Fake news, false flag

Care to clarify? Are you satirizing people who instantly dismiss a tragedy as a false flag or is this what you actually believe?

i believe in banning all quick fire weapons, a small pistol should be sufficient for people to defend their homes and family from a criminal. People do not need a friggin assault rifle and a sniper rifle and grenades and a bazooka and shotguns



I gave up arguing about that stuff. I'm just glad I don't have to live in the US. I love the country and its people and I will happily pay a visit every now and then, but politics there are just fucked up in too many ways if you ask me.



Official member of VGC's Nintendo family, approved by the one and only RolStoppable. I feel honored.

Better back groung check. Also under Trump i think its best if i hang onto my gun. We have seen what leaders like Trump have done to an unarmed population throughout history.

As it stands, people like Tails are almost or just as likely to buy and own a gun as people like Heads. 

This is not true at all. For every single Tails, there are a hundred thousand Heads. More than 99.999% of gun owners don't use their guns to murder people. That is why detecting the Tails of the world is so hard

Many other countries make it look so easy.  West Korea could take a look at how they pulled it off and try to improve upon the measures they take.

^ so much this.

I actually talked to my dad about this.
He grew up, believeing in the american dream and the ideology of america.
He was politically active when he was young, and leaned to the right (back here).

Today he says the america of his younth, isnt the america of today.
Neither of us would want to live in the US.

Easy solution.... dont allow anyone other than cops or military to own them? seems to work everywhere else in the world.



i can tell you that here in Brazil, gun control didnt work, homicides are on 30/100.000 (In US is at 4/100.000). The criminals are the only ones with access to guns, armed to the teeth even with military equipment.

When you criminalize guns, only criminals get them, it's a saying over here.

In brazil its still legal to own a gun.
Thats why it failed.

If you can legally buy a gun, some idiot is going to give it or sell it to a criminal, or a criminal will buy one legally...... somehow they ll find there ways into the hands of criminals.
That is the problem.


"When you criminalize guns, only criminals get them, it's a saying over here."

And when you can legally buy a gun, guns will circulate and eventually land in the hands of a criminal.
Then it becomes a bloodbath..... civilians arnt ment to protect society, and take on crime.

Its best if no one has guns, and you leave the work to the cops and military.

 

Imo this is just proof, that it doesnt work, to allow a population to buy guns.
Regulation doesnt work for sh*t.

Ban all guns = violence drops, gun shootings ect.

Let the police do their jobs, and give them like 20-30 years to get all the guns in circulation destroyed and away from people.
Results will be seen then, in brazil like everywhere else in the world where you cant buy guns.
