Zone1 We need a left vs. right experiment

No, I didn't waste my time with the usual gun fetishist deflections.
I stated a fact as to why your citation isn’t credible.. they refuse to show their data.

Any study that does this should be rejected

Do you still cite it?
America will be a better place when we start loving our children more than we love our guns.
Now you’re trying to run from your mistake with meaningless platitudes

Because it's a solid study.

We have 19,000 gun homicides a year.
70,000 gun injuries
23,000 gun suicides
400,000 gun crimes.

Gun violence costs the economy $270 billion a year.

Not a mistake, guy. We are the only country that has to live like this.
 
Create 2 areas in states that happen to have space. Both are given equal resources. One area is governed by leftist Democrat morality, policy, and desired societal norms, the other is governed by the same on the right Conservative side.

I would love to watch the outcome (as a Conservative, I know which would completely fail)
Whee would you rather live, Portland, Oregon or Columbia, South Carolina?

This concludes the experiment.

Many on the Left will want to leave because they won't be able to afford to live their, and their system would go bust.
 
Yeah.....Look how effective Illinois and Chicago gun laws have been at reducing gun violence.

Chicago hasn't had an effective gun law since 2010 when the McDonald Decision struck them down.

Let's get real here. I applied for an IL FOID Card. Do you know what the supposedly "tough" requirement was?

I sent them $11.00

I sent them a picture.

I sent them a questionaire stating I wasn't a criminal or mentally ill.

That was it.

Now, I guess some functionary might have punched in my name into a computer to find I didn't have a record, but this is hardly a thorough background check.

NCIS and state criminal background check

What else do you suggest they do that will stop illegal use of guns to commit violent acts?

NCIS is national. So it is no tougher in IL than Montana.

I have a very simple solution, and it wouldn't involved government.

Make the gun industry completely responsible for background checks. They can set up whatever system they see fit, institute whatever background checks they want.

But they lose liability protections for those gun crimes when they sell a gun to the wrong person.

Now, this is EXACTLY what the banks do now.

I compare the mortgage application process I underwent in 2004 (which was simple, and maybe I shouldn't have gotten one given how much debt I was carrying at the time.) compared to what I had to go through in 2021.

In 2021, they wanted to check everything. Forget I had a Credit score north of 800, or that I was making a lot more money, or had absolutely no credit card debt. Nope, I had to document every financial transaction for the last 5 years. It took over a month to get approval, and even then, the Bank Lady said she was impressed how quickly approval came back.

So the gun manufactures would be responsible for the illegal acts of those using products?
 
Is the manufacturer of the knife responsible for this:

At least 11 stabbed at Traverse City Walmart in terrifying scene before armed shopper helped detain knife-wielding madman​


No more or less than a book that (according to you guys) turns you gay.
 
You guys think books can turn someone gay. So yeah.
Is the truck manufacturer responsible for this?

New Year’s terror attack kills 10 people, injures 35 after killer rammed revelers on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, opened fire​


 
The Leftists have shown us what they can do........now it's our turn.

Should the gdp of red and blue states be compared to give an indication of current information?
Only if you remove all government spending and funding from the computation of "GDP".
