You can understand the difference between a gun that fires one bullet with each pull of the trigger versus a rifle that sprays billets with one pull of the trigger.
A distinction without a difference.
All guns are scary and evil.

Without guns, violence would cease and world peace would ensue.

Good plan.

Good plan.
A law abiding owner is 43 times more likely to have his guns used against him than to use it in self defense

300 million guns are not going anywhere in anyones lifetime that is on earth today.
2a supporters are not selling their guns in any buyback program.

Create any void here in the US and Mexico will gladly black market them to this country. Cant stop the drug flow and wont stop gun flow.

Fewer guns for sale means fewer guns for the gangs.
Just to educate you a little more.... Gun show dealers require background checks. The so called gunshow "loophole" is the transfer of firearms between private parties which requires no background check. Often private parties sell each other guns outside the gunshows. You can't stop that without first requiring everyone in the US to register their firearms in a central database. Good luck with that. You be the first to go to southside Chicago and tell the bangers they need to register their illegal guns.

See how much you've learned tonight.

Actually, the majority of guns in the Mexican drug wars are from gun stores in America.

End the gun culture here, and we'll save lives in two countries.

That's true because I challenged him to post even one instance where someones gun was taken from them and used against them. However I posted multiple story links of successful self defense encounters.

Guns will come from Mexico if there is a market for them here. Just like drugs.
