There is no sound argument as to why you would allow guns if you compare american homicide rates to european. The US is one of the most uncivilized countries regarding firearm related deaths among all first world countries.
Homicide rates would skyrocket if we lost our guns. The only difference would be that the US government wouldn't report it because they'd be the ones doing it.

Christopher Watson
Give a rest, Achmed.
Americans aren't going to disarm themselves just because black and hispanic gang bangers like to kill each other for sport.
>"Looking only to official criminal records, data over the past thirty years consistently show that the mythology of murderers as ordinary citizens does not hold true. Studies have found that approximately 75% of murderers have adult criminal records, and that murderers average a prior adult criminal career of six years, including four major adult felony arrests. These studies also found that when the murder occurred "[a]bout 11% of murder arrestees [were] actually on pre-trial release"--that is, they were awaiting trial for another offense."
>"The fact that only 75% of murderers have adult crime records should not be misunderstood as implying that the remaining 25% of murderers are non-criminals. The reason over half of those 25% of murderers don't have adult records is that they are juveniles. Thus, by definition they cannot have an adult criminal record."
The Second Amendment has no place in modern society. When America got organized as a country, they wrote a fairly radical Constitution with a radical Bill of Rights, giving a radical amount of individual freedom to the radical American masses. There’s too much personal freedom. When personal freedom’s being abused, the State, the only entity deserving of power, has to move to limit it. The National Guard fulfills the militia mentioned in the Second amendment. Citizens no longer need to protect the states or themselves.

Luis Sullivan
Why is gun violence more important than any other kind of violence?
Be sure to compare ALL violent crimes per capita, regardless of the weapon used.
Then you can make the determination that most of Europe has more violent crime than then the US as a whole.
Also, immediately after Australia banned most firearms, there was a significant rise in violent crime.
When you think you might get shot, you tend to not rob someone.

Get raped? Are you saying handicapped people deserve rape?
By the time the cops show up, Jamal is already pulling his pants (not all the way) up. I'd rather just shoot him, thanks.

It's a lot less stupid than the one that gave women a right to vote and the one that created feral farm equipment.
Jeremiah Phillips

None of the statistics support banning guns. We've been loosening gun restrictions for decades now. The murder rate is half of what it used to be. Violent crime is nearing record lows. All while doubling the number of guns and making it easier than ever to carry them.
Of the 8,000 or so actual gun murders, 80% are gang related and overwhelmingly take place in places where democrats have banned guns.
Outside of the ghetto, America is safer than any place in Europe.
We're not banning guns. Get over it.
Juan Howard
You shifted from guns to handicapped people to defend your stupid point somehow. Stupid american as always
Aiden Ramirez
There is no correlation between firearm ownership and violent crime. OP posts "intentional homicide rate" and "firearm death rate" next to each other to create the illusion that the two are connected, but this is not the case. Any cursory examination of the data will illustrate this. There is no statistical argument for gun control whatsoever.

Jaxon Price
Silly Hans. The only reason we need as Americans is the Second Amendment. That's literally it. "but muh children" "muh mass shooting" "muh suicides" "muh gun murder" Are all literally irrelevant because owning firearms is guaranteed by the second amendment. There is no sound argument agaisnt guns in America.
Dominic Miller
I'm not talking about homocide.
I'm talking about total violent crime. The prevalence of guns reduces the total amounts of violent crime. The banning of guns increases the amounts of violent crime.
Example: Australia, UK.
There's a town in Georgia that mandated each homeowner had a firearm. They have one of the lowest rates of crime in america.
Landon King

They cant I could make guns in my back yard. Shit I could even make gunpowder and ammunition in a pinch. If guns were outlawed I would start immediate mass production just to supply people who were willing to resist.
Kevin Evans
>Bill of Rights, giving a radical amount of individual freedom The right to bear arms was pre-existing in English law. The second amendment merely reaffirms its standing.
It's perfectly possible to repeal the second amendment. But first show me any instance of the crime rate being brought down by the passing of a restriction of gun freedom.
I usually get Australia as an example. If that's true, just point out to me on the graph where the law changed everything.
Owen Robinson
Then why make this thread that is about nothing but your opinion?

Oh, so you just want to centralise guns in the hands of the obviously always benelovent government. ok kid.
Luis Ross
Well, that's the point.
Nobody uses a gun in the best scenario. Inherently, there's a danger to yourself in order to use a gun.
The weak, old, women, and generally anyone that can't physically defend themselves benefit the most from owning a gun.
I'm not going to let you strawman a bunch of rednecks and gangbangers as gum owners.
Mason Ward
there is no argument to be made, come and take them you eurotrash pile of shit, i dare you.
Andrew Flores
I cant fucking stand the American philosophy that a gun is a tool for defense. No it isn't. A shield is a tool for defense. A helmet is a tool for defense. A gun is designed specifically to deal fatal damage to a person. It's not a tool to incapacitate or disarm someone, it's made to kill. If you're worried about defending yourself carry a stun gun or a peppery spray. If you seriously think that everyone who commits a crime in which the victim might feel the need to defend themselves; petty theft, muggings, carjackings, should be executed on the spot then you're a disgusting human being. This is America's problem. Violence is so engrained into your culture that you can't even entertain the idea that a criminal is also a human being. Instead you opt to murder them. If you want to address crime, you fight it at its root. Systematic corruption, wealth inequality, racism. These things drive people to a life of crime. When you shoot a criminal dead you more than likely create another one.

There is no correlation between poverty and crime, friend. Your understanding of crime is faulty. I don't have the data on me, but look it up.
By the way: A shield and helmet will never protect you from a gun.
