Gun control in perspective

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.



2 - If gun control laws actually worked, Chicago would be Mayberry, USA.



3 - The Second Amendment makes more women equal than the entire feminist movement.



4 - Legal gun owners have 300 million guns and probably a trillion rounds of ammo. Seriously, folks, if we were the problem, you'd know it.



5 - When JFK was killed, nobody blamed the rifle.



6 - The NRA (National Rifle Association) murders 0 people and receives ($$$$ 0) nothing in government funds. Planned Parenthood kills 350,000 babies every year and receives $500,000,000 in tax dollars annually.



7 - I have no problem with vigorous background checks when it comes to firearms. While we're at it, let's do the same when it comes to immigration, Voter I.D., and candidates running for office.



8 - Folks keep talking about another Civil War. One side knows how to shoot and probably has a trillion rounds. The other side has crying closets and is confused about which bathroom to use. How do you think that would work out?



9 A man who left 300,000 guns for the Taliban is lecturing folks on gun control.



There’s more logic and common sense expressed here than probably anything you have seen on the news today

Crazy how someone dies from a car and you blame the phone.

@BlueVeins went over your head did it
@MasterLee he kinda has a point though.
11 may die of using a phone in a car.
But 120 something die from gun use everyday in america, only second to car fatalities.
Now considering how many people have phones, and how many have cars, to how many own guns ....the numbers become very telling .

Im not dissing those who have a geniune interest in guns, and follow all legislation, training and safey, but its the easy illegal access that makes things scary for you guys.

It is kinda out of control.
Stats show it🤷‍♀️
Nowhere else has regular school shootings and other such frequent horrific occurrences.😞

@OogieBoogie if you count everything including suicides but talking real death cars and doctors.
@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.

Such frequent 🙄? The number of mass school shootings here since 1966 is....12

Hysterical, emotive frenzy does not an argument make

@MasterLee Ban cars and reorganize the medical industry.
