They Said Biden Wouldn’t Come for Our Guns. The Plan Says Otherwise.

Well... I happen to know what it was in 2013 and it was around 8,000 murders that were committed using firearms. Assuming 330 million citizens that works out to 2.42 gun murders per 100,000 people.

Can you walk me through how registration will eliminate 800 of these deaths per year? Will the victim say, "wait, before you shoot me show me your gun registration?" And will the shooter say, "heck, I don't have one, I guess I can't kill you?"

They are hypothetical numbers, don't worry about how they would work, just assume they do and they eliminate 800 murders per year. Is that enough to warrant some sort of action? Remember, every murder affects the survivors and there are many more of them than there are victims.

But what if they only eliminate 1? Is that enough?

You refuse to answer my hypothetical but expect me to answer yours? Rude.

It's your case to make. Not mine. You want to change the status quo. The burden of proof is on you. So if registration only save 1 life per year, is that worth it to you considering all the costs that will go into it?

You refuse to answer my hypothetical...

If you can make a point, you don't need anyone to answer your questions.

There is no point, rainbows will fill the skies and unicorns will frolic to and fro, care bears will be everywhere, death and sorrow will be a thing of the past, if you intransigent assholes will just hand over your firearms.

Bottom line

So how do 400 million guns keep us safe?

We have more guns than any other nation and more gun deaths

Do the math

England has more stabbings and a lot less suicides by guns which make up the largest percentage of US gun deaths. But being you gun grabbers are bat shit crazy I can see why you are against the armed citizen

US has a murder rate five times that of UK

Shows gun control works
