Why do criminals in other countries obey gun laws?

I wonder which country leads the world in mass shootings at schools?

 

The good old USA

 

Freedom is often messy. that upsets control freaks. But the USA is still very safe as long as you don't run with drug dealers

 

generally not. its one of those federal laws that are based on the commerce clause fiction

 

Nope.

 

Or go to school

 

True - schools, the hotbeds of leftist indoctrination, are a danger to everyone.

 

Yes....kids....stay out of school. LOL

 

True. Being a passenger is a motor vehicle is very dangerous. In the past decade, 171 people were killed in shootings at schools, including the shooters. That 171 deaths in 270,000,000 school-days, which represent the opportunity for a shooting to occur. Over that same period, 18,196 school age children were killed in motor vehicle accidents.

 

Its a good thing there is traffic control or it would be a lot worse

 

OP could just as well asked Why do criminals do anything?

Criminals do what they do because they think they can get away with it. Same goes for politicians.

 

Control? Traffic deaths were up 7% YOY in 2015 and 13% YOY in 2016.

 

Would traffic deaths be worse or better if we stopped all traffic control?

 

We'd save more lives mandating NASCAR gear for passengers than by any Constitutional, effective and enforceable gun control

 

And which country has done this? LOL

 

Many of the traffic controls in this country are based on traditional design, not optimum safety. An example, and not the only one I can show, stop signs and stop lights are not nearly as effective for safety as roundabouts used in many countries such as the U.K. And Ireland. Just blindly creating laws doesn't always yield intended results for traffic safety or criminal violence.

 

We have lots of roundabouts in the US....plenty in my city

 

Some communities have begun to employ them and IMO that is a good thing. It is funny, when in Ireland, when I see people get confused at a round about, you can usually see the car is a rental and I would wager, an American driver likely.

 

Just as we update our traffic laws we need to update our gun laws

 

We have enough laws... they ones we have aren't enforced.

 

Nope we don't

 

You haven't in all your posts Identified any legislation that would be more effective than enforcing current laws or addressing penalties for those that commit violent crime. If you have, please enlighten, or propose something unassailable.

 

I have many times and you have never had an effective argument to counter it.

Oh, that's a relief that the number of kids shot in schools is so insignificant. Parents must be relieved.

 

I don't argue with inanity... you haven't had one that has changed a single mind that I have seen.
