Another mass shooting. At least 4 dead. When will the U. S. start eliminating firearms?

[MrShaun]

Any surprise? At least 4 more dead - - this time in Georgia. No one stopped the shooter with the elusive concealed firearm, so there goes that theory.

Sincerely, allowing firearms the way we do in the U. S. has to change.

Eliminating firearms is never gonna happen. Forget the second amendment in the US. Statistics indicate that there is more than one firearm in the US for every American person. It's physically impossible to eliminate them. Sure, a ban on new firearms might be possible (the 2nd amendment makes that highly unlikely) but there would still be many firearms, and someone who wants to shoot people will be able to do that.

Note that other countries also have mass killings, not just the US, and some of those countries don't allow firearms. Firearms is not the only part of the problem.

People have been killing each other for millennia, and those who want to kill someone will find a way. If there were no firearms, maybe explosives, or fire, or knives, or bare hands.

We are never going to eliminate mass killings. That's the unfortunate reality.

The best we can do is improve mental health awareness and treatment, to try to catch someone before they go off the deep end.

Americans must never give up their firearms, pampered boomers and zoomers who never experienced any confrontation would never understand the need to defend yourself by any means, Americans of today know nothing of what it means to advance politics.

Effective April 12, 2022, Georgia now generally permits any “lawful weapons carrier” to carry handguns openly or concealed in most public spaces without any background check or permit required. This doesn't mean everyone is packing though. They would also have to be in the right place at the right time. But let me ask you this. If the bunch of coward cops at Uvalde were afraid to take on some coocoo with a gun, why should a private individual? They would have no idea how many shooters there were or what kind of weapons they were up against. Still, if someone had a gun and could get the drop on the shooter, then the outcome would have been different.

[MrShaun]

One of the best arguments to not allow the free ownership of firearms.

[Nikki1989]

The gun nuts will make excuses, like they always do, and nothing will be done.

[MrShaun]

Unfortunately, I think you are right.

[JoeMichael67]

Run for politics and do something then.

When the shooter does not fit the narrative of the liberals you won;t hear a thing about it again. It will turn out this guy was a nutcase and everyone knew it. His whole family was aware of his mental illness and nobody wanted to lift a finger to intervene. Then Biden will start screaming about gun laws. Enforce the gun laws we already have. The government wants to disarm citizens.

[Lliam]

When they start eliminating cars because of vehicle fatalities, which are still almost double gun homicides.
My point is, you can never eliminate guns and it would be stupid to do so.

[Static_In_The_Attic]

According To The Annual United States Road Crash Statistics (ASIRT) 46,000 people die in vehicle crashes each year. How come we don’t eliminate vehicles?

[CrimsonAngel09]

Eliminating firearms completely is like trying to eliminate all the sodas in the U. S..

It's never gonna happen.

[rigmarole]

It will never change. If you don't like the rights Americans have, then you should move to a different nation.

[strateguy632]

you say noone stopped the shooter but if easier to get guns, people can stop the shooter , instead of waiting for cops

[ShadezMcgee]

Same shit different day with you Shaun. You are a broken record with these questions.

[MrShaun]

Wouldn't it be nice if they never happened instead of them actually increasing?

[LiamJHayden]

Without even going into how criminals will never follow your gun restrictions, what some whack job does has zero to do with me or any other safe fire arm owner, just like what some drunk driver does has nothing to do with safe drivers.

[AaronKrieger]

It's not going to stop due to the direction society is heading and guns won't be taken anyway.

[HippieVeganJewslim]

Even if they did eliminate firearms, firearms still would be there. We need more firearms for every person.

[ChiTown33]

Never. It's part of the bill of rights our country was founded on this fundamental RIGHT.

[gorydetails]

Fuck off gun grabber

[Pterodon]

Never. Try and take them. I dare you
