300 million guns in this country is still not enough to keep us safe. We need moar nao!

we need more guns in the hands of law abiding citizens, as prooved time and time again by the lower crimerates in areas where citizens are armed in greater numbers thanks to laws that permit them to do so, and high crimes in area with low amounts of legal gun ownership thanks to laws that prohibit lawful gun owners.

There are more crimes in those 'low crime' areas (lol) than anywhere in Canada so there is your proof that guns need to be put in the hands of officers and not just your average Joe (Adam Lanza) who could at any point take a gun from their parents and go mass shoot some 1st graders at a public school.  

If the gun wasn't in the hands of Adam Lanza; if he didn't have access to the guns, then the shootings wouldn't have taken place. Only a moron would defend this situation.

A mass shooting resulting from a random person with a gun has just taken place...lets give every random guy a gun.

Only in America. Okay maybe afghanistan too.

The homicide rate in Canada is about 1.6. The homicide rate in New Hampshire (one of the most free gun states) is .8. The homicide rate of my county in Pennsylvania is .8. The homicide rate in Washington D.C during it's handgun ban was 35, after that was declared unconstitutional it dropped to 24. Just to put things in perspective. Adam Lanza could have easily driven a car into the building, set it on fire killing people as they fled, or bombed the school. Don't fool yourself, there are plenty of ways to kill people without guns. 

The homicide rate in the US as a whole is 4.2.

The homicide rate in Western is betwen 1 and 1.5 depending on the country. Every Western europe country has strong gun laws.

And it doesn't matter if a state has strict gun laws if the state next door doesn't. There isn't a control when you cross the state border...

Thing is for the last 20 years we tried the NRA way after every mass shooting, we kept selling guns and things didn't change, they only got worse as the Newton massacre demonstrates.. It's time to try something new...

 

As for the second amendment lets be serious. Do you ever think any militia would win a fight against unmaned drones and fighter jets if it came to that ?

 

Yeah lets keep selling guns to everyone and using death penalty against killers because clearly it has a good track record in reducing murders. NOT

The US has the highest homicide rate amongst modern countries and that is just a fact you can not deny...
