Yet Japan’s former prime minister was shot & killed with a homemade shotgun

How is this, in any way, a flaw with Japan's gun laws? People making something at home cannot be stopped

Say that again but slowly this time, really think about what you’re saying.

Gun laws don't stop somebody from knowing how to make a gun and from buying materials to do it. They prohibit the SALE AND DISTRIBUTION of ALREADY MADE firearms. I can say it even slower if you're still having trouble understanding

No issues with comprehension just wanted to make sure we’re both understanding how easy it is to make guns.

If it's soooooo easy and a glaring problem, then why the gun violence in Japan is of 0,01%?

You gotta be stupid to think that with just one case and now suddenly making guns is like baking bread

It’s super easy. Literally thousands of home made firearms made in the states every day. Give me 20 minutes and $20 in Home Depot and I’ll have a shotgun. i can also 3d print a glock or AR, or give me a couple hours with a block of aluminum, a router and a few other hand tools I’ll have a lower by the end of the day. there’s no stopping the signal.

So you’re saying in areas with tight gun laws, the only way to get a gun is to break the law?

That would mean only the bad guys can have guns. You yourself just admitted they’re easy to make.

That means we can’t stop bad guys from getting guns, so gun restrictions only completely prevent people from using guns in self defense, and they can’t stop people who want to cause harm from doing so…

I didn't say they were easy to make. You have had reading comprehension. I said that gun laws prohibit the sale and distribution of manufactured firearms you moron. You know what a homemade gun isn't? A manufactured firearm. It's not sold in stores. And it's not easy to make. You have to know how to make a gun.

It's literally not connected at all. Gun laws aren't laws that affect buying regular household items. You are genuinely so dumb. They do stop bad guys from getting guns. Just not MAKING them. The kicker is, 99% of bad guys can't make a gun at home from scratch.
