If dude was sitting across the street pointed at a door one shot would kill multiple people. It will also penetrate most body armor..aware me on why you need ar 15s in the community?

If it were purely down to mental health, then British people would also be trying to invent alternative ways to mass-slaughter people due to no access to guns.

It means you have no gun violence cuz you have no guns. Overall violence though? A stat we can evenly compare.... This is not a debate. Its Bias opinions from people who think their way is the best.

If it was illegal to spew garbage and moronic statements like half the posts ITT, then we would all be a little brighter. Would neg all the garbage posts ITT but don't have enough negs.

Murder rates in England are miniscule compared to the USA's. Our cops don't carry guns for a reason they don't need them. We have armed police response of course but England doesn't have a gun culture.
I understand yous need guns it's different over there you're not as chilled but I don't understand why you need assault rifles and smoke grenades etc. Surely a handgun or a bolt action rifle's enough I don't think semi or fullys should be available to the public.

Let’s also not forget most murders in the US are gang violence. If you look at Chicago alone (strictest gun laws in the country) they account for the most murders.

I've already stated that 1300 children get shot to death in the USA per year, that includes the inner-cities.
I'm not saying that strict gun control would work perfectly if it were to be brought in now (because everything is so messed up) but the system isseverely flawedand I feel like people are in extreme denial about it and pretending it's all OK.
Just because youwantguns, doesn't make it all OK.

Yea because we have gun free zones and this is where it always happens. It’s sad. The solution is to remove gun free zones. That way citizens can legally protect themselves rather than be fish in a barrel. The areas with the most guns and most CCW holders has the lowest gun violence. Hmm.I always lol at threads like this after another shooting happens in the US. The same **** is said over and over again. There is a reason America is the only first world country where this happens so regularly

And they are a shining example of why what your saying DOES NOT WORK.
What do you not understand about that? Every example of trying what your saying in this country is a literal dumpster fire.
And you want us to keep trying what your saying?

I understand yous need guns it's different over there you're not as chilled but I don't understand why you need assault rifles and smoke grenades etc. Surely a handgun or a bolt action rifle's enough I don't think semi or fullys should be available to the public.

There should be a more grass roots approach that involves education and monitoring of at risk individuals. There's been a few spree shooting suspects who displayed warning signs but were not called out. There's also been many who were thwarted during the spree shooting schemes, but you never hear about them. IMO, putting legal firearm owners at a disadvantage against foes who can easily obtain higher powered weaponry is a bad choice.
If emotional stories are all you react to, I want you to picture a scenario where that 15 year old in the story above had only a bolt action rifle, and the intruders overpower him with superior weaponry and murder him and his 12 year old sister. But no media outlet would advocate that they should have had access to the same weapons - they'll just suggest more gun control is needed which doesn't affect the criminals whatsoever (unless they're caught with the weapon).
