Gun Control Debate

[PR3SSUR3]

But there are more guns, a higher percentage of gun owners and more lax gun laws in Canada than the US...and they have a lower murder rate

Because many Americans are thick as fuck, which sadly means the power of a gun replaces the power of their own brains in many troublesome situations

Many, not all. Most people would know the places "many" refers to.

I think the Canada comparison is the final word on the subject - what is it that makes America so much more violent apart from their culture?

33 were people killed is the deadliest shooting in our country which is nothing compared to many shootings in the history of other nations around the world. We're still a young country but I don't think we're more violent than the next... we're just allowed express more. At least if this guy didn't die in the VA shootings he could have been tracked because he used a legally purchased gun. "The legal gun owner is not a problem for public safety," said Streitburger. "It's the illegally held gun that is." In Germany, less than 1 percent or gun crimes involve a legally owned gun. Yet Germany has had their share of shootings, look back to 2002 when in Erfurt, Germany 18 people were killed in a high school shooting.

I still think it's the LACK of culture in America that's the issue but this topic is about controlling guns... not people.

i think they should make it harder to get a gun but not make it impossible. truthfully no matter what you do people will find a way to get one and if some one wants to kill they will find away its human nature being unleshed

But you are - you are more violent in fact than the very next country that sits above your heads on the map, as proven by statistics.

Illegal guns come from legal sources, which means the ATF can trace ownership back to the last Federal Firearms Licence... but little thereafter.

Express more... say it with bullets!

:cool:

Do you pay attention to what is going on in Iraq and Afgan ? You want to call us violent? People over there take out their own people ranging from 30 - 100 a day.

And what about Hitler's rule in Germany or North Korea. Give me a break, we're not the "most violent" because we aren't Canadians.
