now they should try to tracethis your using emotion and not logic. You’re believing that guns will magically disappear because they are illegal. That more won’t come in because they are banned. Hell, I bet 3D printing a gun isn’t out of the question. You can’t stop evil with paper. So when are we proposing the ignition interlock legislation? People are killing themselves and each other every nite. Don’t you care about these people?
So if banning guns doesn't work, how come gun crime has been nearly eliminated in countries that banned guns?
To say people don't care is wrong. But to make everyone responsible for the actions of a few others is wrong. I'm sure you make the same argument when a Muslim blows something up and people call for banning them from entering the us. Even if tomorrow guns were outright banned, you would barely get a handful off the streets of Chicago, or any other high crime area. When you say people don't care, I see people not caring about that epidemic. Inner city gun crime. Chicago seems to top its record every year yet the anti gun crowd only pays attention when the shooter gives hope to regulating legal gun sales
If people cared as much as they said, they'd argue to do something about it instead of crying about people taking their deadly toys away. You're argument about banning people because of a religion is irrelevant to this argument. Maybe we should kick all the Christians out of the country since they commit the most crimes. Actually the UK had quite the blackmarket and it took a decade but the market eventually dried up as the people legally buying to illegal sell no longer had a supply.
No the U.K. Never had near the black market of guns we have. nor do they have anything close to the inner city culture we have. It's not irrelevant. Banning muslims from this country to some degree is actually a real argument and issue based to the perceived danger they pose . There are people who say to ban them all based on the actions of a few, and then there are those who say to not judge all of them based on the actions of a few. I feel you don't care about people biking on the sidewalk because you have not spouted off on banning altogether muslims or Home Depot trucks.
what about Switzerland? They have more guns per household on average than we do. Yet they have very low crime, and like one mass shooting to speak of... back in 2001. So if guns are the problem , why is it that across the pond in another coulture these objects don't seem to act on their own like they do here? Could it because we have a people and coulture problem more than anything else?
Because the purpose of Home Depot trucks isn't to kill versus the whole reason guns were made is to kill. Christians murder way more Americans than Muslims. Maybe you don't care about Americans if you don't think we should ban Christians?
Lol, christians were already here... the are not migrating here. And they are not killing here in the name of Christianity. Regardless of whether a truck or gun was made for killing , it can't do it's job without a person operating it. If we were to be wiped out from the face of the earth, not one more gun would fire and not one more truck would start.
I told the guy that pulled a gun on me that it was illegal, that didn't stop his bullet, it hurt Edit: This was in NYC and the kid was about 14 or 15 so illegal on all counts
Would anyone have a problem with laws that would require the person responsible for supplying the gun illegally to be charged with the same crime as the shooter, much the same as a getaway driver is charged the same as a bank robber who has shot someone?
As the left moves further and further towards socialism they push more and more for gun control and even banning guns all together. At the same time they aim to silence the speech of those they disagree with - often violently. Yea, let's give up our guns and let the Nazis run the show. What could go wrong? I'll keep my guns, thank you.
Nope. Go ahead and hit the seller hard if he did not follow the regulations and/or knowingly sold a gun to someone who isn’t allowed to have one. Also big jail sentences for people caught with illegal guns. Tougher enforcement of current regulations would probably do more than any new regulations would
Don't forget to ban U hauls , every other truck, pressure cookers, knives and every other vehicle out there ! These people will find a way regardless of what weapon they use ,,,ps the reason this SHOOTER fled is because he was chased by 2 fellas that had guns and they started shooting back at him or this sadly would have been even worse than it already is !
Most people have no issue with having a gun for home or self protection. But what types of guns are needed for home or self protection? The guns legally available for purchase go well beyond home protection or hunting, and they are being used in ways that threaten public safety. That's the issue. I think the types of weaponry, high capacity magazines, loop holes like private sales at gun shows, and tightening up things like sales to mental illness or domestic violence offenders are common sense areas that should at least be evaluated. and btw the electoral college is a joke that makes most of our votes irrelevant unless you live in a swing state.
just common sense laws, and restricting certain types of weapons and magazine capacities imo. eliminating guns entirely would be impossible in this country, nor is it necessary.
