[Confounding]

It should be common knowledge that firearm deaths have been trending downward for decades.

 

[Remodeling Maidiac]

Doesn't matter. Owning a gun is a CONSTUTITIONAL RIGHT until the point that the far left take over the government and courts. At that point it wont matter as America as we know it will cease to exist

"Turn left and fire" will be the reaction.

You do have to realize that guns, any guns (even cap guns) scare the bezeejus out of the left. They will say anything whether true or not in the hopes that everyone will become so afraid that they will allow them to get rid of them.

They believe that everyone including crimminals will magically give up guns and stop selling them if only the law says they need to. Of course they also believe in unicorns and rainbows.

When JoeB131 says anything, it's a pretty safe bet that whatever he said is bullsh••. It's rare for him to say anything that is otherwise.

And?

Whether the numbers are going up or down doesn’t mitigate the fact that gun deaths is a problem that needs to be addressed – a problem most on the right couldn’t care less about.

Typical conserva-think: the numbers are going down so the problem can be ignored.

It wouldn't matter if the numbers were going up. You have but one option to repeal the 2nd Amendment, and even if successful, it would not hold.

Deal with the criminal element, or get a hobby.

Oh, stop this scare nonsense. Are you saying I am afraid of Guns because I support common sense gun regulations? Considering I spent over 20 years around them as a occupation. Am I scared of Weapons? Not hardly. Am I scared of using them? I was around some real nightmare weapons and anyone not scared to use them in a civilian venue is either lying or completely insane. And that pretty well sums up you.

There are proposals to ban them entirely in Canada. Of course, criminals and police will still have them. Those law abiding citizens who want to be able to protect their citizens (not a Right in Canada) will not be allowed to do so.

I've been open about never owning or touching a gun, I still don't get why someone who is responsible to own one and defend their home should be disallowed. I say if you are going to ban all guns, take them from police too. You will see how fast the former Chief of Toronto Police Bill Blair changes his mind.

Canada. Not a nation of civil liberties.

Of course, the dishonest right ignores the fact that the problem of gun deaths and violence can be addressed having nothing whatsoever to do with the regulation of firearms.

Conservatives instead resort to demagoguery and lies – such as the lie that those who seek a solution to the problem advocate for more ‘gun control.’

Did you bother to watch the democratic debates? They all advocate banning firearms OPENLY. In direct violation of the Supreme Court ruling that all firearms in general use are protected by the 2nd Amendment.

Well history shows us Democrats baned unconstitutionally guns in Chicago, what you think we're all like liberals in the book 1984?

Not quite true.....they love guns in the hands of their hired goons....the ones they hire to murder the enemies of the state and to fill mass graves.....those guns they love...

Wrong, we want actual solutions.....what you and the other gun grabbers want is to get rid of guns......two different issues. If we focus on actual criminals, and keep them in prison, the crime rate goes down. When democrat judges, prosecutors and politicians let repeat, violent gun offenders out of prison, over and over again for gun crimes......they eventually commit murder with those guns...and the gun crime rate goes up.

it is you, not us....who are causing gun crimes.
