RE: Should the United States Ban Guns?
Great points mate and it should also be noted that banning people from having guns which we almost have here in the UK - you can get guns but it is very restricted, does not eliminate gun crime. The criminals can still get guns. That means that as a civilian you are at a double disadvantage. Even if you are a ninja you can't defend yourself against a criminal with a gun.
Also agree with you that governments like to ignore the deaths that they cause through war!
ha, yeah even ninjas are vulnerable to guns :)
Guns absolutely increase your ability to protect yourself, your family, and those around you. It's a tad immoral to deprive people of this right in hopes of simultaneously preventing extremely low frequency events. Not sure on the stats, but something like thousands of violent crimes are thwarted annually bc people have guns. Leaving these people vulnerable to predators is irresponsible, certainly doesn't make society as a whole safer.
Yes. Unfortunately we don't have the option here.
Sorry to hear that...hopefully you, and no one you care about, ever need one.
Thanks yes for sure.
