Don’t let the right tell you gun control does not work because it does.

[Blues Man]

Lol. I thought that was the parents in Uvalde. And all the other schools. That keep happening.

But the tree of freedom must be watered with the blood of school children. No one can argue with that.

Like I said I have absolutely no responsibility for any of those deaths.

If you can't understand that then that's your problem.

 

[Votto]

Yep. Being a gun owner or a conservative is like being the new societal "ni@@er" as government and the media continually attack them every day like they did blacks hundreds of years ago.

 

[BlackSand]

Embrace your selfish freedoms. That's the proper American way.

.

Hell yeah, if you hadn't already sacrificed all yours, you might have a better understanding ... Ooops ...

[Big Bend Texas]

But then they're not law abiding, are they?

They are/will be right up until that line is crossed.

Push even a reasonable man too far and he'll fight back.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

Look. You guys think other people's school kids are a fair price to pay for your 'freedoms'. Fair enough.

If you had an honest argument to make you wouldn't have to lie.

No law you can envision much less pass will stop all school shootings, not even a mandatory death sentence.

No matter what laws can be passed we'll still have school massacres so what is the benefit to disarming the law abiding?

 

[Big Bend Texas]

The easy access you have to your legal firearms has everything to do with the school children who die to ensure you that freedom.

There you go again.

The worst school massacre in US history did not require the use of a gun.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

But the tree of freedom must be watered with the blood of school children.

Now you're just trolling.

 

[Billy_Bob]

Dems never talk about banning all guns. You just pretend we do because the nuance of gun control policy is too complicated I guess lol

There is no nuance you moron.. You want to be a slave, give up your guns.. Its that simple.

 

[Big Bend Texas]

You, and people like you, are why the US has the dubious distinction of leading the developed world..........and not by a little bit...........in gun violence.

The Science Is Clear: Gun Control Saves Lives

By enacting simple laws that make guns safer and harder to get, we can prevent killings like the ones in Uvalde and Buffalo

www.scientificamerican.com

No gun control law you can imagine much less pass will end massacres in or out of school.

What we do know conclusively is that anywhere from 500,000-3,500,000 guns are used to stop or prevent a crime from taking place saving literally countless lives.

If gun control worked Mexico would not be a combat zone every night when the sun goes down.

 

[mudwhistle]

You couldn't lie straight in bed.

You couldn't tell the truth if your life depended on it.

California is a shining example of success for curbing gun violence with gun control legislation. It doesn’t come from one specific policy - but a combination of several.

“For the last 20, maybe even 25 years — except for the two years of the pandemic, which have increased homicides and suicides across the country — our rates of firearm violence have trended downward,” said Wintemute, who directs the Violence Prevention Research Program at the University of California, Davis, Medical Center in Sacramento. “And this has been at a time when most of the rates in the rest of the country have gone up.”

California’s rate of firearm mortality is among the nation’s lowest, with 8.5 gun deaths per 100,000 people in 2020, compared with 13.7 per 100,000 nationally and 14.2 per 100,000 in Texas, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reported. And Californians are about 25% less likely to die in mass shootings, compared with residents of other states, according to a recent Public Policy Institute of California analysis.

….California has done a lot to prevent high-risk people from purchasing firearms. We’ve broadened the criteria for keeping guns out of the hands of people who pose a danger to themselves or others due to mental illness. If you’re convicted of a violent misdemeanor in California, you can’t have a gun for the next 10 years; that offense has to be a felony in most states….

….We require background checks, and not just from licensed retailers; in most states, purchases from private parties require no background checks or record keeping of any kind. We have a system, that we’re evaluating now, for getting guns back from “prohibited persons” — people who have been convicted of violent crimes or who are facing domestic violence restraining orders. And we enforce these policies, unlike a lot of other states.

California Has America's Toughest Gun Laws, and They Work

The grotesque toll of gun violence is again being debated in Congress. States are not holding their breath. Particularly California: In ways that have tended to be underreported, the state has significantly lowered gun deaths, Dr. Garen J. Wintemute, an emergency room doctor and longtime firearm...

How exactly do MAYORS have control over violence in their cities? Go ahead. I’ll wait.

Policy

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Every Communist (democrat) must grasp the truth, "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun." Our principle is that the (democrat) Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the (democrat) Party

Are you really THAT ignorant? Even hear of Mayor Rudy?

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Yes they would just like criminals still traffic in illegal drugs the criminal element which is responsible for 70% of all murders would still have guns

Criminals traffic in weapons too. The same dealer that sells drugs will sell any kind of gun there is.

Are you joking? Mayors control city policies and appoint city leaders like police chiefs. Just how fucking dumb are you?

What policy? What gun control policies?

 

[Billy000]

Are you joking? Mayors control city policies and appoint city leaders like police chiefs. Just how fucking dumb are you?

Lol and how do police chiefs ultimately control that? Certainly no gun control is passed by them. See I think you would find police chiefs ineffective in any other context but because you're trying to make a weak argument about mayors you pretend they are somehow pivotal in controlling gun crime. It’s so stupid lol

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

What policy? What gun control policies?

There will be no "gun control" policies.

Congress is too afraid of us to do a goddamn thing, and rightfully so.

Cry, bitch.
