that has nothing to do with it

like protecting people's God given rights

instead of infringing on them

Funny. God given right to kill each other. Paranoid bunch.

God given right to self defense

a smart and prepared bunch

Canadians are the naive and unprepared bunch

who think law abiding citizens shouldn't have the option to defend themselves from criminals

because guns are bad m'kay

Canadians think the inanimate object is more of a problem than the criminals

full on insanity

45,000 gun deaths every year, 6 times as many as Canada which has most of its gun homicides committed with illegal weapons smuggled from the US. This Canadian will pass thanks.  Who are  you defending?

And how will you be safe if you're disarmed and the criminals are armed?

I thought about this. 

It would probably have to be a gradual transition.

Start with background check + removing ARs.

The US already has more people in jail than any other country on the planet. Still doubling down on the same insanity.

Maybe a good case for the death penalty.

You are also one of the only developed countries in the world with the death penalty. The only other country is Japan and it executes almost entirely for multiple murders. South Korea still has the death penalty but hasn't executed anyone in the last 25 years.

Still doubling down on the same insanity.

I thought this was already happening. Can they improve it?

I believe a country like the U.S. would not be able to handle a sudden shut off of gun culture. It needs to be a gradual weaning, which may take a few generations. Starting with removing automatic guns and introducing background checks.

Tell ya what. You go to your local courthouse and give all the gang bangers a big hug. I'm sure that's all they really need to play by the rules.

Automatics are already banned and I'm ok with extensive background checks. 

But American gun violence is happening every day and night in places like Chicago and LA. That's the real problem. 

Anyone whose serious about curtailing gun violence would clean up the cities. But the Tweenkies would get mad...

This whole debate is insane. The Tweenkies have warped yet another subject with bullshit. Law abiding citizens are not America's problem. People like George Floyd are. Career criminals with illegal guns.

Gawd what is with this week? Is it 'Stupid Week" or something?

75% of American first and second graders know where their parents keep a gun. 31% admit to handling one. Guns kill twice as many kids in the US than cancer yet you think having easily accessible loaded guns around the house somehow makes people safer.

It must be terrible living in fear.

Ya wanna stop gun violence...remove the guns from the criminals.

As previously stated...I'm good with background checks. But if you idiots really wanted to cut the gun violence down, you'd FUND the police and set them to war on these criminals and the DAs who keep coddling them.

But no...that would be harmful to the poor black communities who...

Are the ones suffering from your own lack of principals.

Per capita, the US has 30% more police than Canada and the largest prison population in the world, both total and per capita.

Blacks make up 40% of the prison population but are only 13.4% of the population.

Yes. All true. Would you like to explore WHY so many blacks are in jail? Or do you simply write that off a "systemic racism"?

Maybe you should ask yourself that question instead of just throwing more of them in jail.

Interesting video on gun myths. Please note what the jailbirds say.

That's not correct. AR-15 are legal. Americans are also able to get a machine gun, if they want to.

Background checks are not going through, despite an overwhelming majority supporting them. Why? Because the gun lobby is still one of the most powerful lobby groups in America.
