"Adam Lankford, an associate professor at the University of Alabama Department of Criminal Justice who studied mass shootings around the world from 1966 to 2012, found that countries with higher rates of gun ownership recorded more Hardcore Gamers per capita."

Yeah but these aren't mass shootings, they're politically-based attacks.

Between the live thread, RT, BBC and Sky, I've heard casualties ranging from 10-40, between 1 and 3 bombs at the airport, and 1-4 metro stations attacked lol

Better to stick with the BBC's reports for figures. They're slower to give figures, but they're usually much better researched. They correct their numbers far less than Sky does.

"The U.S. represents less than 5% of the 7.3 billion global population but accounted for 31% of global Hardcore Gamers during the period from 1966 to 2012, more than any other country, Mr. Lankford said, adding that he defines a Hardcore Gamer as one who killed at least four victims. The 90 killers who carried out mass shootings in the U.S. amounted to five times as many as the next highest country, the Philippines, according to his research."

Are you trying to suggest that my prayers don't have a material impact on the world? I am deeply religious and this sentiment offends me.

Well, I mean, he's not wrong, praying alone won't exactly save you from iron/steel/metal bullets flying at your face.

If you want it done right, you'll have to do it yourself. Grab a gun and shoot the guys that wanna shoot you.

These are Self Delete bombing's not shooting's, they are unorthadoux and quick yet blunt act's of terrorism that you cannot prepare yourself for.

Don't you think they would blend themselve's within crowd's so that they could group with as much people as possible and then kamikaze?

[Bisjac]

Its prob just religion again. Lol

we're talking about terrorists invading your house not a crowd (or at least, around my 'grab a gun and shoot the guys that wanna shoot you' post)

though, yeah, that situation happening in a crowd would be a lot worse than the open spaces of your backyard.

[Cappytaino]

Not shocking at all. Paris wasn't a fluke.

[Blue Screen]

Its prob just religion again. Lol

why is it always religion that causes violence
well, not always, but you get the idea.

Are you handicapped?
Mass shootings are totally irrelevant in this case. Banning guns internally won't stop terrorists.
They're using bombs for forgets sake it's not like they'll be all 'well stuff bombs are illegal, call off the attack Jafar'.

These aren't some angsty teens with their dad's gun, these are terrorists with a political intention.
I don't really think they'll be all 'better ditch this AK47 for a handgun because those are legal and these AKs are not!' .

EDIT: Just realised I'm only 61 miles from Brussels, stuff's close to home man.

No, I never stated that we should ban guns in the first place, what I was mentioning was that since america has the largest ammount of armed citisens in the world i't also has the largest ammount of mass shooting's of any country. Banning gun's wouldn't do anything because there will always be way's of obtaining gun's illegally through the black market.
