Gun Laws in Canada to become stricter

[sah_24]

Remove the ghettos from those rates ... lol

"Research shows that countries with fewer guns have lower homicide rates. Even US states with fewer guns have fewer homicides; in a landmark 2002 study, analysis of data from 1988 to 1997 showed that states with “high” gun ownership had three times the rate of homicide than states with few guns. A decade later, a 2013 study found that every percentage point increase in gun ownership corresponded to a 0.9% higher risk of gun homicide. Countries and states that legally limit overall gun ownership simply have fewer gun deaths.

The United States stands out among countries for the frequency with which its mass shootings occur. But last year, after the US witnessed its most fatal mass shooting in history at Las Vegas, the Trump administration made it easier—not harder—for people with mental illness to buy guns. (That decision rolled back Obama-era restrictions that had been passed in the wake of Sandy Hook.)
Back in 1996, it took only 12 days after a mass shooting for Australia to pass the National Firearms Agreement, which banned automatic and semi-automatic weapon for “personal defense.” The country created a temporary buyback program for guns that had become illegal. Stricter background checks were enforced. As Zeif pointed out yesterday, there have been no school shootings in Australia since."

I understand there are a lot of words here but do your best.

Ive only looked at your misguided post (while drunk i might add) for approximately 10 seconds to notice you have posted a graph of firearm death rates...while you are trying to argue fireaarm homicide rates in the rest of your post.


And you, just like the UK, conveniently leave out suicide rates, which are a large part of those firearm death rates. And lets not forget about gang gun deaths....

Furthermore, you're trying to compare mass shooting rates, which no matter where you live, are are a ridiculously low percentage of the whole actual homicide rates in the given area.

When im sober and have less to do, ill come back to the rest of your post and discuss for example how in the UK you cant defend yourself worth a shit...but hey, lets splash some acid!

bump....been a few, still not sober

Been tempted to fall off wagon lately helping neighbor 4x a day while she dies of nasty cancer. I wont do it, hopefully after this long. Johnny called me and I told him I need some entertainment so he said he would take me to a tranny bar where his neighbor is a performer. Laughs would be good.

With a population of over 300 million people, the United States must kill a lot more than only 38,658 people last year from handguns.

How come only 611 people in Canada were killed by handguns last year?

Come on Canada, your not even trying.

Why do Canadians talk about how Canada is great and the USA sucks...yet when the rubber hits the road more Canadians move to the US than vice-versa, even though they are 10x smaller.

You would think it would be the other way around.
