as we see in our country the cities with the strictest gun control have the worst gun violence,,,europe with their " enlightened " thoughts and feelings have screwed themselves royally by letting all the muslim refugees into their country and on top of it all have banned guns altogether over the years,,so the safe society isn't so safe after all,,,idiocy at its best,,,we in America must remain vigilant and fight and resist gun control ,,,it simply does not work,,

I guess it depends on the circumstances of the place that control is applied, army was abolished here way back in the 1940's, and gun control is very strict, we don't have mass shootings nor we have a high index of aggressions involving a gun; most incidents where a gun is involved are between two drug gang members shooting each other (self pest control, lol). If gun laws where relaxed here, I bet there would be lots of violent incidents involving guns; interesting thing is that we have high numbers of deaths by traffic accidents, people over here drive like psychos, no need for guns to kill each other  Violence can be a cultural thing, pass by one generation to the other, it usually starts with a conflict (like war or government oppression) where normal people is forced to kill each to protect their life and/or freedom. For places where war and conflicts haven't been a major issue in it's history, seldom you see high index of gun violence. I've never had a gun on my hands in my whole life, nor do I know personally someone who ever had, for me having a gun is pointless, I would be on a higher risk of shooting myself or someone else by accident than being shot by an aggressor.  |

Like I said, it depends on the place and culture of people in that place, you get mass shootings and safer roads; we get no mass shootings, instead we get psychos on wheels. If I knew I had a good chance of being attacked with a gun, I would be packing one myself. |

To each his own. Given the choice of evading or returning fire, I will return fire.

very seldom do you hear of a legal owner or his/her gun being used for violence. Seems the illegal fire arm to be troublesome. The ones bought on the street. How many people that go through the background check, buy them legally then commit a crime?
