La Times

Contrast that to Switzerland were everyone is required to own a gun and it has the lowest gun related homicide rate in the world.

Contrast Mexico to America, where America has 330,000,000 people and more than 300,000,000 guns and we have a lower gun related homicide death than Mexico per capita.

So I would like to know how banning guns solves the problem of gun violence.

Answer his totally not cherry picked statistics from some NRA shilll. thumb up

Cherry-picked-NRA-shill-stats aside, Mexico's gun problems come from our guns being shipped down South

Dude, you posted this story May of last year and nothing has changed:

Many firearms are acquired in the U.S. by women with no criminal history, who transfer their purchases to smugglers through relatives, boyfriends and acquaintances who then smuggle them to Mexico a few at a time. The most common smuggled firearms include AR-15 and AK-47 type rifles, and FN 5.7 caliber semi-automatic pistols. Many firearms are purchased in the United States in a semi-automatic configuration before being converted to fire as select fire machine guns. Mexico seized in 2009 a combined total of more than 4,400 firearms of the AK-47 and AR-15 type, and 30% of AK-47 type rifles seized have been modified to select fire weapons, effectively creating assault rifles. -snip

So better gun regulation in the US could result in less gun violence in Mexico which would result in Mexico being less of a shithole which would mean less Mexicans would want to go to the US which would lessen illegal immigration.

Bingo.

iirc, numbers show that when Mexico does better for itself, less people want to leave. Go figure.

Silent Master
So the claim is that 100% of illegal firearms in Mexico are from the US?

That gun store would be out of business if that were the case.

Good question

So, if the US isn't the only source of illegal guns. what is to stop the other importers from just increasing their shipments if increased regulation in the US results in fewer US guns being shipped?

And I figured that's probably where they got their "pro gun" stats from.


Even Liberal sources have to get them from somewhere, and NRA shills are the most likely source.

Because getting guns from China and Russia, which mostly go through the US anyway, is much more difficult and costly.

And the guns they get from South America...are almost all US guns.

Robtard
He served in the military, yet somehow can't grasp logistics

Surtur
So what regulations will stop guns from flowing into Mexico from the USA?

Robtard
70% of guns in Mexico originated in the US apparently.

That would be a "majority" of their guns.

Okay, so what regulations could we set up to reduce those numbers?

We should just stop selling weapons to the Mexican military and police. that would certainly make a dent.

That's a good idea, but this also seems to show that Mexico is more of a shithole due to the incessant corruption than because of anything the USA did.

The wall is useless.



Strict gun laws increased homicides in Japan and Australia.

Russia has far stricter gun laws than the US but has a much higher homicide rate.



Gun laws and intentional homicides are not correlated. No amount of pseudoscience studies will change this.

roughrider
People should differentiate between guns and assault weapons. If you want a gun for home defense, that's one thing. But no one outside the police, military, special forces etc. should have access to automatic weapons. You need an assault weapon to hunt deer? I don't think so.

Silent Master
Automatic weapons are already restricted.

eThneoLgrRnae
@rough rider: There is really no such thing as an "assault weapon." At least not for civilians. Civilians don't have access to automatic weapons if those're what you're referring to. "Assault weapons" is a term made-up by the ignorant, anti-gun hysteria left. Any item you use to assault someone with could technically be called an "assault weapon" including but not limited to knives, cars, baseball bats, bricks, etc...


AR-15 does not stand for "assault rifle" either as many dumb lefties think. AR-15's are not "weapons-of-war" as Hillary deceptively called them. Any military would be nuts to go to war with it soldiers armed with nothing but AR-15's when the other side would have real weapons-of-war (fully automatic weapons).

Always love the Back and Forth Love Affair the Love has with "The Science"

And one should really ask.... Is it Legal to carry any kind of firearm from the U.S to Mexico? I mean I hear Mexico has Laws against it...SO How is is it possible to get guns from here to there?

Yeah, I can't help but to always laugh a little and roll my eyes when I hear some anti-Trumper claiming the wall will be "useless." It's ludicrous to think that walls don't work. Tell that to Israel. Tell it to the Pope who is protected by the vatican's walls. Tell it to the Ming Dynasty (if any of those people were still alive that is) who built the Great Wall of China. There are many other examples; and don't give me that BS that those examples are all different than ours at the border. They really aren't.

Would it completely stop illegal immigration and drugs being smuggled into the country? No, nothing could accomplish that. However, it will drastically cut down on both. That's a fact.

Then where are these loonies who go on their mass murder sprees getting the automatic weapons? Several times the story is repeated that they were bought legally. So how are they restricted again? Are you saying they were all done with single pump action shotguns and handguns, or something that mows down a crowd faster?

They're not using automatic weapons.

You can get a license to operate and own automatic weapons (there are specific requirements though) as well as silencers. That said the weapon of choice for most these attacks is the AR-15 semi-auto rifle that has "high" capacity magazines.

You would still need a sharpner.

If there is a line here, then you obviously dont know where it is either, because your a blatant hypocritical lying troll.

It wasn't an insult, are you only this stupid when I am around? He generally posts in a thread called "underage boys seduced by older women." If you had any intelligence you would know that there has never been a mass shooting with automatic weapons and he had no clue what he was talking about, kinda like you on a regular basis.

There's no way to say exactly what would solve Mexico's problems with gun violence

But given that we are the major exporter of guns used by Mexican and other Central and South American cartels, this thread is stupid.
