Why do criminals in other countries obey gun laws?

Nor have you changed a single mind either. I already covered this in a thread....you and I are not here to change hearts and minds and if you think you are you are only fooling yourself.

 

I have changed minds, some that have argued far better than you as I have told you. Two of my close liberal previously anti-gun friends are now gun owners (trained by me).

 

Prove that you have changed anyone's mind on here. I'll wait. LOL

 

Where did I say I did?

 

Good. So lets not pretend you can

 

I said I have changed minds of friends...they weren't involved in debating on PF. If they were, reading your posts would have accelerated their becoming gun owners.

 

Good so we both admit that you have changed no ones mind on here.

 

Anyone engaging here already has an entrenched point of view. Seeing the arguments of gun control advocates reaffirms to me the inanity of that position.
But, you diverted... show your recommendations for effective gun legislation beyond the current unenforsed laws.

 

How many times do I need to do this with you?

 

You haven't shared your recommendations with me, and unlike you, I don't live on the site waiting for your every word.

 

Ok now I don't feel like it. Work a little more on your approach. LOL

 

Always the deflection along with the hypocrisy.

 

Ask anyone on here. I've done it at least a dozen times.

 

Ok then...I would still like to know your point system

 

Ask me nicely

 

What age we playing?

 

Maybe the time has come for me to put you on ignore.

 

Go for it

 

Do you have anything of actual substance to contribute? Or are you focusing exclusively on emotional rhetoric?

 

Nuh, that's it.

 

So long as the shortcomings are recognized and admitted to.

 

The number of children shot in schools approaches statistical zero.
You many now respond with a fallacious argumentum ad passiones.

 

That number is insignificant compared to the number of children murdered by parents in the home each year, and much, much less than the number of deaths caused by auto accidents, yet we have no hesitation cramming our bundles of joy into our cars every day.

 

If only guns were restricted the way we restrict cars.

 

Well, you can wish in one hand...

Then again, if guns were restricted like cars:

1. No background check to buy one.
2. No need to inform the government if I bought or sold one.
3. No limit of the power or capacity of the gun.
4. The owner could bring it on school grounds.
5. No limit on how many anyone could own.
6. A CCW license would be good in all 50 states.

For this, the owner would just have to pay a tax to use it on public grounds and have some minimum amount of insurance? Are you sure this is what you want?
