[i]Legal gun owners have 300 million guns and probably a trillion rounds of ammo[/i]
As of about 3 years ago it was 12 trillion rounds
Everyone I know makes their own ammo

[quote]1 - Eleven teens die each day because of texting while driving. Maybe it's time to raise the age of Smart Phone ownership to 21.[/quote]
Crazy how someone dies from a car and you blame the phone.

@MasterLee oh dont get me started on the medical system !
Ours is starting to fall apart here. We are seeing evidence of it becoming like Americas, the insured get preference and priority, getting an appointment means you need to be on a list ...blah blah blah .
it was never like that here before.

[i]Nowhere else has regular school shootings and other such frequent horrific occurrences.😞[/i]
Such frequent 🙄? The number of mass school shootings here since 1966 is....12
Hysterical, emotive frenzy does not an argument make

More perspective:
Here is a table from the FBI's Uniform Crime Report database from 2019. Notice the number of homicides with rifles vs. blunt objects. The evil AR-15, the rifle designed to mow down nuns and orphans, is a subset of all rifle murders. Less than 100 people are killed with AR-15s every year. You're 4 times more likely to be bludgeoned with a hammer or baseball bat.

@Prison1203 Moreso a lack of a law than a specific law. Only a few states require citizens to have a license to buy a firearm; anywhere else in the US, you can just purchase one willy-nilly as long as you're not a minor and haven't committed a felony yet. A lot of bad guys fit into those two categories.

@BlueVeins hey dumb guy, they all have to have back ground checks, perhaps you should stay out of discussions when you know nothing about the laws, there are over 26,000 laws on the books, how many more do we need? The cities with the highest gun violence have the most strict laws, now, tell me what laws are going to stop criminals from getting guns and committing crimes and or murder or shootings?

[i]I can go out to the store, buy a dozen rifles today, scratch off the serial number, sell them to criminals, and then do it again tomorrow, and law enforcement will be none the wiser[/i]

Biden also gave some of the weapons ear marked for the Ukraine to Iran.

I think 11 dying texting while driving is very conservative unless yo are speaking of just one state. And if you add in how many are killed by texting teen drivers that number would be greatly increased.
