’m just confused on what people really want?

You cant both abolish the police and then also disarm the citizens, gotta pick one. So which is it, internet? Self-policing with guns? Or reform the police?

(Also its funny how the far-right of the US is both pro-gun and pro-police, I’m confused by that as well)

    Not hard to get as in expensive, hard to get as in the amount of training and certifications you need in order to legally own a gun.

      Yes, and I have understood it in the same way.

      On the poor end:
      Would you sponsor all these trainings and certificates for everybody who can’t afford them?

      On the rich end:
      Don’t you think that as a rich person you could delegate most of the hassle to somebody you pay? (not saying to buy false certificates, but even that is thinkable)
