Law Gun Control: A Global Overview

[Chappi]

Americans and their guns.
If you want your guns so bad that you don't want any regulations, you should also be honest and admit that " I don't care if mine or any other kids get murdered in school, or how many for that matter.
Keeping guns is so important that many Americans would rather have dead kids then reasonable rules about guns.
Yeah you all seem like reasonable people, goddamn.

It’s terrible. The same people will turn around and whine and cry about how they’re “vilified” for, you know, not giving a flying fuck about anyone but themselves or taking any sort of reasonable action when innocent people get killed every day.
It’s sad, but I definitely don’t plan to retire here. Gun violence is out of control, and health care is difficult to afford even for fairly well off upper middle class people. I wouldn’t want to raise kids here either, and luckily I don’t.

You guys are such drama queens. There isn't a reasonable gun owner around who likes to hear about anyone being murdered let alone a child. Of course, we care if our own or other kids "get murdered in school". But the chances of that actually happening are really pretty low.

No, I'm not going to give up my guns to make either of you feel safer . . . making you feel safe isn't my responsibility. No, I'm not going to give up my guns because the worst of our society misuses them. If you want to address that then complain about how the judicial system handles it. No, I'm not going to give up my guns because some decide to use one to end their life.

How either of you can act like we're supposed to leave our safety up to others is pathetic.

Expecting us to cater to your desires and being lumped in with criminals because we own guns and refuse to bow to you gun control folks is equally pathetic.

If you want to deal with gun violence, maybe focus on the group most at risk . . . hint, it's not children.

It's funny to watch them pretend to care about gun violence and clutch imaginary pearls.

BREAKING NEWS: Conservative man only cares about himself and his immediate in-groups, doesn’t give a shit about anyone else.
More news at 11….



Boy, it didn’t take long for you to come along and prove my characterization of conservatives to be 100% correct, did it?

I’m the drama queen here? Because I don’t think the amount of guns in our country, the amount of gun violence in our country, people being unsafe at festivals, concerts, movie theaters, on the streets, or in schools is acceptable? That makes me dramatic? I’m dramatic because I think locking down elementary schools like Supermaxes and arming overworked, underpaid educators isn’t a viable solution?

The safety of a community is actually the responsibility of everyone in the community, and what’s pathetic is this self-centered idea you and other conservatives have in which you find it more acceptable for people to be shot and killed than for you to be mildly inconvenienced.

And btw, focusing on gun violence involves doing more than one thing and focusing on more than one group. There are lots of things that need to be done to try and curb this problem.

Fuck that, guns please.

You're always being emotional when it comes to guns. Just like when you freaked out over SCOTUS overturning Trump's bump stock ban.

Choke on your characterization. You cry about the inaction because you disagree with the proposed action. It's your way or the highway. You don't care about someone's rights being impacted if the right doesn't inconvenience you.

Holy crap . . . . yes, YOU are the drama queen here.

Nothing dramatic about this junk right?

I definitely don’t plan to retire here. Gun violence is out of control, and health care is difficult to afford even for fairly well off upper middle class people. I wouldn’t want to raise kids here either, and luckily I don’t.

Gun violence isn't even the leading cause of death let alone being "out of control". You can't afford healthcare now?

We can't make schools safer they might look like a prison . . . . we can't possibly make it harder to attack soft targets . . . those gun free zone signs at schools, festivals, concerts and other public places will protect us . . . yes . . . you're a drama queen.

And you're darn right I'm not going to be okay with further infringements or inconveniences to make you feel better. You guys whine about people being inconvenienced when voter ID is dared to be brouched . . . . so spare me.

Of course you want to dance around addressing the group responsible for the numbers . . .

Interesting discussion on the recent ruling in Kansas everyone is freaking out about.

Choke on your characterization. You cry about the inaction because you disagree with the proposed action. It's your way or the highway. You don't care about someone's rights being impacted if the right doesn't inconvenience you.

Choke on your thoughts and prayers. While you’re at it, choke on your inaction too.
If anyone is embodying the “my way or the highway” view, it’s you.
Your rights are not being impacted.
I support the right to own a gun, to defend yourself, family, and property, to hunt, and to shoot for sport.

—You do not need a massive gun collection to do that.
—You don’t need semi-automatic weapons to do that.
—You sure as fuck don’t need the types of things we talked about the other day when you were cheerleading against the NFA, like fully automatic weapons, short barreled rifles, suppressors, or Glock switches, to do that. The fact that you put your selfish wants and desires over other people’s lives and safety is frankly reprehensible.

Holy crap . . . . yes, YOU are the drama queen here.

Nothing dramatic about this junk right?

Correct, there’s is not. I find it interesting that you really couldn’t even muster up a response to my assertion that we all have *some responsibility to one another in a community. It’s a foreign concept to conservatives these days, it seems.

Gun violence isn't even the leading cause of death let alone being "out of control". You can't afford healthcare now?

We can't make schools safer they might look like a prison . . . . we can't possibly make it harder to attack soft targets . . . those gun free zone signs at schools, festivals, concerts and other public places will protect us . . . yes . . . you're a drama queen.

Of course you want to dance around addressing the group responsible for the numbers . . .

You need to take a deep breath and look objectively at what you’re saying here. “B-b-but it’s not even the leading cause of death!”
That’s your argument??
In 2020 and 2021, firearms contributed to the deaths of more children ages 1-17 years in the U.S. than any other type of injury or illness.
Among high-income countries with populations over 10 million, the US ranks first for rates of firearm homicides.
Voter ID is not an issue that’s wounding and killing Americans.

And I did not say that some types of school reinforcement couldn’t be done, I am saying it is not a viable solution in and of itself.
Red flag laws, universal background checks, prohibitions on certain types of firearms, safe storage laws, and other things are all perfectly constitutional regulations that don’t infringe shit.

Twice now, here

If you want to deal with gun violence, maybe focus on the group most at risk . . . hint, it's not children.

And here

Of course you want to dance around addressing the group responsible for the numbers . . .

You have hinted at some “mystery group” who’s really responsible, without naming them—and you’re accusing me of dancing around it? By all means, put down the top hat and cane, Fred Astaire, tell us exactly who you mean?
When I read those two posts out loud, every dog in my neighborhood went crazy.

If you’re referring to the group I think you are, I am more than happy to have that discussion. It’s going to center around drivers of crime like poverty, and the systemic inequalities that exist in income, employment, housing, education, health care, and the judicial system that cause it—but we both know you don’t want to admit those things exist either.

Why do you build such a ridiculous strawman? Sure the people you talk about surely exist, but they are pretty rare.

The vast majority of gun-rights supporters are in favor of common sense gun regulation. The issue is that much of the gun regulation flies in the face of common sense... there is also the issue of our constitution which EXPLICITLY protects the right for citizen to have guns for militia purposes. Many proposed "rules" proposed can't be passed without first addressing that.

Even if someone disagrees with the constitution and feels that militia style guns shouldn't be in the hands of civilians, they should understand that an amendment is needed in order to strip Americans of constitutional rights... we must follow that process, if we don't than WTF good are our rights in the first place?

What reasonable, constitutional rules do you propose that would prevent the dead kids you're talking about? I can think of a bunch, but I'm curious what you think?
