The world needs more guns

I don't really see how you managed to get an intact one into the states without customs ripping it apart and disabling its action. But i'm assuming you're joking.

Great news, they're already near impossible for civilians to really get their hands on without a class III FFL and a stuff ton of paperwork. I don't think we need fully automatic weapons either. Though i do admit i occasionally indulge in a bump-fire stock every so often, which is already a work around to the whole full auto fiasco.

lol

people are focusing too much on the weapons being used to kill rather than the people who are killing, and I just don't understand that.

if there's a rise in obesity rates, you don't loving take away spoons and forks, you promote healthy living and weight loss programs and stuff like that.

less violent weapons, less ways to defend yourself from people who will get violent weapons anyway

It's just the way I see it. I think there would be less violence.

i'd recommend trying to line up the way you see it with logic and statistics that prove the point that removing guns from the hands of citizens doesn't remove them from the hands of criminals. it's literally just liberal fearmongering

Sadly I am

You are advocating violence!!!!

Instead of putting all the focus on guns, let's address the societal and psychological issues that result in shootings.

the sad thing is that you can't really predict someone going postal and shooting buildings up. i think that the best that can be done is to improve police responses and discourage massive acts of violence.

or give everyone a gun and just let citizens shoot whoever tries to pull some stupid stunt

I don't need any of your damn common sense in this thread boy!

and, according to statistics, more victims
I'm shooting targets, better take my guns away until further notice! They're designed to kill after all, we don't want those guns murdering anyone!

But seriously if that's not what are you're getting at when you're telling me guns are designed to kill then I don't what your point is

I hear CNN for 9 hours every day I'm at work, I know, anyone who pays attention to the news on this tragedy knows. That doesn't change my point that the ban didn't stop the criminals.

Lmao calm down
I literally only said that guns are designed to kill and previously that I don't see any use in owning more than a handgun for practicality even though I own multiple guns I don't even see the need

Guess what, you can use a pellet gun for target practice too

And you said they were illegal in the state. So what, my point is they were purchased and registered legally so your argument that they're illegal in the state is stuff

Right now it's pretty easy to get a gun for yourself. So the people that want guns will most likely end up with guns. The people who don't want a gun will not end up with a gun. Increasing the amount of guns will not drastically change how many people own/want to own guns. Take me for example. I am indifferent about owning a gun. I have no interest in really ever owning one, and I probably won't. I think the majority of Americans are the same way, but I could be wrong.

Increasing the amount of guns/making it easier to get a gun won't suddenly put a gun into everyone's hands. It will make it easier for people that WANT guns, and yay for them, but for everyone else, it will still be just as easy to go and not get a gun.

that's not what i'm getting at. taking them away wouldn't do any good is what i'm saying.

Not exclusively. Cowboy action shooting and sport fall into these categories. Skeet shooting and light powder loads for target plinking is an actual pasttime (big shocker).

Guns can come into other applications too.

There will be no taking away of guns. The people who want them will still have them. If you are passionate about owning a gun for your protection, then you will still be able to get one. It's not like I'm advocating a complete ban on guns.

this idea is interesting
