The US has much looser gun laws now, and Australia got harsher ones... yet gun violence declined in BOTH countries and you can't see any sudden drops when laws came into effect.

I just love how you resume a tragic shooting to "someone killed people". I also love how you use "facts or staments" about your opinion, and mine was just an opinion. I SPECIALLY love how you try to use a ironic and superior tone to belittle my opinion and it actually didn't work. People died bc your beloved orange's goverment treating gun control as a minor problem and passing it aside like it is nothing. It's the 273rd shooting this year, it's not a minor issue. I'm just asking you to stop being biased and think about this people as living humans and not just statistics that you can use to defend that excuse for a president you have. Also, you need some glasses. this is the state of grace, this is the worthwhile fight Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You got the "273" number from the flawed 'Mass Shooting Tracker', which was created by "GunsAreCool", an incredibly biased place. They've been widely criticized for their methodology, leading to headlines like "Press distorts with inflated 'mass shooting' statistics". http://www.politifact.com/california/article/2017/oct/04/mass-shooting-what-does-it-mean/ "I am the world's greatest person that does not want to let people into the country."—US President Donald J.

Well no sh*t if guns stop being sold ppl will still have them for many years still It would take several years as guns get old and dont work on younger generation didnt get a chance to ever buy one dont expect a big drop the decade of unless ur gonna knock on ppls houses and confiscate every gun u find Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The US was always higher than Australia. So clearly there's other factors involved here. "I am the world's greatest person that does not want to let people into the country."—US President Donald J.

U cant put price on life Also in most cases i dont think a gun will truly protect u in self defence a robber comes into ur house 99% of times they will run away if they realize ur at home... pull out ur gun and theres a much higher chance he will react to protect himself and cross shooting may occur unless someone has a personal vendetta against u... most assalters have no reason to physically harm u unless u give them a reason to Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
