Americans Buying AK47's Like They Are Going Out Of Style

The homicide rate in the US is currently around 10 times the rate on most civilised countries....I wonder how high it would have to get before Americans would start to worry.

There have been something like three major mass murders in the US in the past fortnight - I suspect there will be more to come.

Do you think there will be less murders if Law abiding citizens are not allowed to buy AK-47's? :lol:

Yes.

There would also be less accidental deaths and less suicides.

This is simple, proven fact.

Again - more guns = more deaths. Less guns = less death.

Do you believe people wont commit suicide if they don't have access to guns?
 
There are three tiems as many deaths related to negligent driving than fire arms. There are also many more vehicles than guns. Ban cars?

Cars are designed and purchased for transport.

Guns are designed nd purchased to kill.


btw, Who wants to ban guns?
In countries that have strict gun control they have a epidemic of knife deaths and attacks.

So exactly how many accidental deaths and suicides are caused by AK47s?

What I believe is not imporant here - these are points that have been proven in the US in half a dozen very high level studies.

The studies suggest that people who commit suicide using a gun actually die - many of those who use a knife or drugs live.

Also, it seems guns may provide a motivation for people suffering depression...they know they can do it, and quickly.

Saigon, people like you scare me. Socialists like to impose their will on others by force.

Possibly...but they still have homicide rates 90% lower than the US.
Two thing
1. Possibly? is a bullshit comment
2. 90% and you have a link?

I say possibly because your statement did not list which countries you meant. Nor did it contain a link.

I can link some studies here, but I know one or two for which you will need to either buy a download or buy a book. One of the studies is 250 pages, so it's not a quick read.

I'll link them tomorrow when I have time.

What you believe is not imporant here. but you continue to think because oif guns people will die? Your whole reply is what you think, so if you think it's not important why don't you shut the fuck up?

Because I am presenting information from very thorough studies, conducted by major US universities, peer-reviewed and highly respected.

Facts matter more than opinions, no?


btw. Still waiting for your list of countries, and the links.

Do you have any idea how many "suicides" are declared "suicides" simply because the cops don't want to investigate?

Again, how many suicides and accidental shootings are connected with AK47s?

.

Firstly, I am NOT a socialist.

Secondly, I think you'll find innocent people being shot have had someones will imposed on them.

Don't you think so?

America has a corrupt government now is not the time to try for a gun grab

When I see a bird that walks like a duck and swims like a duck and quacks like a duck, I call that bird a duck

There we concur.

The folks at the Aurora Dark Knight massacre were prevented from defending themselves by the Theater Owners and the city of Aurora.
