Re: I'm sick of all the gun control advocacy

Posted by Spider-Pig on Sun Aug 11 11:27:13 2019, in response to Re: I'm sick of all the gun control advocacy, posted by JayZeeBMT on Sun Aug 11 07:20:45 2019.

The Australian gun confiscation didn't work. There's a Vox Article that includes a chart that shows that gun suicides went down after the gun confiscation, but National Review points out that non-gun suicides went down more sharply.

The fact that there was one mass shooting proves that the gun confiscation was unable to completely prevent mass shootings, but it says nothing about whether it was actually effective. For one thing, mass shootings may have been a rare thing in Australia anyway.

Please define "assault rifle." Then we can discuss.

If you are talking of all semi-automatic weapons, the only guns left will be revolvers and shotguns.

???

There are plenty of bolt action, lever action and pump action rifles. Similarly, there are semi-automatic shotguns.

Faux News has more and more lefties on as commentators. One of them actually said that gun manufacturers must be held "accountable" for mass shooting deaths . . . now imagine car manufacturers being made "accountable" for car crashes?

They are, when the crash is due to the inherent unsafeness of the car.

You can kill just as many people with a handgun with a box of ammo in almost the same amount of time. It may take about 10-15 seconds longer to do.

The LION (without reading the whole damn thread) will insert the two cents of him....

There are about 35,000 gun incidents per year out of over 3 million guns in circulation in this country.

ERGO: 99.9% of gun owners have NOT killed or hurt anybody with their guns.

35,000 / 3,000,000 = 0.011 %

One death is too many, but you cannot claim that this is a violent country.

The need to reload allows people to overpower the killer. That's why the limited size magazines are important.

Um, 35,000 / 3 million is 1.1%.

But your denominator is wrong too.

Maybe there are 175 million gun owners.

35,000 / 175 million = 0.02%.

That looks small, but it is comparable to car deaths. And cars get used maybe an hour per day per owner, while many guns only get used hours per year per owner. For each hour that a person has a gun in their possession, far more goes wrong than for each hour that a person is operating a car.

You can reload in a second. Plus, who's going to be close enough and alive to do that? In theory, you can overpower the guy holding an AK as well, IF you knew what you were doing.
