Your first point is basically what I said... Also what do you feel safe from now? Seriously.

 

He feels safe from someone attacking his family because they carry a firearm. Not sure where you got confused there, lol.

 

I have what I call my truck gun. It's a 5 shot .357. I also have a scar on my arm, from a knife wound after someone trying to rob me for my wallet. and if you want damn proof I'll send some. That wound could of easily been my neck, or chest, or my family members. I carry that gun with me wherever I go, because I can. As long as there are people who aren't afraid to kill for fun, money, or personal belongings, than I'm going to be prepared to make sure I'm nor my family is leaving this earth anytime so because of those morons

 

So your solution is to fight guns with more guns? Yep 10/10 solution. That statement literally makes no sense. Where is your proof for that?

 

My stance for guns? No guns at all, only expect for senior police or whatnot. No citizen is allowed a gun, etc. Well, that's how they do in China.

As for knifes and such, guns and knifes are both very dangerous. With a knife you can cut, stab, and even can kill someone. With a gun through, depending on which type, may kill you instantly. For example, snipers for robbery of a bank can just shoot and boom, you're dead.

Our world wasn't safe to begin with. It was always violent, and it always will be.

 

It's not fighting guns, it's simply defending yourself against those who wish to do you harm with one

 

But why not prevent the person with a gun getting there in the first place. Say there's a fire in a building about twice a week. A fire department can come put out the fire twice a week, but a citizen will perish in each fire. Instead of just getting more firetrucks to fight the fire, why not just prevent the fire to begin with. You can't solve a problem from the top. You have to work from the bottom up where the problem originates.

 

Restricting guns wouldn't really solve the issue. The prices on guns will just increase and cause a "market" for guns. This restriction on guns wouldn't really solve anything. Just think about how they illegalized marijuana and so forth. People still had ways to get. I believe putting a restriction on guns will just cause a covet for them.

 

Indeed, through if we never had created guns, we would've have been not like that.

 

I'm just taking my post from earlier because it's the perfect response to this. One world: Australia. Gun control worked very very well when it was implemented.


If you want a really interesting view on all of this, go search on YouTube "John Oliver investigates guns in Australia" 3 part series done by a comedian, and it actually does a really great job of explaining it. Austrailia had a mass shooting about 20 years ago, and over 30 people passed away, many of them children. Up until 1995 austrailia had an average of 1 mass shooting a year. Austraili hasn't had a mass shooting since. So what happened in 1995? After this mass shooting killing 34 people, massive gun control legislature was passed in under 6 months, and it banned the ownership of semiautomatic rifles, shotguns and other large fast firing guns. The act faced tremendous opposition at the time, but now it is often viewed as a life saving decision. This didn't completely ban guns(only large and powerful ones), but it enforced background checks, and it put them in the hands of the right people. I'm not completely against the ownership of guns, but 75% of the population in the US thinks that there needs to be more regulation of firearms. So why hasn't it happened yet? There are powerful people against it's implementation, and it's really just a question of how many civilians have to perish before it happens.

Don't believe me? Before you disagree with me, go do your research like I did. This is all fact.

 

Your numbers are backwards. 75% doesn't want stricter laws

 

GIMMEH ALL YO MONEY! Naaa *gets rifle*

 

Idgaf about that stat look at everything else. Gun control was implemented, and it worked very well. What other evidence do you want that it works.

 

We allowed conceal carry without a permit here In kansas, our crime rate average is down 20% already for this quarter compared to others.

 

But America isn't anything like Australia. You can't compare the two countries when the United States has more than 13 times the population of Australia. Nothing alike and you cant just compare the two like that until you actually experienced it.

 

I guess I didn't get my point across. Theres an extremely low chance that he's ever going to run into a situation like that.

 

We all wish that were true

 

What do you mean "we all wish that were true"? You're literally more likely to drown in your bathtub then get shot in a massacre or anything of that matter.

 

There are more accidents in running a marathon(in Boston) than there are in guns Kappa. I personally enjoy bow hunting more than I do rifle or shotgun hunting. Guns are only dangerous if the person they are issued to is irresponsable or is not mentally capable of thinking by themselves. CoD is one thing, real life is another. TL;DR : Guns are fine, just too many people with low thinking capabilities have them.

The fact that there are still crimes with guns. Hm. Weed, and other drugs, are illegal in a majority of places. That doesn't stop them from being grown, manufactured, sold, and used. (Inject marijuanas kids. ). By saying that guns cause violence is irrational. Guns don't "cause" violence, they increase the violence that was already there. Limit other, more dangerous, effects. Alcohol, Cigarettes, Etc. They are more dangerous than guns are.
