listen folks:

Countries that have stricter gun control have less gun violence. Period. look it up. If you want to decrease gun violence, you must decrease the number of guns out there.

You cannot hunt with a pistol. They are for killing People at close range. does it seem safe to you for millions of people to be carrying person killing machines ? sure, most of them will be safe and responsible, but it only takes a few nutjobs to kill lots of people.

Gun proponents use the argument that guns are for protection. How often are guns used for protection? how many people have used guns in that fashion? Now, how many people have been murdered by guns? do the math. Guns are a net harm to society.

Now I agree that it would be hard as hell to control existing guns, but don't you think it's worth it? I personally do.
