Yes, because it is so easy to retrieve the millions of guns across all of America.
I didn't say it was easy as they have different laws in each state.
Yes you can start though, they havent even tried.Quote:

The right to bear arms is a fundamental part of the American constitution, it would be very difficult to repeal, because there is extremely strong support on both sides of the argument when it comes to the banning of firearms. That's not to say I agree with the legality of guns in America, it's just not as simple as you make out!
the problem with the governemt is that i think they are scared themslves that is why they havnt taken action on the gun crime over them and other crimes lol
America isnt as bad as some of you are making it out to be. Sure there are crimes but what country doesnt have some? America does have alot of shootings but its pretty hard to control it all in a country as big as it is.
yer but maybe the thing is with america there police get in big large groups for no reason say if a car was speeding down the highway there wouldnt be like 5 traffic cars compared to us they'll have the whole force on that particlular pursuit instead of doing other things like investigating deaths that is why the crime there is so high its because there is to many officers getting involed in one area when they have got the equiment to do there job kk they'll need assistants the problem is that the police officers are not spread out through the departments and it is best to have two people in the patrol car instead of one especially in the USAQuote:

i've always been told that the us has a high crime rate. i fear at the thought of people having guns in their pockets while walking down the same street as me. however, to completely get rid of guns and banning them would be a difficult task, because somehow or someway, people will always get hold of them.
being in possession of a gun is illegal in singapore, as it is in many countries. well, many of you know about our strict laws. i doubt any locals here possess a gun, and foreigners certainly won't be allowed in with weapons.
In terms of density; there's probably just as many shootings in the UK as there is in the USA.
yer we sometimes dont actually no what goes on outside our doors aswell but i must admitt the american police are quiet ruff lol
Well they should of banned guns ages ago
well it wont get rid of them they will always be in the country its like our country they'll just keep smuggling them into the USA/UK and it also dosent help when there are gun shops everywhere.Quote:

You are an idiot.Quote:

The las vegas school shooting? Yea they should ban guns, but then people will be angry 'cuz the US wants human rights.
You get a free gun when you buy alcohol in Texas.
thats illegal in 49 of the 50 states.Quote:

You'd be scared to go out? Why?Quote:

Do you honestly think that just because the UK has banned guns.. that there aren't still people walking around with them..? No matter what happens on this Earth, guns will still exist.
This thread is honestly dumb imo.
Good point. If you're gunna be scared of guns, be scared of the rest of the world.Quote:
