    America has had 562 mass shootings this year…

    www.gunviolencearchive.org

    XEAL,

    The United States of America is the best/easiest place in the world to own guns. It’s the only place you can get a gun at a convenience store. In fact, in most states, a background check isn’t required unless you’re buying from a federally licensed firearm dealer.

    The above is a copypaste, but it gets the point across perfectly. It’s vey easy to get a gun in the USA, unlike in many other countries.

    We had two mass shootings in the UK and banned guns, no mass shootings since. Same in NZ and Australia.

    jabeez,

    Says the fuckwit who just spewed this:

    Mass shootings happen everywhere. Most mass shootings happen with illegal firearms, and finally, tons of saves happen because good people own firearms.

    I never met anyone carrying a gun who wasn’t a cop or a licensed hunter over here in europe and it’s great.

    The horrorfreakshow in your head must be a huge burden

    jabeez,

    Cool story, crypto-bro. Lemme guess, you fancy yourself a real "alpha-male" too, right?

    I do hope you face exactly what they faced, but without guns. Maybe when your wife or sister gets raped in front of you, you’ll learn why sticking a gun up your butt is a good idea.

    Mm k there psycho, I hope violence befalls you and yours as well.

    If you’re going to compare gun related homicides, the US has more than 20x as many as the UK (in 2017 and 2015 respectively)

    I’m not sure what you mean, but if you’re trying to say that if we include all homicides that the US would somehow have less murders overall…

    worldpopulationreview.com/…/murder-rate-by-countr…

    The US has more than 4x as many homicides overall with almost 90% of those being gun related. US could save a lot of people if they weren’t so intent on their little murder toys.

    I see you don’t know how to read sources. That explains a lot, hehe! I guess it explains why you haven’t posted any of your own. Clearly we are done here.

    By all means, show me the FBI stats that state that 80% of all murders in the US happen without guns!

    Misinformation is claiming some BS without any proof. Which is what you’re doing, mister man!

    HerbalGamer,

    I may or may not know where to get illegal firearms, but would’ve done something very drastic ages ago already if I could simply go get a gun within 3 days legally.

    No because I can’t get a gun in a grocery store within 3 days.

    Only because the friends that would get me to an illegal one know my mental health well enough to not give it to me. No grocery store background check would find any of that.

    Kecessa,

    www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/homicide.htm

    21k out of 26k isn’t a majority?

    And again, homicide rates aren’t as high where guns aren’t as prevalent, proving your second point wrong.

    TransplantedSconie,

    He has to. I made sure to include a source he probably agrees with: Fox News

    Kecessa,

    And they deleted their comments

    jaspersgroove,

    If Americans weren’t buying them, they wouldn’t be coming here.

    The same concept applies for illegal immigrants, too. If republicans weren’t hiring them, they wouldn’t be crossing the border.

    What’s funny is that when you talk about illegal firearms in other countries, they must likely came from the USA (or in Canada’s case, they definitely came from there).

    TransplantedSconie,

    Well, whoda thunk that shit, eh?

    Who could have guessed a schizophrenic with unfettered access to high-powered firearms and a massive dose of right-wing idiocy would cause such things as a mass shooting and a night of terror?

    Chetzemoka,

    schizophrenic access to high-powered firearms massive dose of right-wing idiocy

    Two of those things dramatically increase the chance of violence, and schizophrenia ain’t one of them. Let’s not perpetuate myths that mentally ill people are inherently prone to violence because they’re not.

    It is possible to block users when they forget that memes should be fun.

    Nacktmull, in Paradox how could you

    Maybe don’t jump the hype train every time and instead choose to play proven and established games from developers who are known to deliver quality, which exist in abundance?

    PraiseTheSoup,

    Paradox is known to deliver quality.

    Nacktmull,

    I see, then my criticism excludes Paradox and is obviously misplaced in this particular discussion, my apologies.
