    China is feigning concern for the 32,000 gun deaths in US.

    US shooting shows urgency for gun control. On Sunday, a gunman in a hotel overlooking the Las Vegas Strip opened fire on the crowd at a country music festival, killing at least 59 and injuring at least another 527, making it the deadliest mass shooting incident in US history. Three experts shared their views on the incident with China Daily's Zhang Zhouxiang and Wang Han:

    This is rich considering there are 13 million abortions/year in China. Also, 1.6 million people/year die from air pollution. I'm sure China's bad health problems kill more people than guns in the US. (There are 32 thousand gun deaths/year in US; and 63% of these are from suicides and accidents. Illegal guns were most likely the cause of most of the killings.) China has the third highest TB rates in world. In China, 1.3 million people get active TB every year, and 150,000 die each year from the disease. China needs to worry about its own problems and stay out of America's business.

    How can you expect any sort of discussion if you can't provide a link?

    I’ve had my threads closed as plagiarism for forgetting a source. Let’s see if the same standard is applied here.

    Mods?

    This is a link that seems to fit.

    My opinion on this they don't get we have a Constitutional Right to gun ownership and regulations must generally balance public welfare and the fundamental right to own firearms on the part of gun owners. Plus they have a lot of nerve the main reasons invading the US is a bad idea is not just geography it would be the fact there are so many firearms available to or in the hands of citizens its a pretty big deterrent to a foreign power who would need to occupy and hold the nation. Its one of our important means of national security as a nation the choice of last resort.

    Still, that link should've been in the OP.

    Thus the OP should be edited by the Mods, or closed in violation of Rule 11.

    "What the superior man seeks is in himself; what the small man seeks is in others."

    When it comes to committing violence, the government hates competition!

    I hear the Democrats are colluding with the Chinese to steal the 2020 election. They both want to disarm, destroy, and fundamentally transform America into a global socialist police state run by oligarchs out of Europe.

    I hear Trump is a puppet of Putin.

    I also hear Trump has Alzheimer's and he is impotent because of the Finesteride he uses for his crazy balding head. It also causes enlarged breasts and mental confusion.

    Problem is that we just had a 2 year investigation and that whole Putin line was proven fake.

    The Democrats are still trying to win 2016 with 2020 coming fast. The more Democrats dwell on trump Russia fantasies the less damage they do to America. Keep it up, Democrats are doing putins work just like they do the kkk/nazis work for them and give them the credit.

    The more Repubs dwell on the left and fake news, the loonier they seem.

    When Clinton landslide, Mueller time Democrats say I sound loony, I know the opposite must be true.

    Why would I take people who are always wrong seriously.

    Democrats always accuse their opponents of being what they are, from Russian puppets to loonies...
