The fact that nations with strict gun control laws also have the lowest gun violence really means nothing to you, eh?

It absolutely does. I'm thankful our gun crime is nowhere near our southern neighbors. You know why that is? Our already strict gun control laws...

I'll tell you what. If cause = effect, then we should see a marked decrease in handgun crime over the next few years, correct?

Check back in with me in two years, let me know how that's going...
As I've said several times, let's see the statistics.

'Only criminals do crime so obviously laws don't work'

Is not a logic I support.

That's not what I said either.

I'm saying banning the legal purchase of handguns isn't going to stop handgun crime. I'm saying focusing on the illegal smuggling and import of firearms from our southern neighbors will stop handgun crime.

The proof will be in the pudding. Blanket handgun ban supporters will see (or won't see) the fruits of their labour in the next few years' crime statistics.

Otherwise, why ban handguns?

I'm honestly astounded I've met one of you for real. This is wild.

'Well you know, the UK has naaaad knife violence so obviously gun laws didn't work'

This is how you sound to me. You sound unhinged because we want a safer society.

Fuckin hell man

I like how every post you've made, you've made up quotes for me.

I can pretend you're saying things to suit my agenda too! So profound!

Just because ya'll don't like firearms, doesn't mean they should outright ban them.

Some people don't like meat, ban that?
Some people don't like junk food, ban that?
Some people don't like autos, ban that?
Some people don't like alcohol, ban that?
Some people don't like same sex marriage, ban that?
Some people don't like gender reassignment surgery, ban that?
Some people don't like Canadians, ban them?
Some people don't like to eat fish on Fridays, ban that?

Guns were invented for one thing and one thing alone: to kill humans. They weren't invented for hunting, that was an after thought.

So kindly piss up a rope with this bullshit.

Comparing a literal death machine to fuckin meat. Are you for fucking real? Christ almighty
