Killing them AFTER they've committed gun homicide is like locking the barn door after the horse is gone.
I agree, but we differ on the solution.
You think that somehow having gun control, or gun laws is going to do something.
We know it won't. A survey of murderers in prison, found that almost none of them got their weapons legally.
So if they are already getting weapons through the black market right now... how would passing gun laws stop it?
And since we already know that the people who obey gun laws, are the people who obey laws already.... all gun laws will do is disarm the public, in the face of an armed criminal element.
Gun crime highest for a decade for four police forces
More than one in five victims of firearms offences, excluding air weapons, was aged under 20.www.bbc.com
And why hasn't gun laws stopped gun crime in the UK?
Saying that the UK has a lower gun crime rate, is irrelevant.
Say you have two people that go on a diet. One guy is 100 lbs, and the other is 200 lbs.
After they go on a diet, the one guy is 150 lbs, and the other is 180 lbs.
Does the guy who gained 50 lbs, then claim his diet is working because he weights less than the 180 lbs guy?
No his diet was a failure. He gained 50 lbs. The other guy lost 20 lbs.
The UK had lower gun crime, before they banned guns. Gun crime is now UP, not down. It might be still lower than gun crime in the US, but it was lower than in the US, before your failed policies were put in place.
The real solution is the death penalty and law enforcement. We need to simply kill these criminals. Dead people don't murder. Put these guys to death, and murder will stop. Guarantee it.
And by the way, I mean NOW, not in 50 years.
Sitting on Death Row: Stanley Adams
Stanley Adams was admitted into the Chillicothe Correctional Institution in 2001.www.wkbn.com
Stanley Adams, in 1999, was at a social gathering, where they were partying and using drugs. Stanley left the "drug party" to get some money. And... he did. He returned the party with a roll of cash, and blood all over himself.
The next day, Esther Cook 43, and her 12 year old daughter were found dead. Stanley had lived with them in the past. His vehicle was seen at the house the day of the murder. The DNA test of blood at the scene, were that of Stanley.
This is clear, undeniable, un-contested proof that Stanley murdered a woman and her 12-year-old child. There is no question whatsoever.
It's now 2020, and his execution on April 16th, was given a reprieve. I actually agree the execution should not have happened April 16th of 2020, because it should have been carried out in 2002.
And you wonder why murder is happening in the US, when justice isn't being carried out for two full decades later? You think a dumb gun law is going to stop murder when justice is failed to be carried out for 20 years?
This is the solution. Kill those people, and put murderers in the ground. Then murder will stop, because people will see that they will not escape justice.
Death to criminals. That's the solution. Your dumb gun laws, have never fixed anything ever. Justice is the fix.
No it's not.

Murderer released after being deemed too old to kill again, kills again
It took a Maine jury less than an hour to find Albert Flick guilty of murdering Kimberly Dobbie with her twin sons nearby in July 2018.

Suspect deemed too old to kill again, kills again.
As long as they breath, they can kill again. Even in prison, they can kill again in the prison.
Dead people kill no one.
Additionally, life for a life. I honestly believe there is only one worth while penalty for cold blooded murder... and that's the death penalty.
How many hundred of people have lost their lives, because of your view that "like locking the barn door after the horse is gone."?
Hundreds of people are dead, because your view.
Stop getting people killed.
