How could anybody not want gun control?

Gun control is what it says “GUN CONTROL”! That doesn’t mean the removal of ALL guns. It just means back ground checks and mental health assessments, so that the wrong person isn’t going around carrying a firearm. What’s wrong with that?

I know that there are responsible gun owners. Responsible gun owners that collect guns, or have multiple gun, but keep them closed up. And only use as needed. You’re not going to catch them, buying a gun, that is made to shoot and kill innocent people. You’re just not.

I am not anti gun. I support responsible gun owners. I also support gun control. It seems many are more scared about losing their guns than scared about losing the lives of loved ones.

Uk on guns? We don’t have guns and we don’t have mass shootings I think it’s a very valid point indeed masterlee lol

MasterLee · 56-60, M

@Cford771 yes you have machetes though. Lots and lots of those being used.

Cford771 · 26-30, M

we’re not perfect but at least parents don’t have to worry about there kids going to school and getting shot in a mass shooting... @MasterLee

@Cford771 America is number one in mass shootings. Period. The UK and other countries, have gun control. We don’t. There’s something wrong with this. America should be as low as any other country. We’re not even hand in hand.

@NaturalBeautyQueen we are good. The liberals whine about some 18 'mass shootings' last year there were 2. This is all liberal virtue signaling.

NaturalBeautyQueen · 41-45, F

@MasterLee first of all, how do you know I’m a liberal? Second of all, where did I say anything about 18 mass shootings? Because I can guarantee you I don’t agree with 18.

Cford771 · 26-30, M

@MasterLee you can’t call someone a liberal because you don’t agree with there comment 46 - 50 I’m younger than you and have more commen sense that’s pretty embarrassing...

MasterLee · 56-60, M

@NaturalBeautyQueen gun violence is extremely low in America. The liberals try so hard to use it as an issue. You are more likely to die of heart disease, car accidents, surgery mistakes than anything else. Why fight so hard for a low statistic.

@MasterLee That's a bad rhetorical argument as somebody could turn that around and point out that reduces the need for guns for self-defense.

Cford771 · 26-30, M

Well because people’s kids are dying isn’t that enough for you to try and be a little tougher? Just because you want to be tough on gun control doesn’t make you a liberal it shows you have a heart and basic common sense. @MasterLee

NaturalBeautyQueen · 41-45, F

@MasterLee I see that you hadn’t answered my question.

MasterLee · 56-60, M

@NaturalBeautyQueen there were almost 40000 car deaths last year. Ban cars. Dangerous weapons.

NaturalBeautyQueen · 41-45, F

@MasterLee how about you read some of the tweets, from the survivors? How about you watch the videos of the mothers that lost their children? Since you want to ignore the facts. They’re the ones saying “enough is enough”. And that “they got to do better”. Their words.

NaturalBeautyQueen · 41-45, F

@MasterLee I don’t have anything to say to somebody that just keep throwing numbers. I don’t do debates.

Cford771 · 26-30, M

Out of them how many were to hurt and murder people in cold blood? Not really a valid argument... @MasterLee

MasterLee · 56-60, M

The whole ban guns argument is not valid.

NaturalBeautyQueen · 41-45, F

@Cford771 he’s just throwing numbers.

NaturalBeautyQueen · 41-45, F

@MasterLee where did I say anything about banning guns? Show me where exactly did I say that.

Cford771 · 26-30, M

when people are using them to commit horrible acts and kill people in cold blood.. I think it’s disgusting you can’t see a valid argument if you have kids you should be ashamed of yourself.

MasterLee · 56-60, M

Yep this is boring. Feel free to whine amoungst your liberal friends.

NaturalBeautyQueen · 41-45, F

@MasterLee Bye

Cford771 · 26-30, M

Must of rattled his cage a little lol.

NaturalBeautyQueen · 41-45, F

@Cford771 exactly. Gunnowners run in my family. They are very responsible. And I feel safe with them. An incident happened to me, where a man tried to take my baby from me. And my first thought was “if I had a gun....” So I’m not anti gun, like I said. And I sure as hell don’t want ALL guns taken away. Obviously.

I also lost loved ones, because of a crazy person. How did they get a gun? Is what I don’t understand.

Guns aren’t and shouldn’t be for everybody. And that is what gun control is for.
