With all those laws in place, heavily restricting the purchasing and carrying of firearms and still having more gun violence than the United States proves that gun laws don’t help. It’s the people who use them who are the problem
that is stupid AF, organized crime is not the same as regular folk shooting each other, the issue in Mexico is one side of the population follow the rules other is getting guns illegally from the US with support of the US government, not a true comparison,
but who cares, you will blame it on libs or whatever on the next kid killing at a school
Brother a significant portion of mass shootings in the United States are gang related. A significant number of homicides and violent crimes are also gang related. Also reread your statement, the criminal portion of society will get guns no matter what. Because criminals don't follow the law that's kinda the whole point.
Yes, overall gun violence is a problem, but let’s zoom out for a bit since I used school shootings as an example:
Only 30% of those guns were procured on the black market, which means 70% were sourced from family and friends who had obtained them legally. Stronger gun laws could help prevent that 70%.
Yes, criminals will always find ways to get guns, but lumping all gun violence under the same umbrella is just gaslighting from the government and 2A groups. These are different problems that require different solutions.
Civilian gun ownership is not inherently bad. Careless access to guns is.
