Is there any scientific evidence that everyone having a gun makes mass shootings less likely? Of course not. And there is not any scientific evidence that more gun control makes mass shootings less likely either. Sweden, Finland, Norway and Canada has a lot of guns perhaps as much like the US has per capita but you never see so much mass shootings like in the US. No. The US has an attitude problem. https://youtu.be/9L7twJFrxao |

Strong voices that are against laws and regulations to tighten the arms supply instead want more citizens to be armed. A position that Trump has also signed. Many want people in a mall or teachers at the school to arm themselves so that they can neutralize or shoot a shooter who comes in and shoots wildly around them. Well that doesn't work and likely it will do more harm than good. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/arlington-police-shooting-body-cam-video-cop-accidentally-killing-maggie-brooks-shooting-at-dog/ |

When will the stupidity end? El Paso, Dayton make 251 mass shootings in the US in 216 days, more shootings than days in the year. |

How do we control these few people without controlling everyone?To me it looks like the US doesn't even try to control nutters from easy access to guns. Well I guess a nutter has the same constitutional right to bear arms like everyone else in the US... |

Nutters aren't allowed to exist in the USA! Everyone is sane. The evidence showing that there are nutters is fake and a false flag operation.How do we control these few people without controlling everyone?To me it looks like the US doesn't even try to control nutters from easy access to guns. Well I guess a nutter has the same constitutional right to bear arms like everyone else in the US... The problem is nutters now have a right to be nutz. Many choose to be nutz because life is easier. If you are sane you actually have to work and be productive, you don't if you are nutz. You control the people by making gun nutz buy a tax stamp. It works very well for machine guns, it will work very well for semi-auto too. <ed>and Texas is an open carry state, nope, still had to wait for the cops. |

Looks like one state is starting to get a grip on mental illness. KOMO's Eric Johnson explores the impact the drug and homelessness problem is having on our city and possible solutions in "Seattle is Dying." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpAi70WWBlw ... |

The only reason that the US has so many firearms related deaths is the number of firearms. All the numbers are available at https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/10/2/16399418/us-gun-violence-statistics-maps-charts |

Before we legally define potentially millions as possible mass murderer's. We should think this through.I've thought it through and I reckon that you guys have potentially "tens of millions" of murdering nutters over there all ready and it's probably caused by all those fracking chemicals that you have in your ground water over there. |

Well it can't be those then as we don't go around having a mass murder or 2 a day over here. ;-)And all the hormone treated meat, and GMO crops of course.Before we legally define potentially millions as possible mass murderer's.

Is there any scientific evidence that everyone having a gun makes mass shootings less likely?Absolutely correct moomin... 53 shot, 7 fatally in Chicago weekend shootingsAbsolutely correct Clyde.... May I add......I will give up my LEGALLY acquired and owned AR when there is UNQUESTIONABLE PROOF that the millions of similar weapons ILLEGALLY acquired and possessed have been removed from the hands of criminals and nut cases. After all, the Government has done SUCH a good job with Heroin and Fentanyl. Criminals don't abide by laws...that's why they're criminals. And from a very intelligent woman 'of color'....

I eagerly await your response to the following... A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

How's this work for you. Remembering we have 50 states. A "well regulated militia", back when, our constitution was written meant every able bodied and armed man who was not in the Army whose help could be requested in a time of danger. ... |

But that's not what's written.Actually it is, but there are some commas in the text that make it ambiguous. And it's difficult to see if it's a comma or not in the original handwritten text. |
