Wrong......you guys say gun control keeps the crime rate lower.....Russia is a police state....and can arrest normal citizens easily if they break those laws......the ones who get away with breaking the gun laws....criminals.......again.
You guys just don't get it...normal, law abiding people are not the ones murdering each other with guns.....the criminals in each country are...so you can ban guns for law abiding people all you want....but the criminals will use guns when they want or need them......
As we see in Britain, Amstrdam, Australia, Japan, France......
Those countries you named have very few guns and a government that can enforce gun laws. The complete opposite of Russia.
And gun crime in both Britain and Australia is going up.....in Britain by 4% and they are now arming more British police....
the criminals in all of those countries get guns when they want them no matter what the gun laws are...even in Japan......when their Yakuza bosses decide they want to go to war.......
Criminals clearly DON'T get guns whenever they want. Here, petty criminals and thieves use guns and often end up killing someone. Because they can get one practically by tripping over one in the street. It's why such a high percentage of our crimes involve guns. Not the case over there.
Wrong...the gun crime rate in Britain did not change after they confiscated and banned guns...in fact, right after the ban, the gun crime rate spiked, then went back to the same level it was before the confiscation....so there was no change at all. Now....as the social welfare state fails to raise young males into adult men, the gun crime rate in Britain is up 4%.....after they confiscated their guns.....and they now have to arm more British police, who were previously unarmed......how do you explain that?
So British criminals before and after the gun confiscation were able to get guns...they don't use them to commit murder as often.
Do you know what the real issue is.....you nuts think that having a gun means you must kill with it....and that is where you thought processes fall apart......you hate guns so much you can't think straight when it comes to these issues....criminals in Britain have guns...criminals in Europe have guns...they use them as they need them, they use them to get what they want....they just do not use them to commit murder as often as they do here.....that has more to do with the sub culture of the criminal class in the different countries and not access to guns...
Harder to get guns = harder for criminals to get guns.
Occam's razor says "among competing hypothesis the one with the fewer assumptions should be selected." That would be:
More guns and easier to get guns = more gun use and more gun crime
It's not that hard
Except that is not true.....explain then that after they confiscated guns in Britain their gun crime rate stayed the same? When you get rid of guns for law abiding people, the criminals still get guns...just like they do in all the countries that have confiscated or banned guns for law abiding people.....even Japanese Yakuza get guns easily when they decide to kill each other. Why don't they kill each other more often...because of their criminal sub culture...they want money more than they want to murder each other...but when they do decide to kill each other...they get guns and grenades......
And again....countries with strict gun control..where if normal people are caught with guns the repressive governments step on them...have higher gun murder rates than we do...Mexico, Puerto Rico...Russia.......
You are wrong......
Taking guns away from people who do not commit crime with guns lowers the gun crime rate how? Considering that criminals get guns when they want them......
And in our country....please explain.......
2012.... 11.1 million people carrying guns for self defense, and 320,000,000 guns in private hands..our gun crime rate, our gun murder rate and our crime rate went down, not up.....
in 2013..... 320,000,000 million guns in private hands.....12 million people carrying guns for self defense....our gun crime rate and gun murder rate went down again..., not up..dittos our general crime rate...
Occam's razor fail......
in 2014....2014... over 357,000,000 million guns in private hands, and 13 million people carrying guns for self defense and our gun crime rate, our gun murder rate and our over all crime rate went down...again.....
Occam's razor fail...again.....
Please explain that in light of your theory.....
