Then certainly you'd love to live in China! They have a much higher crime rate than the U.S, but a lower homicide rate than half of Europe - with the people lacking freedoms, might I add. It's bad enough when the criminals are commiting crimes, but when the government does too, it's worse! In China they have no laws protecting children from teacher abuse, for example. Yet their children are relatively safe from death, I suppose. Is that a better society? Also, we have no idea what the effects could be. Yes, death by guns would decrease, but who's not to say that death by other means won't increase with a gun ban? |
Your pretty insightful on this subject it seems, more-so than me of course as I know nothing and have not studied. I'm just using my own sense and putting it forth and thats all you really need to do to understand that America could be so much better if government actually took care of their people as opposed to just giving their people a reason to stay.
Death by guns would decrease so obviously death by other means would increase slightly in each category. But does it not seem sensical to think that overall crime/homicide would go down after years past?
