Re: Domestic terrorism
Attributing the difference in death count to gun laws makes no sense, the death count difference there in Paris has everything to do with population density.

Re: Domestic terrorism
Let me try to help with this.....
Drugs are now and have been illegal for about a millennia. NEVER been more prolific, more profitable or easier to get than today. Hows that war on drugs going? Guns will follow a similar trail if forced underground.... And please...stop beating that....tired ass party line drum BS.

People will alway choose to break laws if they can. So you make it harder for them to do so, not easier. Because this let the crazies have as many guns as they want idea has been around a long time too. And spoiler alert, it isn't working.

Re: Domestic terrorism
I realized I didn't include France's laws, but the same source puts them as restrictive, and the expanded sections are very detailed about just how they are. Here is the link for France:Guns in France — Firearms, gun law and gun control

It is just a fact you don't want to deal with that less gun ownership equals less gun violence.

I would argue that giving up an established right in the constitution, that was put there for a very specific reason, is a short sighted answer to the serious problem of how to reduce violence and will lead to a long term worse situation. |

Re: Domestic terrorism
Many of the EU union more more lax gun laws then those you mentioned. Many allow for semi automatic rifles that can be converted.
The fact is that gun laws work. Australia is a prime example. After the 1996 Port Arthur shooting, they did the sane thing and put in strict gun laws. There have been zero since that day. So don't sit there and tell me they don't work, because that is a lie.

Australia is a lousy example, because it is an island unto itself, and sparse population(23 million people over 2.97 million square miles compared to 318.9million people over 3.8 million square miles ) For the record there were gun homicides every year since 1996 in Australia. I don't know what you are saying is zero, but maybe you meant mass shootings? |
