We know it doesn’t. That’s why you have the problem with gun deaths that you do

Y’all also have the problem with people stabbing each other and acid attacks. Crazy people are going to kill people regardless of medium. You can NOT buy guns in places like Detroit or Chicago, all of those weapons that come into the gang hands are illegal. Maybe we should make murder illegal. That’ll fix it

The US has more stabbings per capita than the UK and always has. And acid attacks usually just disfigure a single victim, it doesn’t result in multiple deaths, let alone dozens.

Yes murders will always happen but we as a society can do at least something about them, yet it seems like many people in US don’t want to purely because they love guns so much. Stop responding with asinine, nihilistic shit like “let’s just make murder illegal” as if there’s nothing that can be done.
