Hi, I just thought I should explain to you exactly why banning guns would make things worse. People who get guns to go on mass shootings, do not typically do it legitimately. Furthermore, if we can not secure our borders to keep immigrants and illegal drugs out of the country, what makes you think we can keep guns out of the Country? Criminals will always find a means to get a weapon, and if no one has a gun, no one can stop these criminals. The police cannot be everywhere at once. Why do you think the places shot up are typically schools? Guns are outlawed in schools so the shooter (being the coward that he is) picks somewhere where he won't be shot back at. You think a sign that says gun free zone will stop someone from committing an act like this? Well it doesn't since all schools are "gun free". So.... what makes you think a law making America "gun free" would be obeyed by criminals?

The fact is, criminals would never obey the law. They are criminals. If we made guns illegal, it would be much harder for a criminal to obtain a gun, as they would have to retrieve one by illegal means. This would definitely lower the chances of a shooting.

I would like to at least see automatic guns and large-clip modifications banned.

Here are two reasons we should ban guns (or just automatic guns) anywhere.

- America is the country whose gun/inhabitants is the highest in the world, and its crime/violence rate is by far much higher than anywhere else except maybe countries like Afghanistan or Congo. There is a clear correlation

- Who needs guns? I can rely on an efficient police force, therefore I don't need to rely on a gun to protect myself. Owning guns is admitting that the police in your area sucks.

I think that to own a gun, you should have an university degree. That would be similar to banning guns, since no intelligent person feels the need to prove its virility by owning a big gun.

So your saying if someone was breaking into your house with knifes or whatever they had you would run call the police and wait for them to come. You know a person can do alot of damage in about a minute especially if they have more people with them. I'm sorry but I would rather have guns and protect and not wait and hope the police arrive on time.

Also it wouldn't make it harder for criminals to get guns. Drugs are illegal and yet so many people get them even kids. So if someone wanted to get a gun they would get it. Just look at the gangs that get caught they have stockpiles of guns which means if they ban guns the black market will be selling them or people will buy them off of gang members. Banning guns won't do anything but harm the good people who use them properly, again if someone broke into my house and they had me at gun point i'm screwed. In my house we have 3 SR22. 1 in the kitchen, 1 in the living room, and the other one in a safe in a closet. We have them because were we used to live our house got broken into numerous of times. So if my family was in the living room someone broke in had a gun but guns were banned and we had to give ours up well guess whose getting shot.

It's not demeaning to your local police station if you own a gun. What happens when someone has say been planing to kill the residents of a specific house at a specific d/mo/yr and it didn't matter who was in the house at the time. Well you would need a gun to protect yourself at a moments notice. On average it takes 2 1/2 minutes for any sort of police unit to show up on a doorstep and save you. 2m 30s is all it takes to pull a few gunshots and kill everybody then leave. All it takes.

Wow, this is really getting out of hand.. This world is so messed up.

It is crazy because there was a thing on the news about some person in CA threatening to shoot up a school.

Seriously, I don't see how people can kill and treat it like it is nothing, it is really mind-blowing.

You're dumb.
Banning guns is no solution to crime. Criminals will not have a hard time getting guns because they
will probably have them smuggled here from Mexico as always. And It doesn't matter if you can rely on the police you should be able to keep your 2nd amendment right. Personally If I had a family, I would take matters into my own hands because unless you want a police state with cops on your Dick 24/7 they aren't going to come within minutes while some criminals are robbing your house.
And to have a university degree thats the stupidest thing I have read all day.
Thats violating the 2nd amendment right and people with university degrees are still as capable as shooting
someone with ought a university degree.

And look at England who has banned guns.
They had 35 gun kills but nobody talks about the crime rate and other causes of death,
The crime rate in England is higher because you dont need a gun to commit a crime,
you could use a rock,a knife, or your bare hands. Pretty much anything you can pick up.
Because if someone has the intentions on killing someone else, it not going to matter really how it gets done.

LET ME PUT MY 2 CENTS IN. First off banning guns would do nothing to stop public shootings. NOT EVEN LOWER IT. Reason: It is a proven fact that it is 60% MORE EASIER to buy a gun Illegally so your statement right there is invalid.

Also around 70 percent of the shootings that take place in the USA are committed by gang bangers.
And gangs buy their guns illegally.
Just saying.

"Not even lower it".

Do you have any clue what you're saying there? Banning firearms would decrease public shootings in America significantly without a doubt. Thought it might be easier to purchase guns illegally, how many people do you know sells firearms illegally, compared to stores and services that sell and distribute firearms?

Why are guns legal anyway

For all you saying 'banning guns would make it worse' think about how many incidents happen like this in the UK? little to none
