No it doesn't...lots of perfectly sane Americans use firearms on a frequent basis, including shooting perps.

There are 82 gun deaths in the U.S. on average...every day.

 

I want one of those "Space Guns" used for trap shooting. Nifty looking rig with a huge bolt.

Being that i have not ever owned a gun and have had no use for one...what is the fascination and feeling you need a gun.

Question still stands, who gets to decide what expert means and who gets to be one?

The language barrier alone here on Planet Babel will preclude any rational resolution.

I think we BOTH know that finding these 'experts' at both mental health and guns will not be an issue.

It's a conviction that many gun owners feel - take the notion they need guns to protect themselves from their government or to prevent it from being taken over by some enemy for example.

No more an issue than finding climate experts everyone can agree with...should be a snap.

Do you not agree that banning assault rifles and guns that have high capacity clips would be a good start ..you wouldn't prevent all deaths but you would severely reduce the dead count.

Yabut what if Islamists or Hillary take over the government?  You think the death count is high now? Give your head a shake.

The 'everybody must agree with' part is up for grabs. Whomever gets to dictate what experts are at the time. Could be the U of T's Psychology 101 class with the way things go.

I imagine if Islamists ever take over the (US?  I assume so given the Hillary reference) government there will be lots of guns just lying around.  Just move the body and pick it up.

As I've mentioned to you before, you've already surrendered if the need arises.

It's the prudent thing to do...beg for mercy.

You do know that you will never be able to arm yourself against a rouge government again.....your puny weapons just dont cut it like 1776

That was grabbed years ago and not even a vast vast majority is enough to convince.  It'll be whoever gives the politicians the most money.

Good heavens man!  You take enough off to do the trick, fold it and put it in your backpack, next to the bearspray and the trailmix.
