Youngcoach123 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 @EnjoyLife run those gun numbers again without 5 cities in America and we will be lower than all those countries you listed and omitted. why don’t I hear you screaming about cleaning up inner cities? Some rancher in Texas or Idaho guns isn’t the problem with you stats. Stop trying to void our constitution while not solving the problem that you are lamenting.

Maybe if one of those scared pansies would have had a gun on them yesterday 6 innocent people wouldn't have been shot by a tranny that was mad that she had to attend the school in the 3rd and 4th grade. I'd rather see one of those scared pansies taking out a guy at a restaurant or anywhere else that was waving around a gun threating and robbing people. I suppose you think it's okay for criminals to have guns and commit random acts of violence in crime so you "think" that you're actually safe because a cop will respond 10 minutes after that criminal shoots you, your wife, or kids you may have.

They are not inherently more powerful or dangerous than my Ruger bolt action...but my rifle only holds 5 rounds and you have to manually cycle it between shots...and it takes time to reload. Even though civilian ARs are not capable of full auto they can still empty a 30 round magazine in seconds giving them a tremendous rate of fire...and swapping out magazines is super quick. The guy in Dayton had a 100 round drum and fired 49 rounds and shot over 20 people in less than a minute. I think that is why many people focus on ARs. Guarantee that in a target rich environment, a person with an 870 shotgun with double ought buck can do just as much damage as an “assault rifle”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnjoyLife Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 2 hours ago, Sportsfanatic1 said: You forgot to include this one. Wonder why? And remember, they have some of the restricts gun laws of any. Despite recent improvements, Mexico's homicide rate remains near historical highs, at 26.6 deaths per 100,000 people, resulting in over 34,000 victims. This equates to 94 homicides per day on average in 2021. I'm gonna guess you will not get a response to those FACTS! I did not include Mexico for the same reason I did not include any other third world countries. Mexico is becoming a lawless narco state thanks to Americans love of drugs and comparing that nation to supposedly advanced nations would be comparing apples and oranges.

On the first part...I do think the sheer abundance of guns in the US plays a part in our high rates of violence. Easy access = easy opportunity. On the second part...If I thought more gun laws would do the trick I would support them...but there are already 20k gun laws on the books...and that is why I have never advocated for more stringent gun control. I am a gun owner...just because I do not have a gun fetish does not mean I am anti-gun. To really change the dynamic in this country we have got to change the culture. Too many broken families...too much hopelessness...too many drugs...etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back when I hunted ducks I used an 870. No doubt up close it would do a lot of damage...but it only held I think 5 rounds (mine was plugged to only hold 2 in the mag and 1 in the chamber for waterfowl) and reloading was a much slower process than swapping mags on an AR.

So does the govt step in and make sure that every diagnosed mentally ill person can get their medicine even though they can't afford it ? Medicine for mental illness is one of the most expensive medicine their is. It is usually on the top tier on your pay charts for people who have insurance.
