Yeah but that's just life what're you gonna do, ban all guns?
see my previous comment
Plus once the guns are banned, then knife attacks become the norm and when you hear 10+ people get knifed is it gonna be "we need common sense knife control" or do you just go well forget me
The point is, x is the most efficient Flash Mob tool, so x is used. x is banned, y becomes the most efficient Flash Mob tool, then z, then so on until the government tries to regulate forks to have quarter inch pikes so you cant stab someone w/ them idk
you cannot be as dumb as to continue to think that there will be the exact same amount of deaths if all guns where taken.
again, i think its completely unrealistic as a solution, but you cannot keep denying the reality that literally almost every other country in the world that has guns banned in some capacity has orders of magnitudes less gun violence or deaths then the USA
It becomes apparent how insignificant guns really are in the grand scheme of things when you look up the most deadly Flash Mobs of all time, where the overwhelming majority of them are not gun related. Mostly bomb or chemical. Or plane.
in all of those examples, the government regulated or changed entire industries from preventing stuff like that happening again
heard of the TSA? have you ever tried to buy any fertilizer and then they card you? theres literally hundreds of rules in place because those things happened (some of them bad some of them where extremely effective at curbing those kinds of violence)
and totaled over time, gun deaths still are a huge number. you can't be like "oh man look this honor student killed 3 people, thats NOTHING compared to 911!!!"
like there where 19,384 murders involving a firearm in 2020 ALONE
[1] which is like 6x the death toll of 911 which is like the most significant terrorist attack with a plane in the past 10 years. (idk the actual death toll of plane or bomb attack over the last century you can clue me in if you do)
