If existing laws, especially on a state level, are easily ignored or unenforceable, do you know what this typically means? The legal regime does not work, and it is time for some new laws that apply for the entire country. |
Yes, we have decided as a society that the benefits of driving in cars is worth the amount of maiming and killing they cause. The vast majority of our population seems to agree. It’s true; we are sacrificing lives for our convenience. And some segment of our population believe that the benefits, whatever they believe they may be, of our current gun culture and laws are worth the amount of maiming and killing they cause. The problem is that over half of us don’t agree. We don’t see the benefits outweighing the death toll. To you it’s worth it for children to die from gun violence so that you can own a gun. Can you just admit it? |
If existing laws are ignored any new laws may be ignored as well. If you think taking all guns away is your position, you are peeing in the wind and focusing your energy on a can't win position. I personally think that any offense involving a gun should have a mandatory punishment about double what currently exists even if we have to build more prisons. Right now, some convicted offenders are walking free with probation (or are not prosecuted) which is insane and feeds to the fear. |
This is true. People who have jumped through all the legal hurdles to obtain a concealed carry permit are the most law abiding in our society. |
| No other advanced country in this world has random mass shootings like we do. |
No, they will never admit it. |
Care actually provide a benefit to society. They are not made simply to kill others like guns. Stop comparing cars to guns. I completely agree with the PP who said all guns should be banned. Pathetic society we live in that so many people don’t understand this. |
