If guns got banned because of the texas shooting would people be better off or worse without them?

@TheRascallyOne and every other kind of murder

@TheRascallyOne hasn't done so in Australia. Or Scotland. Or, or, or,or, or, or

@McGeeisme yes, stabbings and strangulation and other various outlets of homicide are elevated in countries where guns are banned. even shootings still occur in those countries. a criminal or bad person is going to do bad things irregardless of the law.

@DeluxedEdition show your evidence. For every nation you claim this to be the case in.

@McGeeisme oh please... 🙄

some mass stabbing attack in the UK pops up in the media all the time...
because getting stabbed to death is so much better than being shot... 🤔

And Australia? without any means to defend themselves, their police have become as corrupt and tyrannical as the russian kgb or east german stasi... not sure I'd boast about it...

@wildbill83 you're insane.
The numbers for just Australia show that both homicide by firearm (down very dramatically) and homicide by other methods (not as dramatic but down, and it began it's downward trend when firearm homicides began their downward trend). Only suicides by other methods are up and not by much. Barely discernable.
So, you love the idea of being able to kill someone with a gun. Fine. Take that attitude and get the hell off my response.

@TheRascallyOne it hasn't gone up in Australia

@wildbill83 i don't even argue with people like that. that is called willful ignorance. he does not acknowledge the truth because he simply does not want to.

@DeluxedEdition the statistics simply do not support your stance. Learn to read
