This is the only SOLUTION to the US gun problem

This solution worked for all countries that implemented it (Aus/UK).

Complete ban on all firearms (except for law/govt. bodies). This is how it will be done:

- Air tight legislation with 0 loop holes will be introduced.

- There will be a 1 year period that will allow a firearm buy back scheme. Anyone with a gun (legal or illegal) can take the firearm to any center and be compensated in CASH no questions asked.

- How will this be funded? Any firearm in a decent enough condition will be sold abroad. US is the largest arms dealer in the world, this won't be too hard to implement.

- after the 1 year period has passed, anyone still found with a firearm will be subject to jail time AND asset forfeiture no exceptions.

- the asset forfeiture will ensure this works as gun owners will submit if they believe their home/business is in danger if they keep their guns lmao. If it means their family will be put out onto the streets, trust me they'll be obedient

- a new arm of the government will be set up to deal with tracking down gun owners, similar to the FBI or Dea


That's it folks, that's your answer. Sometimes the bitter pill is the best medicine

If you disagree, then pls tell me your solution

Inb4 mental health screening and background checks lmao

Unfortunately taking guns from people = civil war. Guns is part of their religion.

There is no easy solution at this point. Making your own firearms in a decent metal shop isn't excessively hard either.



Good luck with your problems America. No hate, just compassion srs

theres something like 400 laws on the books that arent enforced.

murder rate in united states is 4.8 per 100k.
in europe its 3.00.
small difference considering europe already has most of the crap you spew.

Yes, your solution "worked", as long as you ignore the increased violent crime rates....

Humans have been killing each other since the dawn of time. Why do you expect a "solution" for that? All you want is to ensure free reign by violent criminals.

Somehow, OP describes this as a "solution that worked in Australia"...

From 1993 to 2012, robbery rates:
- In Australia, spiked for five years after the gun ban, took another three years to return to pre-ban rates, and saw an overall 20% decrease during that period
- In the US, with ever-expanding concealed carry, rates steadily dropped with an overall56% decreaseduring that period

100% agree OP, this is the only solution. Rednecks like their guns too much for it to go smoothly though.

What about the gangs in Chicago, New York, LA, Detroit, New Jersey, Mexican cartels, Memphis

Im guessing you plan on going door to door to collect these guns?

OP might be on to something.

Lets ban all drugs next, that will make them go away.

Lets ban all bombs too, no more explosions!

Lets ban all trucks because then people can't drive into a crowd!

And ban murder!

common criminals are incredibly short sighted and opportunistic, if they see a way to make a quick buck....they'll take it.

This is about removing as many firearms out of circulation as possible. Make it difficult for these criminals to get these guns (low supply, high price in the firearm black market)

What about the increase in crime when guns are banned? Look up a country where the guns are banned and see how other crimes rise. Are you ok with that? Because every country that has banned guns has an increase in crime.

There is no stopping the gun circulation, Mexican cartels will smuggle them in just like they do drugs

OP's solution is to create a new high priced black market of violence similar to illegal drugs.

and those increases dropped in the 2-3 years after.

Increase police presence in the most troubled areas and the spike won't be as bad (it's only temporary mate)

Even if the magic wand could erase every gun, violent criminals would still be violent criminals. They'd simply switch to knives, fists, pipes, and any other weapon. While their intended victims are conveniently disarmed from having the most effective self defense option.

The problem is people, not the weapon they choose to use (as evidenced in my previous post).

What proof do you have for it "working" in Aus and UK? There is no direct drop of after gun bans.

I think the opposite. I think gun laws should be relaxed and that every US citizen should have the right and ability to arm themselves and defend themselves if attacked.

Meanwhile in OP’s country during that Woolwich attack a Mohammad was sawing off the head of one of your countrymen with not much more than a kitchen knife in the middle of a busy street and your unarmed police were maintaining their distance watching it happen, blowing their whistles to scare him or something lol

I don't know about you man, but I'd rather have a violent criminal come at me with their fists or a pipe then a gun. The amount of damage a person can do with a knife vs a gun is incomparable. Having everyone armed in a crowded area during a shooting sounds like a recipe for disaster as well. I figure the collateral will be as much if not more than the initial shooting.
