Thankfully no guns were used, otherwise these people would be deaderer.

Lol, if you think gun laws do anything to stop criminals from getting them, your probably stupid. I'd suggest a stupid test ASAP.


Where I'm from (CA) it is so easy to buy an illegal gun that the option becomes available to most people around high school. In fact, during my time there, I remember one particular kid hustling them daily. And this is a high school that had a school shooting in the past. Yet guns are still available on campus?

Forget about it. Real criminals have it even easier than that too.

As an addition, there is the possibility that you aren't stupid if you think that. But usually that also implies you lived an incredibly sheltered life. Please go experience the real world.

It really depends on the country. In Canada and America the cat is already out of the bag, but if you go to most European countries gun laws do work, and gun violence is significantly less common in those countries:

For instance (all numbers are per 100k citizens):
United Kingdom 0.25
France: 3.01
United States 10.30

The funny thing though is that Canada, with easy access to guns, has an even lower rate than France:

Canada 2.22 (per 100k citizens)

See: Bowling for Columbine.

Probably has more the do with Americas culture of violence and ~14% black population compared to Canada's culture and ~3 % black population, than gun laws.

Gun violence isnt the issue. Violence and crime is and making guns illegal for good citizens does nothing to make honest johns safer. It does make it safer for strong armed robbers and the like though..so thats nice.
