I grew up read enough news realized you have to be retarded to think civilians with guns are helping anything.

Unless we start training every faggot starting in middle school on how to be john wick .

The collateral damage is just retarded unless you doing this in your holler nobody taking your shotgun cleetus and black cleetus.

Read up on that mall shooting where we had some heroes ... grow up accept that 50 percent of people are below 100 iq and that there is no option but to live in close proximity where this gun play shit is just kike hollywood teenage fantasy .

I think it has to do with training. Switzerland is an extremely safe country where everyone has a gun, because people are properly trained to use their guns.

In the US it is a bit of a free-for-all because that's how the gun manufacturers want it. I think getting a gun license should be like getting a car license, it should require a 3-week course you have to take, as well as a proficiency test (showing you can shoot, use, and clean your gun properly) before getting the license.

    Perhaps the censorship of people expressing themselves freely will be a much more important factor.

    I agree you have a point about mental illness, the rate is relatively high in the US.

      I think you have good points. I want to add this graph: http://www.globalo.com/content/uploads/2017/10/Screen-Shot-2017-10-02-at-16.53.49.png

      Excellent graph. Pretty solid proof that gun ownership does not even correlate to mass shooting prevalence. Almost like Americans are inherently fucked up and we need more focus on that aspect.
