    True about the Swiss, but let me also add that even though every military age man has a rifle at home, they do not have ammunition. Ammo is issued only on as-needed bases.

    No you said you support any political action that reduced the murder rate. That is clearly not true. You only support the ineffective methods that do not punish the people who do the lion's share of the murders. Please admit here and now that you do not support any political action that reduces murder.

    PRO-Tip: the reason we know that cracking down on thugs works at reducing the murder rate is the crime bill that Biden supported in the 90s. That had a massive effect on the murder rate for two decades. Liberals have now swept that away and the murder rate is skyrocketing across the country as progressive DAs unleash the predators on the sheep.

    This is not rocket science.

    But again, most people by far never need a gun while guns cause an inordinate amount of death and suffering. They are a net detriment to our society, and anyone who favors a continuation of the present situation is not pro-life.

    That local resource officer presense was nothing to do with a shooter being there. That officer was already at the school before the shooter crashed his car

    If you truly don't believe Mexico strictly enforces their gun laws, meet me at a legal southern border crossing of your choosing. I'll supply the gun. You just have to walk it across into Mexico and then come back with it. Do you think you'll be arrested by Mexican authorities? And would it change your answer if I followed a few yards behind you pointing and shouting "¡ese pendejo tiene una pistola!" the whole time?

    To sweeten the pot, I'll offer to give you $10,000 if you succeed, for your time and trouble in proving your point.

    In 2017, Canada had a little over 25,000 illegal immigrants cross the border. That's about 3 days worth here. Would you like to experience what it's like to have that many people invading your country from the murder hotspots of the world?

    You would have to be really demented to think that immigration enforcement would make a difference. How many mass shooters so far have been illegal immigrants or children of illegal immigrants? This would probably be a first if he was one or the other.

    The fundamental problem is that guns and ammo are so easily available to people. That's all it comes down to.

    And notice that even the police could not stop this one. He blasted his way past them and killed a room full of people regardless.

    Every one of these events shows how deeply flawed and inhuman the pro-gun arguments are.

    Perhaps you could actually look for a link. Took me 4 seconds to find

    "Parliament has approved a proposal to ban the long-standing Swiss tradition of keeping army ammunition at home. With the exception of a few thousand of the 120,000 soldiers in Switzerland's militia army who keep their cartridges at home, all army ammunition will have to be stored in central arsenals.27 Sept 2007"

    Sorry, but I did mention that I lacked the resources and such to move my family to Canada. That's several years away. In the meantime, why wouldn't I complain about the country I live in? Everyone else does?

    I could give a rats ass about antagonizing people any more, and there is no law that will throw me in jail for doing it.

    Unlimited freedom, WOOHOO!

    In case you’re just tuning in, you’re on page 36 of liberals politicizing a tragedy.

    I don't think those that are under 21, ought to own a firearm. Too many of the underage will want to have a gun so they can have fun.

    What about the press, that is simply another culture issue.

    You cannot force them to not report on the news that will generate them the most views.

    We should work on culture, but we cannot force it, and I don't think there are enough people living that are willing to try and convince culture changes.

    Skin color doesn't matter, we should be putting all murderers in prison.

    Try again.
