    You are precisely the type of person who should never be allowed a gun.

    Hmmm, far right using a feudal society as an example to avoid in 21st century america.

    Not to mention that lack of weapons created that whole martial arts thing amongst the peasantry.

    Domestic terrorism is mostly from Alt-Right racists/ bigots per a recent government report.

    And the reason the hard right refuses to support even the most common sense gun regulations, and equates all gun control with "taking their guns away" is because their God-Kings, the NRA are owned by the gun manufacturers. The leaders of the NRA, all own major stock in various gun companies such as Colt, Smith & Wessen, Berretta, etc.....

    This is why the NRA has gone from an organization which supported common sense regulations, such as criminal and mental health background checks, to an organization which opposes all gun laws and denounces any bill which would have any effects on gun sales as tyranny.

    Only when biased data omit to declare left wing political violence as terrorism or when the motives are not known so they assign it to the right.

    And what is the connection between the NRA and Russia? Trumped Republicans are looking more suspicious by the day. Are they traitors or just plain dumb?

    This is one reason I quit being a loyal Democrat.

    I did not understand that by me supporting Democrats, I was part of the enemy against the citizens of this land.

    Due to Abe the Outlaw, he and his cause caused millions of Americans to need arms used in combat.

    As usual, anti-gunners solutions don't solve any problems. They are always looking in the wrong direction.

    Gun control makes most countries far safer than America [ie. Australia/ all of Europe, etc].

    Democrats house the largest population of bigots in this entire country.

    Those countries still have enough guns that if they were so disposed, they could have mass killings too. I once read a post from someone in Iceland who said most every house had at least a shotgun, but they had no thought to use a gun for self defense. The gun isn't the problem, it's the culture and as the Left tries to destroy our family structure and western culture you are going to have these murderous outbursts. The Left created these monsters and now deflect blame to the tools they use.

    That statement is known as a "glittering generality"

    Glittering generality - Wikipedia


    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glittering_generality

    A glittering generality (also called glowing generality) is an emotionally appealing phrase so closely associated with highly valued concepts and beliefs that it carries conviction without supporting information or reason. Such highly valued concepts attract general approval and acclaim.

    Amazingly well said. But they forget that Switzerland is also in Europe and has few killed due to arms of combat.

    We have high rates of gun deaths due to the Democrats managing the laws of this country. And since 1933 their lousy laws keep getting called good laws.

    Where you have republican leadership, you find citizens have rights restored.

    Provided they have the money it is easier for criminal minded teens to buy a gun in most American cities than it is to buy a pack of cigarettes.

    The left doesn't generally support gun control; liberals do.

    Calling liberals - who are conservative - hard leftists undercuts an already incredibly shaky (and I'm being kind) premise.

    You will note that was his example not mine. I was merely explaining to him why his example stank.

    Actually that was a JDL link which some how decided that incels are right wingers rather than confused and screwed up dudes with no real political leanings.

    Why do firearm-related restrictions not work in all countries? Why are there exceptions where firearm-related restrictions have done nothing to make anyone safer?

    The obvious question of "so what?" must be asked with regard to the above. What ultimate, meaningful difference does such make?

    About a hundred a year in a country with nearly as any guns as people.

    There is no evidence that gun control has made any country notably safer. The proper comparison is before and after the requisite law in that country was passed. In almost all cases you get a decrease in gun deaths but an uptick in almst all other crimes.
