Question A: what was the knife designed to do?And the men's tally frazzled take all that into account right up to the point they pull the trigger.The pragmatic would be to enforce the gun laws we already have with harsh sentencing and no parole not blaming all gun owners for the actions of fucking criminals.Of course people get killed in the U.K. No law is a panacea. No law PREVENTS all crime. Stop making the perfect the enemy of the pragmatic.
Commit any crime while in possession of a firearm even if that fire arm was never drawn automatic 25 years no parole
Commit any crime and draw a firearm during the commission of that crime even if the gun is not fired 35 years no parole
Commit any crime and fire a gun during the commission of that crime and no one gets injured or killed 50 years no parole
Commit a crime and injure or kill with a firearm during the commission of that crime LIFE no parole
That is gun control
What puts the "mass" in "mass shooting"? The weapon.
In China and Japan they have mass slashings with knives. Did they ban knives?
Question B: what is the semi-automatic firing system designed to do.
Quit looking for equivalence among kitchen implements and weapons designed to kill as many people as quickly as possible.
The knife is designed to cut, which is what it was used for.
The semi-automatic firing system is to reduce reloading time.
How many of those rifles kill people in a given year?
None.
Here we go. Guns don't kill people, people do.
Therefore we should allow people who want to kill people have the fastest, most deadly, weapons with reduced loading time.
Good thinking, Spot
