What's sad is the lowest state rate is still abnormally high compared to other first world countries.
And unsubscribes since the P&N morons will eat this up.
On the other hand, my state has the lowest gun death rate in the country by far and some of the more restrictive gun laws. People here have a lot better things to do than play pretend soldier.

Gun violence isn't a big deal because when people are shot, we can think about what happened and then recite a "prayer".
Thoughts and Prayers fix everything.
Unfortunately, other states without common sense gun laws are still pretty close by.
How is this any different than when a Muslim terrorist uses a rental truck to run over pedistrians and bike riders, or when they blow up a subway or concert? All I hear after these events are calls for "thoughts and prayers".
What are the common sense gun laws that would have stopped the Las Vegas shooting or the more recent church shooting?
Honestly, the only common sense gun laws that I can think of to stop these mentally unbalanced (or conspiratory) shootings would be to ban and confiscate all semi-automatic rifles and pistols. Anything short of that and you're just discussing laws that wouldn't really affect the outcome of these shooting sprees.
Smart. And I hear they've taken the steps that they haven't in the USA, removing guns from the populace. Yeah, I like that. Can't feel safe anywhere in the USA. Bloody dumb, these Americans I tell you.mayne, if canada was warmer i would consider retiring there
but i am probably going to australia instead
They're not, really. It just the way it's conventionally shown. There's no reason Australia can't be represented as on top and the USA as upside down. Arguably, that's the way it should be....but they are upside down!
No, that is stupid. We should burn the 2nd Amendment, it's trash and should go on the trash heap of history like a lot of other stuff. You can't change the culture when it's built on idiotic notions.Lets ban all drugs and guns. After all, the drug problem is working out just nicely.
I think the ultimate problem is the psyche of society. Change the culture, not change the 2nd Amendment.
I think hordes of armed black ghetto youths wondering randomly though rural America killing thousands of locals a week would do it. Gun style assassinations of NRA members and Arms manufacturers and dealers would also be quite effective. Sadly, most gun killings are done by people who are quite insane so we can pretty well expect none of this will happen. I would pay, however, to see the latter as a movie with maybe Winona Ryder playing the Mother of an kid killed in a mass shooting.I don't think there's any hope for a solution in this country. I sometimes wonder what if there was a mass shooting every single week, would that do it? And sadly, I honestly think not.

And drugs are a different story from guns. Guns are killing machines. I kill you with a gun, you kill me, they kill them, they kill it... blah. Drugs, you take, it's you're trip, it affects you. It affects me if your drug addled self crashes into my car or whatever, but that's a different kettle of fish. That could be considered collateral damage, at least it's not the be all and end all of the business of guns, which is to kill.

whatever the case, at this point i'd rather live in a place where this problem didn't exist

The shooting of the congressman didn't even result in changes, it just fired up the "us vs. them" wiring in our anciently configured brains which is no longer useful in modern society.I think hordes of armed black ghetto youths wondering randomly though rural America killing thousands of locals a week would do it.

How about illegalizing all guns and creating jobs turning all of them into insulin injectors, charcoal lighters, and other fun things."Black people die. We need more jobs."
"White people die. Ban all guns."
This is the broken record being constantly played. Neither issue is so simple it's "ban guns" or "more jobs". Any simple resolution is a lie.
It's not, because everybody isn't doing the same thing.And how's that working out?
Great point Conner. Now tell us all how you would like to handle the abortion issue.Without getting too P&Ny, I'll just state that if policy makers really cared about gun violence they'd do something in Chicago.
But I digress. Lets ban all drugs and guns. After all, the drug problem is working out just nicely.

Nice movie and I am impressed with your imaginative development of the circumstances. Thanks for the images, seriously!I think hordes of armed black ghetto youths wondering randomly though rural America killing thousands of locals a week would do it.
