Just sayin...
When most if the countries ahead of the USA are developing countries, and every other western countries are lower then the USA based on every 100,000 people that tells you something. Gun control saves lives, no contest. Yes, I agree, guns are useful to defend yourself. But by making guns highly difficult to acquire, you make it harder and far more dangerous for criminals to have guns.
Cop in most other western countries sees guy with a gun, arrested. Cop in some states sees a guy with gun, does nothing until that gun is pulled and shot at someone.
If anything, there should be tighter regulation on guns then currently exists in the states.
Maybe I've lived a sheltered life, but a cop came into our class the other day, and all of us were floored by the fact that she carried a gun. I have seen a gun, maybe twice in my life. I've never met anyone who has been involved as a victim or a relative of a victim, with the SINGLE exception of an American who moved here. He had a relative in the states who was a victim of gun crime. Gun control saves lives its that simple
