Guns have been with us, but most people owned one gun for protection if that, during the Wild West period and Revolutionary period, and maybe one for hunting.I'll take my chances with the massacres and will carry more often should I get concerned. I prefer that approach than expecting government to solve my immediate problem, should that occasion occur.The shooting in Oregon reinforces one thing - the US leads the world in mass shootings.

Separately, U.S. federal authorities have reported an increase in mass shooting in recent years.
The article cites stricter gun control laws in the UK, Australia and Canada after mass shootings, which were then followed by declines in massacres.

U.S. Leads World in Mass Shootings
What these liberals can't understand (since it involves something more than what can be seen and touched) is that guns have always been with us. In fact we wouldn't be a country without them. It was much easier to get guns not long ago. What has changed it the progressives destruction of morality. If someone is hurting, society did it to you and you don't deserve it.
The liberal's solution is to take away my guns. My solution is to defeat liberalism wherever it rears its' ugly head.
Might as well talk about the high tariff on lump starch.
Has more value

There are nine families in Oregon who would disagree.
32,000 gun deaths a year and you don't see a problem.
2 death from Ebola and you are hermetically sealing your house.
Right Wing Crazy is so fun to watch.
Baaaawwwhaaaaaaaa
While indeed a tragedy, I'm more concerned about all the families waking up today who lost kids in car accidents, pools and the like. Death is indeed a sad event regardless of cause
And of the 32K, just how many are gang bangers for which I could give a cluck about?

Yes, I know you don't care about dark skinned people We got that.
pools and cars aren't designed to kill people, and every year, the people who make them try to make them safer.
gun manufacturers are making a product designed to kill people, they push to get deadlier versions out on the street.
That's kind of the difference.
The majority of our mass shootings are caused by gangs in inner cities. Remove black culture from the equation and our stats would be great.
There's nothing quite like a liberal lecturing people on guns. You don't know what you're talking about. People have always had guns for personal protection. Hunting and sport too. I don't even know how many I have, a dozen, maybe 14, I'd have to think about it. None of them have ever committed murder and none ever will, they are tools, not toys.Guns have been with us, but most people owned one gun for protection if that, during the Wild West period and Revolutionary period, and maybe one for hunting.I'll take my chances with the massacres and will carry more often should I get concerned.

all true. and the wingers think we should have more guns.
maybe we should let them all stand in a circle and just fire at each other and leave the rest of us alone.

You don't know history, guns, self defense or the Constitution. But you are full of opinion.
The FBI Crime in the United States reportfound 8,124 murders committed with firearms in 2014, down from 8,454 in 2013. That represents a 3.9 percent drop year over year and the lowest rate of any year included in the report.
320m population = 0.000025% gun homicide rate.
I think your math is a little confused....
but let's compare that to other countries. Here are some figures from 2012.
Gun homicides and gun ownership listed by country
US- 9146
England and Wales - 41
France - 35
Germany - 158
Japan - 11
Italy - 417
Canada = 173
Australia - 30

You don't know history, guns, self defense or the Constitution. But you are full of opinion.
When you deliberately create the special category of "gun-death" so that you can both include deaths that were not caused by guns; and exclude deaths caused by people, but without using guns, you tacitly admit that you're just fine with all the violence in the world... provided no gun was involved.Denial of what?

How about instead, we ALL recognize this fact and start pointing the finger in that direction. I see people bending over backwards to excuse criminal behavior in that community, and that system isnt working well at all. Shame can be a powerful motivator, but people are too PC these days to use it.The majority of our mass shootings are caused by gangs in inner cities. Remove black culture from the equation and our stats would be great.
Let's pretend this makes everything better.
