High school shooting in Parkland FL

[pocaracas]

Confiscation can get tricky, yes.
But I can envision that, just as some may evolve into unsustainable situations like you mentioned, many people will be conscientious enough to understand the risks and will give them up, willingly.... particularly, if a certain reasonable monetary value is exchanged for them.
Most of the time, cops wouldn't even be required.... but they are the best trained to handle it.

Trying to confiscate guns in the U.S. would cause an untold amount of mass shootings. If you cared about mass shootings at all. I for one, don't think 'from my cold dead hands' is a bluff.

Try reading some of what I wrote, instead of spewing hate towards statistics.
I'd advise to go into some of those links as well, but I understand that it can become too much.

I edited my post two seconds afterwards to acknowledge that, no reason to be a dick. It is a nonsense statistic though, or do you think gun deaths some sort of value? It doesn't tell you the murder rate of a country. I mean, I'm in favor of voluntary suicide, so in favor of some gun deaths and obviously against others. So the stat is nonsense when a cancer victim ending their own life and a murder of a child are both 'gun deaths ' I mean do some thought experiments with that stat and the murder/suicide/accident mix and you'll see that pretty quick.

Also try responding thoughtfully to my points,  not being a dick to feel smug. Also I agree with a lot of your other points, which is why I didn't respond to them. Just think gun deaths is a pointless stat.

Again, had you read what you quoted, you would have noticed that I based all that text around HOMICIDES.... the very same thing you want people to address: "murder rate".
That's why I told you to read it... and I see you failed to even do that.
