Police: Man killed in home by Aurora PD Monday morning had fatally shot intruder minutes earlier

[2aguy]

And Switzerland everyone under 65 has a fully automatic weapon at home.

Should we take up their gun laws then?

We need to allow people to own actual military weapons yes. Other aspects of their laws don't do anything for crime or mass shootings so no on the other parts.

So you want more guns and less of the parts that actually stop killing. I can't say I"m surprised, you love death.

More Americans have and carry guns, fewer gun murders....

We went from 200 million guns in private hands in the 1990s and 4.7 million people carrying guns for self defense in 1997...to close to 400-600 million guns in private hands and over 17 million people carrying guns for self defense in 2017...guess what happened...


-- gun murder down 49%

--gun crime down 75%

--violent crime down 72%

Gun Homicide Rate Down 49% Since 1993 Peak; Public Unaware

Compared with 1993, the peak of U.S. gun homicides, the firearm homicide rate was 49% lower in 2010, and there were fewer deaths, even though the nation’s population grew. The victimization rate for other violent crimes with a firearm—assaults, robberies and sex crimes—was 75% lower in 2011 than in 1993. Violent non-fatal crime victimization overall (with or without a firearm) also is down markedly (72%) over two decades.

1993 we got background checks. Thank you gun control!

And the gun murder in the U.S hasn't been stopped by background checks..... you are an idiot.

 

[Brain357]

UK has one of the strictest gun control laws in the world.

Gun control and ownership laws

Canada has all the gun control that our gun grabbers want...and their gun crime rate is going up too....thanks to immigration.

Homicide rates:
US: 5.35
Canada: 1.68

Yes....so? Again....they have a rising gun crime rate...which means more criminals in Canada have guns. They don't have criminals who are willing to use those guns to murder victims...yet.

You desparately need to hide gun crime rates going up with gun murder rates.....hiding the fact that their gun control laws are not keeping guns out of the hands of their criminals.

They have stricter laws and a much lower homicide rate. Violent crime has increased here with more carry.

Troll, trolling...always.

Yes they went down right after Bill Clinton passed some gun control.

You have zero proof of either of your statements. You are assuming a causal link where there is none in both cases.

Every male Swiss citizen keeps an ACTUAL battle rifle in his house if he is part of the militia. how does that translate to Swiss criminal gun ownership?

The Truth About Guns in Switzerland - The Coalition to Stop Gun Violence

In Switzerland, all able-bodied men between the ages of 18 and 30 are conscripted for three months and issued either an assault rifle or a 9mm pistol (the automatic or rapid-fire function is removed from these firearms so they fire only in semiautomatic mode) after completing basic military training. These firearms are kept in the home and are to be used only for military purposes, not for sports shooting or personal defense. After initial training, members of the militia are required to do three or four weeks of military service a year until they have served a total of 260 days or reached age 34. Additionally, a law enacted in 2008 requires all army ammunition issued to militia members to be stored in a central arsenal. This citizen €™s militia complements a small number of full-time military personnel to constitute Switzerland €™s army.

Many Swiss men buy their service firearms after they finish military service. Since January 2010, however, they are required to obtain a permit to do so, and must provide some justification for keeping the gun.

[Editor €™s note: Swiss women may volunteer to serve in the armed forces and can now join all units, including combat troops. Currently 1,050 women are active-duty members of the Swiss military.]

Laws governing the private ownership of firearms are equally strict. In 1999, a federal law on arms, arms accessories, and ammunition (the Arms Act) came into effect. The Arms Act requires a permit for each transaction involving firearms or relevant parts of firearms purchased from an authorized dealer’s shop. Permits for purchasing firearms are issued by the cantons. Buyers are carefully screened and have to meet a number of requirements (i.e., minimum 18 years of age, absence of any apparent risk to the buyer or third persons, no entry in the Register of Convictions for violent crimes and/or misdemeanors, etc.). Subsequent transfers of firearms among private individuals have to be documented through a written contract, which must be kept for at least ten years. Additionally, several cantons require citizens to register firearms.

Any person wishing to carry a gun in public must obtain a separate, special permit from their canton. The screening process is essentially the same as for the purchase of firearms. In addition, applicants must demonstrate a legitimate need to protect themselves, other persons, or goods against specificrisks. Applicants must further pass two tests, one on the correct handling of firearms and one on legislation concerning the use of firearms. Permits are valid for five years. Certain exceptions to these rules are made for hunters, those performing military service, and those participating in shooting events.

And none of those laws keep criminals in Switzerland from getting guns. None of those laws prevent their citizens from taking their legal guns into a public place and shooting people.

We do not allow criminals to buy, own or carry guns. Our criminals get guns. Britain banned and confiscated guns...their criminals get guns.

Criminals in Switzerland will not go through their application process....the only ones who will are the ones who wouldn't use their guns illegally without those laws.

You are still stuck on stupid.

They seem to work.

And there is not one gun law in those countries that keeps guns out of the hands of their criminals.....

Here...so simple even you might be able to get it.

Their criminals have guns.

Their criminals point those guns at victims.

Their criminals do not pull the trigger and murder their victims.

Where in that process did their gun control laws stop the criminal from getting that gun?

Actually they obviously do keep guns out of the hands of criminals. The facts don't lie, like you.

Not in Britain, Australia, Canada, France, or any other country in Europe.....their gun crime rates are going up, not down.

AURORA, Colo. – Police confirmed Monday afternoon that the man they shot and killed early Monday morning is believed to have shot and killed another man who had broken into his home minutes earlier.

“Officers arrived to a very chaotic and violent scene,” Aurora Police Chief Nick Metz wrote in a news release issued Monday afternoon.

Metz said officers who arrived at the scene heard gunshots inside the home and ran into an armed man. An officer shot the man, who died at an area hospital.

After clearing the scene, according to Metz, officers found a juvenile injured inside and a man shot dead on the bathroom floor. The child was taken to a hospital for “serious, but non-life-threatening injuries” caused by the intruder, he said.

Both men’s identities will be released by the Adams County Coroner’s Office, Metz said. The officer who shot the resident of the home is on standard paid administrative leave.

Police: Man killed in home by Aurora PD Monday morning had fatally shot intruder minutes earlier

A sad incident. But it really shows what happens when too many people are armed. Imagine police responding to a mass shooting with lots of armed individuals.

No. Shows that the cop in the story needs better training. Its a residence,OBVIOUSLY the resident called and said he had shot an intruder what the fuck did they expect to find?

I'm not sure enough training exists. We have a very good police force, but the country is littered with guns. Regularly running into armed criminals has to make one more likely to pull the trigger regardless of training.

[Aba Incieni]

We already have carnage suzie. We have so many armed criminals, because there is guns everywhere. Crime has not gone down with concealed carry, it has just ensured more criminals carry also.

And your solution is to take guns away from law abiding gun owners.

No wonder you people can't win an election to save your party.

 

[Skull Pilot]

And what does all these guns get us?

Here’s the deal Lucile, if you banned guns you would only be disarming the law abiding citizens and emboldening the criminals. Carnage would ensue.

We already have carnage suzie. We have so many armed criminals, because there is guns everywhere. Crime has not gone down with concealed carry, it has just ensured more criminals carry also.

Criminals will carry regardless of concealed carry laws you idiot

Knowing that victims may be armed is quite an incentive for criminals themselves to be armed. And that's what we have seen, hence why violent crime has increased with more carry.

So let me get this straight

you think disarming law abiding citizens will encourage criminals to disarm?

What the fuck are you smoking?
