Why we have a "problem" with guns un the US

[RoshawnMarkwees]

(This topic assumes for the moment that we do, indeed, have a 'gun problem" in the US, regardless as to how absurd reality demonstrates that notion to be.}

Q: Why do we have a "gun problem" in the us?
A: 318.9 million people is a HUGE sample size; with such a huge sample size, tiny percentages turn into anecdotally noticeable numbers.

Q: What's the solution to that problem?
A: There is no sound solution to statistical anomalies.

If you take any other nation as a sample size, are the percentages the same? Show your work.

We don't have a "gun problem"; we have a people problem. Americans must be innately more violent than any other people. Because, after all:

Anti-gun illogic.
That picture shows a world without knives. Pretty stupid. The same logic applies to guns. People with knives cut tomatoes, people with guns shoot people.
Put a knife next to that tomato and see what happens. Add a person and see what happens.

That knife won't cut by itself just like that gun won't pull it's own trigger.

Be careful. A lefty might bludgeon you to death with the side of his hand.

Huh. That's what I said.
And, that problem is tiny.

As long as you're not the one getting shot.

"You'd think differently if it happened to you" isn't a sound argument for anything.

So as I said upthread, the problem must be Americans, because statistically Americans are much more violent than anyone else in the industrialized world.

If so, the "problem" doesn't have a solution.

Maybe if the government passed out guns to everybody for free like they do with condoms, leftists would start to see guns as a right.

With federal subsidies for those that cannot afford them,.
After all, what's a right that you cannot afford to exercise?

and it's people like this that want to ban Assault Weapons.

Don't worry... people like this are usually killed by their own stupidity before they have a chance to reproduce.

Geez, I know that! My point is that freebies are the only thing some people respond to as "rights".

To the contrary, they hire scary looking men to protect them
