he makes a point where he says gun control doesn't stop crime....of course it does....look at the homicide rates of every single other country... 10:23 of the video....and yeah i know every american who reads this will tell me to eff off...not saying people shouldn't own guns but don't tell me guns don't kill people...people do. stats don't lie. again....just look at the stats and really read into what i'm saying....but to my american friends of course you have the right to your second amendment. not going to argue that...it's just not for the rest of us

@beermeplease I firmly believe you are never going to get guns out of American society. Its just too late for that. But you can regulate gun ownership and severely punish anyone carrying or owning without a legal right.. If thats not good enough for you, best find another country to live in. Like the speaker, I never have to consider my safety or the safety of those I care about when I travel anywhere.😷

@whowasthatmaskedman unfortunately in canada there is no deterrent for illegally owning a firearm and we have gang bangers shooting at each other. but at least that's at each other. just glad we don't hear kids entering schools or movie theatres picking off people or from roof tops like in las vegas....

@beermeplease Yes. I have a theory about that.. But it sounds vaguely conspiracy theorist, even to me..Its regarding the stresses and disfunction of US society that raises frustration to breaking point.😷

@beermeplease Gun control does not stop crime, it increases it!

@Nitedoc @beermeplease Unfortunately overseas stats disagree with you.. BUT. It is possible that trying to control firearms in a country already saturated with them might cause a pushback reaction from the unruly mob who shouldnt have had them in the first place. We might call this "The Rittenhaus effect"😷

@Jonjdw I am not sure "stupid" is the right word for general use, although i am sure it applies to some. American society has been artfully manipulated by money for decades now. The consumer society relies on people being unhappy, but believing that the purchase of some product or service will make them "better" in some way..😷

@beermeplease The stats are very clear that gun control doesn't reduce crime anywhere in the US. I have written essays and articles about this over many years and I'm not going to waste my time trying to convince anyone who cannot or will not listen to the facts about it.

@Nitedoc While I can go pretty much anywhere (Not being in the habit of walking past noisy nightclubs at 2am) and not worry about thugs, low or high life..Its a very different culture.😷

@whowasthatmaskedman I'm not knocking what you have there at all. I just do what I have to do under different circumstances.

@Nitedoc what are the homicide rates/stats in the usa regarding firearms compared to the rest of the world. that is the focal point here...not just crimes...but homicide/death regarding firearms...can i make it any more clear?
