Also please substantiate your claim of how historical evidence backs this up with some study. Most studies have shown no strong correlation between homicide rates and gun ownership.


What does gun control and homicide rates have to do with each other? We're talking about for the mass shootings etc.

If someone wants to kill someone they will do with or without guns. Guns did not invent this, therefore controlling them will not get rid of it.

However as per Video above, the places that do introduce gun controls generally tend not to have further continued massacres. Dunblane was the last UK one, this was the point when gun controls were increased and handguns banned. Of course the gangs in the streets (this is not a US exclusive thing) still go around killing each other. Yes we get incidents involving guns, because at the end of the day they still exist. However GUN RELATED incidents decrease with GUN CONTROL. It's really not rocket science.

As I said, I'm not saying ban them, I'm just saying you're accepting gun massacres as the cost of the freedoms.
