Is it just the culture?

Arm more Americans, have national concealed carry reciprocity and make stand your ground laws a new amendment.

I used to think conservatives would never turn in their guns.

Now we know they absolutely would (see 2020 and 2021). They would line up like good little cucks to hand them over.

Exactly!!!
Just look at other country with low gun violence such as Japan. They all did exactly that. You stop gun violence with more guns, just like you stop earthquakes with underground explosives and chitty construction.

Easy: have fewer guns and stricter gun control laws. But the USA doesn't want that.

If I didn't care about anything else?

- mandatory death penalty for murder with an expedited time frame for appeal. no more stalling the process until the natural end of the killer's life.

- other gun crimes earn mandatory hard labor. length of time depends on severity of crime.

- mandatory reparations to the victims of your crimes. rob someone and your future wages are garnished until the victim is made whole

- ban employers from discriminating against ex cons. Once you do your time you should not be driven back to crime because they cannot get an honest job

In addition, any cop setting up a suspect, any prosecutor railroading a defendant, and lab tech witholding or altering test results, etc., automaticall receives the same sentence a wrongfully accused suspect received or would have received.

Yes you can stop most of the types of gun violence we see daily in the news.

What the right don't want you to believe, is that when you ban guns - it makes the current stock value skyrocket. That makes it very hard to obtain the guns - so random shootings by people who looked at each other wrong, goes down.

The right made guns legal, because they know that the blacks, natives, and Asians finna come for that ass one day.

How many more of your neighbors, friends, relatives must be randomly slayed by a nobody before you see the light?

Also the police should be heavily armed instead to deal with any incidences of shootings

Doesn't matter what you do with new legislation if ghetto gang culture keeps getting glorified. Not sure how you tackle that. Maybe if hollywood got together and stopped writing stories glorifying gangsters and maybe if people stopped writing/playing rap music glorifying gangsters.

Need some positive role models and stories out there.

Like I said, if I didn't care about anything else, but that last one has been floated around. I don't know what came of it, but Republicans in NC were looking to "ban the box" a few years ago...that question on job applications that asks about criminal history.

Obviously the answer to people in cities shooting each other is to restrict people in the rural areas from owning guns, ammo, and real magazines.

all i know is thar legal gun owners are the demographic least likely to commit a crime in this country, so thats not the problem.

heres some factors:

- gang violence perpetuated by inner city cultures and allowed by inner city demmocrats

- anti depressants handed out like candy in this country which are proven to cause users to commit brutal crimes

- mass amounts of narcotics that flow in from south america and china, which in turn facilitates my first factor

Big country, depends on where you go. A majority of the areas, you are good to go.

To find a map of where those prone areas are, look at a voting map and stay out of blue areas.

Not at all. In most areas where "gun culture" is life, where everyone who is a law abiding citizen has guns and many carry, crime is very low and actual incidents of shooting is even lower. Hiphop culture, crime is very high and shooting are quite common.

deportation for certain offenses / repeat offences. anyone can be an upstanding citizen but not everyone chooses to be. if someone won't follow the laws, then strip them of their citizenship and remove them from society. it would be more humane than the prison system, and it's kind of an obvious solution when you think about it.

Compared with white men, the researchers found that black men experienced 27 more firearm homicides per 100,000 people annually nationwide (29.12 for black men vs. 2.1 for white men).
Despite having 3x the amount of guns per capita than European countries(whites only) gun crime is on par with most of them.

Arming good guys is the only option.

-taking guns away from law abiding citizens while criminals keep their guns is retarded

-taking away our right to defend ourselves from a tyrannical government is also retarded

Taking guns away is not an option, so the only option is to arm up the good guys. You can't eliminate all violence, it's in our human nature, but if everyone is strapped then criminals will think twice about starting a gunfight. And when someone does start shooting, they can be taken out quickly and the damage to good people can be minimized
