Originally posted by SurturI guess if you believe it is worth it then fair enough, I can see how you came to that conclusion more or less. All firearms deaths should really be seen the way though, for example there would probably be a lot less suicides without guns being so prevalent. I doubt I could hang myself, but I could sure as hell shoot myself.
You ask me if it's worth it, I'm telling you that yes, it 100% is. Defensive usage of weapons is done way way way more often. That doesn't even count only for firing it. Example: you try to rob me. I pull out a gun and point it at you. You run the hell away. Boom, that gun just saved my life.It happens far more often than the 12,000 or so deaths per year from firearms(not counting suicide).
If you have some piece of actual gun legislation you feel would have prevented this tragedy....now is the time to suggest it. If you don't have one, what solution are you proposing other than just getting rid of guns?
I wish I had an alternate piece of legislation to offer but I'm not really the kind of person who'd know where to start with such a large issue. It's a conversation that people in your country need to be having, rather than the go-to argument of "GUNZ" "NAH NO GUNZ" "YEAH GUNZ" "NO GUNZ"
Most of the discourse doesn't seem to be very detailed y'know so people need to start actually considering what other options you guys have to stop so many tragedies happening every year. I mean honestly when it's been going on this long, are they even tragedies any more? They just seem to be something that happen now, like it's just accepted that lots of people gon' die.
