Interesting how they go all the way up to the age of 19, to compile that data. 90% of the gangbanger shootings here in Detroit are aged 15-20. Seems a bit dishonest to add that age group in. I get it though, what ever it takes to gaslight, and shock the uninformed.
Actually they said at one time they included those up to 25 as children.
No? I'm not for getting rid of anything, including guns. I don't think it would even be realistically possible for such a large country to ever get rid of guns, and if we did, they'd be manufactured in secret or whatever.
I'm definitely for the regulation of the distribution of most or certain types of firearms. Gun control, if you will. I'm in favor of that. Denmark has had something like 3 mass shootings in 28 years. That's clearly a saner and more effective policy on guns than we have.
And guns are not banned there. They're just tightly regulated, and licenses are required for most of them. That's the way it should be. And that would not even be in conflict with the 2A.
Just like, how 90% of this stuff people claim these days about violations of their 1A rights, is not that. You can't yell fire in a crowded theater, and a private social media company can kick anyone off. This doesn't mean the 1A isn't still protecting the right to the freely expressed content of your speech. The government can't censor political dissidents like in China and Russia. That's what the 1A is and does.
The 2A says you can have an arm. That doesn't therefore mean that anyone can have any weapon at any time. Do you people want the craziest nut-job loonies out there to have anthrax and hydrogen bombs in their garage, and live next door to you? If not, then don't say you're not for regulation.
Do you think the Democrats care that thousands would die if they tried to confiscate all firearms or even just all semi autos? Many people would refuse and fight back.
Actually they said at one time they included those up to 25 as children.
Yes, that is one of the things that is rather disturbing of how much politicians lie to the people and yet, many people still accept the politicians as being right and out for our interests in saying we should not have guns.
Peaceful divorce is the only solution. Liberals can gather in their blue sanctuaries and live under their insane democratic policies. Conservatives can come together in their own areas and live free of blue lunacy. Democratic sanctuaries will ban all guns yet still have the overwhelming majority of shootings and rampant violence. Red areas will have all the guns and be clean, safe, and civilized.
The number one cause of death in CHILDREN........firearms
That statistic is false. It includes anyone under 20 as a child. It's a manufactured 'fact' created by redefining what a 'child' is without telling anyone.
In other words, it's a direct lie.
Now take this information and correct the people you got it from. You might also want to give them a piece of your mind for lying to you in order to manipulate your opinion on an important political issue. At least, that's what I'd do, but then I won't accept being lied to, regardless of the reason. Will you?
It says the right to bear arms shall not be infringed. If you tighten up regulation and licensing on AR-15's and that class of weapon, then that does not infringe on the right of the people to bear arms, as there are plenty of other types of arms available, other than that one. An arm means, a weapon.
