The op has one glaring option missing, the best option remove guns completely and get them out of americas culture. which other western cultures and showing americans the example. also get rid of this stupid misconception that its a god given right that all you americans have the right to a murder weapon. |
Who are you to say we don't just because you don't think we should? Do you live here?
You realize that the entire reason there is an America in the first place is because people fought to protect individual freedoms and liberty, which includes, among many other things, the right to keep and bear arms.
Guns are usually not a murder weapon, point of fact they are a violence deterrent.
The Second Amendment exists because our Founding Fathers rightfully knew that the absolute last form of defense against tyranny are armed citizen militias. Without citizens owning guns, there exists nothing to stop the government from quelling rebellions. The American Revolution was a rebellion!

ignored everything i said. Look at other western countires that dont have guns in them. you dont see shit like mass shootings happening. apart from the very rare nut cases that are unhuman. and the world was a completely different place back then. theres simply no comparison. lastly the sole purpose of a gun is to inflict severe damage on the target. end of story its only because youve been bought up believing this crap that your defending them. you need to look from outside the box.

There are plenty throughout history to current times, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_events_named_massacres
On that list is one in Norway that dressed up as a police officer and killed 69 people in 2011, I didn't read through every single one, but don't try to make an argument that it doesn't happen outside US in modern days.
