    Because it's another step towards confiscation.

    Yes, individuals that are vocal against women online or have issues with finding a sexual partner. He had made numerous threats to women online.

    Many of them have similar profiles.

    Why do you find that funny?

    So your argument is that doing anything is only a slippery slope so it is best we do nothing until enough people are fed up and confiscation actually occurs?

    People just want the school shootings to stop and for there to be common sense regulation — very few want to confiscate weapons completely but that number grows after each of these.

    I've posted a dozen, or more times about what should be done to stop school shootings. Gun bans won't work, anyway.

    Considering criminals convicted of firearms crimes in the US have a 77% recidivism rate and China has the death penalty for firearm offenses your calculations are probably off by a bit! :)

    But, still a person, not a gun. Right?

    Why do you have to resort to strawman arguments. Where have I mentioned hiding firearms?

    Pick a better analogy. This one doesn’t work. It fails the logic test.

    I’m all for firearm safety. It’s a top priority for me.

    Any measure supported by a majority would be law. Any state that desires the regulations you crave can and does have them today. Why whine? Call your state Senator and Representative…

    I mean gun bans do work if fully implemented. Numerous countries have proven this.

    I am not a proponent of banning guns but it isn’t factual to say that they do not work.

    Correct, guns are inanimate objects.

    They simply make the task easier for an individual.

    The Columbine attack happened during the last gun ban.

    You up to running the numbers on the results of Mao’s 1966 firearm “culture”?

    And these have exploded since then

    upload_2022-5-29_22-59-19.jpeg

    What do the numbers have to hit before y’all will agree action needs to happen?

    Saying gun bans don’t work because their are a few shootings each year is nonsensical when we are currently at 200+ a year.

    Mass killings doubled after the Australian gun ban in 1997. Stop claiming it works because it's been proven that it doesn't.

    The 6th school shooting this year, just in Philadelphia. You hear about it? Nope.

    I never said they were perfect but statistically they are very effective. That you picked one country and one metric should highlight the bias here.

    Care to post your source showing that mass shootings have doubled in Australia? I cannot find it. Thanks in advance

    This has nothing to do with what I asked.

    There have been 27 school shootings this year alone with 83 deaths. How many need to occur before one of you say this isn’t acceptable? How many living breathing children will it take before they are given the same importance as a fetus to the “pro-life” crowd?

    Where do these numbers come from? I live in Australia and I haven't heard such a thing.

    And you can get 15 years jail for having a hand gun in Britain. It works - even the cops don't bother carrying guns now.

    Ya a country of 26 million compared to nation of 350 MILLION.. Ridiculous in it's own right! Now factor in all the criminals that have floated over the boarder over the last four decades and the gang element nesting in all our major cities and you have far more problem than you want to discuss..

    Every time one of these acts of crime happen the activist saddle their white horse and parade around preaching a fraction of the real data, blaming guns for every thing and never mention the criminal element and how they plan to correct that.. Personally, I find it underhanded parsing of major issues connected with firearms banning to be disgusting, dishonest and absolutely biased against responsible law abiding Americans..

    Try connecting all the dots for a change!!

    One "knife?"

    How about 8 attackers with swords/machetes. China.

    Mass killing doubled since the gun ban. There's no way to deny that.
