She had options and she chose the worse one. That's all on her.


Your priority in any hostile situation is to always be on the defensive and pull yourself away from harm. She was at home, the guys weren't on her property, breaking into her house or anything. She got her gun and went outside at the group. Dont blame guns because a grown adult made a horrible decision.
it's simpler than that.


having the gun gave her the option of using it. when she was in an emotionally volatile state she used it and ended up having herself and her baby killed.

without the gun, no death. period.

you cannot change the way she reacted.

She still had options, period. She is a grown ****ing woman and made a bad decision. What if they had knives? Would you be asking the same thing?

What if she killed him with her car? Are we going to try to ban cars? They can kill just as easy as any weapon if not easier.

It's ok. When you know you're wrong and your argument doesn't make sense, better to attack the other person, just don't try that in person while in the US, you'll most likely get shot.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

we are not debating whether or not her choice is wrong in that moment

the fact remains, the gun was a choice to her. if you removed that choice, her and her child lives.

Or maybe she's raped and tortured and gets murdered anyways. I hope to god you're not a lawyer. You are terrible at all this.

You're never going to convince most Americans OP, it's pointless.

One would think that if NEITHER party in that situation had a gun then it would have ended quite differently.

Why not just take the license plate down, call the cops, report a hit and run, and let the authorities handle it? Why follow a woman home? They needlessly escalated the situation.

Edit, read the story. Seems like the guy did everyone a favor removing this retarded ass woman from society. Thank him and thank guns. May his next kill be just as righteous.

poor decision making happens to everyone. you included.

but when the gun is also an option when poor decision making is involved, it could lead to this. that is my point.

Way too many weapons in the hands of American citizens IMO. Idiots buying 5 guns a month and crap like that needs to stop.

Plus a lot of people don't have the emotional stability to remain in control in a dire situation involving deadly force.
So better to just let yourself be killed/harmed in a dire situation, with your logic.

Why does buying a lot of guns make you an idiot? How often does a tragedy happen just because someone had “lots of guns”?

You argue for Covid vaxxx but phds are the least likely group to be vaccinated. You can’t have it both ways. Maybe just try a different argument and stop bringing education levels into it next time.

Didn’t read.

So we should give our guns away because there’s an alarming rate of idiots?

That’s actually even more of a reason the logical law abiding citizens should stay strapped.

Lol at lib logic. Not even once.

This is the main argument against allowing guns in Australia. Anybody who has experienced aboriginals knows exactly why we don’t want them here.

Think this through, assuming you’re correct that if we simply got rid of guns, murders would lower. How do you get rid of guns? Especially in America where it lawful by the constitution but also very widely accepted that it is our God given right to keep and bear arms. You have to do it by force. So now you have a civil war on your hands, and weak men like you aren’t going to fight in it. You’re going to send other men with guns to go do the fighting for you. Now you have many deaths to and caused by previously lawful citizens.

Then there’s the criminals. It’s already against the law for them to have guns or use them to break the law. They’re already taking their guns away and aren’t successful at it. Sorry, there’s a black market for guns and a **** load of guns in this country. You really should have attempted this argument 250 years ago.

so you are saying the ONLY reason she didn't stop after a fender bender on the road was because she had a gun at home?

You do understand that she could’ve made the choice to stay in without going out there regardless of the gun? You can’t take away my guns over others stupidity.

You do understand that if they DID try to break in, it’s better to have protection while waiting for the cops?

You do understand what just happened with Kyle here? Go watch the video again. If he’d been going around putting out their hurt feelings fires without protection he’d be dead or severely beaten.

Obviously you don’t understand any of this.

Just lol at the answer to there being more vile evil people is to give up your protection.

The US is 32nd in gun deaths per 100k people worldwide.

There's lots of civilized places well ahead of them. El Salvador, Brazil, Guatemala, Honduras, Phillipines, even hubs of justice like South Africa. Iraq is almost double their rate of gun deaths per capita.

Meanwhile, cucked nations like Canada have eight times less per capita, most European and Asian nations are almost 10-50x less. Obviously they don't know what they are doing.

Canada and China don't have the cultural diversity we do. Their murderer rates would be much lower regardless.

Don't forget half the murders are done by 6% of the population. I know I know, pesky facts just get in the way.

Easy to be safe when you're a homogeneous society, with way less people, way less land, and have the US babysitting you.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

What OP doesn't understand is, for every time a fun is used for bad, a gun is used 3-4 times for good. When you ban guns, crime and murder rates don't go down, they go up. Criminals don't follow laws, which is why a gun ban doesn't do shyt.

I'd take any of those countries over China. People still shyt in the streets in China.

correct.

the darker demographic is increasing, while the white demographic is decreasing.

with the current gun laws which were made when America was 90% white, would it still be intelligent to keep those same laws when the country is majority dark?

It’s almost like a certain group is responsible for a vast majority of gun homicides
