The cause is not guns. That is all you need to know.
I get it, it does not fit in the narrative that your puppet masters have created.
So then what is the cause? In your expert opinion...

You ever wonder how the greatest mass murder committed by terrorists in this country was done without a gun?
Oh, never mind. I really cannot tell if that makes you happy that people were killed without guns, or if it frustrates you that brown people were able to commit mass murder without a firearm, and so it proves that one does not need a firearm to commit mass murder.
I am serious. I cannot tell.
32,000 traffic fatalities in 2013 in the United States. Why aren't we calling for cars to be outlawed? Why don't we have a 10 day waiting period for the purchase of a motor vehicle? Those things are deadly.
Wait, maybe it's the person behind the wheel that is to blame? No? Ok. Let's ban cars.

Zzzzz. Are people still using this washed up response?
While the low information left is focusing on the 2nd Amendment, American kids are being doped and subjected to unrelenting violence and carnage by the pop culture media. Doesn't it occur to the left that the son of a Hollywood producer who had every advantage in the greatest Country in the world decided to kill people? It surely ain't about guns. The Columbine kids were doped up on psychotropic mood enhancer drugs and their parents were upper middle class left leaning victims of the pop culture generation. What does that tell you about the video addicted violence orientated generation? Today's American kids see more realistic violent carnage than most WW2 Veterans saw in their four years of warfare. American kids are probably as qualified for a PTSD pension as Afghanistan war Veterans.
Oh bull shit.
In Los Angeles, a kid is playing a violent video game, reading a book with violence or seeing a violent movie. After the game is over, the book is finished or the movie ends, he has the option of going out to a pawn shop and buying a gun or simply perusing the arsenal his parents have at the house because of the 2nd Amendment. After pumping strangers and frenemies full of hot lead he expects what happened in the game, book, or magazine to happen. It doesn't.
In London, a kid is playing the same violent video game, reading the same book with violence and seeing the same violent movie. After the game is over, the book is finished or the movie ends, he has no option to go buy a gun or loot his parent's arsenal because they have sane gun laws. So there is no pumping strangers and frenemies full of lead.
Kids all over the world are exposed to the same cultural influences. The difference here is that we have the 2nd amendment so there is almost comical access to weaponry.
It just proves you can't fix stupid.
Violence is still rampant in the UK. Guns or no guns.

I didn't ask you what ISN'T the cause. I asked what IS the cause?
We both know you have no fucking clue what you're talking about thats why you keep repeating yourself like the parrot that you are. You should be
TheParrot32, TheOwl is just a bit off.
They could have just said "The Right of the People to bear arms shall not be infringed". It would have covered militias too. They didn't
How would not mentioning militias cover militias?
I quoted a noted expert in language usage that says the militia clause does not limit the rights of people to keep and bear arms.
If you have an absolute right to bear arms, what additional value does mentioning militias add?
Language expert?

No, but I will subject myself to a sobriety check
Why won't you submit to a background check?
I have had my checks done.
I have my fingerprints on file with the state even though I have never committed a crime
So I should be able to walk into any gun store and but any gun I want.
Even if you desire an UZI?

Parroting other's non sequiturs is not substantive, it's foolish.

So Alabama and Wyoming ought to have B-2 Bombers with nuclear weapons, and if you could afford one, you too?
The right? Absolutely. However, the government is not required to provide you with arms, it is just prohibited from preventing you from having them. So acquiring those could be a bit tricky.
I suppose that depends on how one defines "right". If you assume the Second gives you the right to own any weapon, I'm able to understand that opinion, though I believe it to be insane.
There is no way to control who should be able to own, possess or have in their custody and control a gun, or any weapon of war, unless people of good will and of uncommon sense see a problem and seek a soltuion. Only one side seems to have these attributes, and that is those of us who want to have a rational debate on the problem.

Only someone who doesn't want to see the similarity between the two arguments will not see it. Can a car kill someone if no one puts it in motion? Can a gun kill someone if no one pulls the trigger? What exactly is the common denominator? It's someone using the object in a manner that causes it to be deadly.
Anyway, lets get to the real question RDD, what is your suggestion that is going to stop all of this gun violence? Because from what I've seen there are just as many gun deaths in the states that have the tightest control over firearms with the most strict gun laws. Obviously, passing more laws is not the answer. So, what is?

I guess people rather post hyperbole...and this is why I don't care about this issue..And still, you refuse to look at the root cause of these tragedies. Hint: it's not guns.
Its guns....but it's also the media and society as well.
The idea that guns do not play a part in this is absurd. ...and well a lie. Guns create a fantasy for people..almost a romance because you go out in a blaze of glory...the media helps this along because they run the stories and give people the fame they crave. Society helps by helping the media along....
The real answer is more complicated than: it's guns or its not guns....

You are right .....we have had alot of traffic fatalities
What have we done about it?
Required seatbelt use, mandated air bags, made cars more crash survivable, made roads safer, stricter drunk driving laws, mandatory licensing and car registration, mandatory insurance
Why don't we do the same with guns?
