News & Events Gun Control is NOT WORKING

[Herne Hill Hammer]

1.The graph was linked in an earlier post. Most states instituted weapons prohibition acts from around 96 - 00
2. He shot 7. 2 died.
3. You should probably read up on them.
4. So why hasn't gun control stopped massacres in other countries (of which I've given multiple examples)? And most of those massacres we multiple victim murder suicides which have continued except the method of murder has changed.

Doesn't matter, we're not other countries. it stopped them here.

Providing they have practical experiences to go along with their theoretical ideas. It's not uncommon for people to be highly intelligent yet have almost zero relevant life experiences.

We're not talking about intelligence, we're talking about academics. People who have proven a certain level of actual expertise in a particular field.

Ok nanny.

Jesus, if you can't scare someone off with a .22 (not kill them! We are talking about defence here, not killing people) then you must have something wrong with you.

That said, you'd still get in strife for using a .22 on a home invader - because pistols aren't meant to be used as self defence in this country. Use a cricket bat in your 'Death Wish' style fantasies.

Shhhh ... don't let facts get in the way of "muh feels".

Okay, so someone tries to rob a off-duty cop and she shoots him. Fair enough, but what is this an argument for or against? If it's for the amount of training a person needs before being allowed a gun, then I agree.

The video was originally (incorrectly) posted as being from the US as an argument for why everyone should have guns, or something. Not sure why it was posted in here.

I can only assume then that the person who posted that on here is very much pro-gun control.

OP probably thinks Cliven Bundy is a hero.

You jumped to conclusions without all (any) facts.

Next time wait for data before virtue signalling ... "look at me, I'm such a good persons because I don't like guns"

The conclusions that Brazil is a violent cesspit, or that I feel safer knowing that the average joe or joella isn't carrying a gun? Because I stand by both, regardless of the occupation of the woman in the video.

I am a good person for many reasons, disliking guns is just one piece of lettuce in the delicious salad of my personality.

The only people to fear carrying guns, who are a threat, are....

Govt, police, criminals, cartels, mk ultra victims, lunatics. The everyday person is not a threat to everyday persons.

Lunatics don't seem to have much trouble getting guns in countries with more lax gun laws

The police aren't a threat if they don't have to assume that every swingin' dick out there is packing heat
