Texas Open-Carry, Boys and their Deadly Toys.

No....you made the point...smugly, that guns are why our suicide rate is high and if we got rid of guns our suicide rate would go down...you argument.......

This did not prove true in Australia, which also banned guns.......

Trends in hanging and firearm suicide rates in Australia substitution of method - PubMed - NCBI

When the firearm suicide rate for Australian males declined the hanging rate increased simultaneously, with no statistical difference in the rate of change of the two methods.
When you can show us the data, I'll look at it.

In the meantime: Gun ownership causes higher suicide rates study shows.


I showed you actual suicide data from around the world....countries with no guns, and countries with guns and no suicide culture, and countries that banned their guns and the suicide rate went up, or stayed the same...

You are wrong....and now have to shift your argument.....

Guns are not the problem...mental health is the problem...something you lefties suffer from.....
I have never spoken of suicide in general, or of suicide anywhere but here, or of suicide by any method other than firearms. All the rest you've brought up, which is not part of this conversion, helps you not at all.


Yes...you are wrong about guns and suicide as shown by statistics from around the world and now you are more pissy because you are wrong.....
No, I'm not wrong because you are presenting oranges to my apples, which you can't argue against so you are chasing your tail on suicides by self immolation no less.


You are wrong and the stats show you are wrong......so try to change the argument....
 
The will of the people is for much stricter gun control, and we've been blocked from having it for decades.

Actually, you are wrong, again....latest surveys show people support 2nd Amendment rights......
Surveys also show they support background checks and limits on large capacity magazines


Surveys also show they support background checks and limits on large capacity magazines

Nice try but you are wrong....they support those things when you ask people who don't know what those mean....and that they don't do anything to stop crime with guns....ask them real questions on those stupid laws and let's see what they answer.....

Or...you could ask Baltimore if those things work...they have universal background checks, even at gun shows, no gun show loophole, and 10 round magazine limits....are they workig there?
Case in point, the people don't get what they want, when it comes to gun control.


Yes they do....people want to be able to defend themselves.......not everyone can afford private security like the leaders of the anti gun movement.....
Guns aren't for defense, they're for killing things, very often people.
 
Oh...the gun grabbers aren't organized...since when....they have bloomberg and all the other anti gunners in hollywood, and the press working for them, they have far more methods of spreading their anti gun message than the pro 2nd Amendment people have and they are still losing.....
Yes, but they do not have the NRA, the gun manufactures, and the American wild west mentality and ethos. Add in a country that just loves to go to war and Sam Houston we have a problem eh?


No...they have hollywood, the have 80-90% of journalists, they have dozens of anti gun groups both directly anti gun like Moms demand action and Everytown and then all the other liberal groups who give money to ban guns, the Trial Lawyers, the AMA, and dozens of other groups......and they have hollywood making movies and television shows with anti gun messages......not to forget all the government agencies that are anti gun, the CDC, the ATF, and all the other tax payer funded agencies....

The NRA doesn't even come close to the saturation level the anti gunners have....
The NRA owns Congress. Little else matters.


No. The American people have seen the need for guns despite the money and propaganda saturation against guns and the NRA...and you hate that....all you gun grabbers hate that fact....
I hate the damage done in America because of the American love for deadly toys. Eerything follows from that.

So I take it you supported "Stop and frisk" policing and were upset when that was done away with in NYC by Mayor DeBlasio?

My argument has never changed. You are simply presenting anything you can get your hands on.

No...they have hollywood, the have 80-90% of journalists, they have dozens of anti gun groups both directly anti gun like Moms demand action and Everytown and then all the other liberal groups who give money to ban guns, the Trial Lawyers, the AMA, and dozens of other groups......and they have hollywood making movies and television shows with anti gun messages......not to forget all the government agencies that are anti gun, the CDC, the ATF, and all the other tax payer funded agencies....

So I take it you supported "Stop and frisk" policing and were upset when that was done away with in NYC by Mayor DeBlasio?
Stop and Frisk? Sure, as long as that's for everyone. You good with that, or just when it's those young *******?
 
And did you want to take a crack at explaining why some of the toughest gun control laws in the nation that are in place in Illinois haven't done a thing to lessen gun deaths in Chicago?

I suppose we could have our police waste their time frisking 90 year old retirees on walkers, Paint...just to satisfy your need for political correctness.
 
And did you want to take a crack at explaining why some of the toughest gun control laws in the nation that are in place in Illinois haven't done a thing to lessen gun deaths in Chicago?
Have they taken all the guns away? Is everyone busy off at work or college? Strict gun control works, we just don't have it here, anywhere.

Good. Equality eh, try it sometime.

Gun laws prevent murders around the world. Only gun loving America does not know better

No...they aren't asked questions that are truthful and most people are not informed on the issue...that isn't stupid that is simply being uninformed.....they don't know that background checks don't stop crime or mass shootings and that magazine limits also do nothing to stop crime or mass shootings...ask the people in Chicago and Baltimore and Washington D.C.
 
And did you want to take a crack at explaining why some of the toughest gun control laws in the nation that are in place in Illinois haven't done a thing to lessen gun deaths in Chicago?
Have they taken all the guns away? Is everyone busy off at work or college? Strict gun control works, we just don't have it here, anywhere.

Since Illinois already HAS strict gun control laws...and dozens of gun deaths took place there this past week then OBVIOUSLY it isn't working!

As for "equality"? What's sad is that the people that gain the most from stop and frisk policing are the thugs themselves. When they can't risk walking around carrying a weapon because they know the police are apt to find it and arrest them...they're MUCH less likely to shoot each other! Duh?
