Canadian homicide rate: 2.0 per 100k
White homicide rate in America: 2.5 per 100k
Black homicide rate in America: 18-19 per 100k

There’s a problem, but it’s not guns. Instead of simply saying “America” we could be specific and ask:

“Why is this problem almost exclusively in the black community”

And honestly I think we’d agree to an extent on the answers to that but it’s not “guns”

" I cannot dispute your facts, but I AM STILL SUPER SCARED OF GUNS!!!" - every gungrabber wannabe in this thread.

Lmao

Those that would trade Liberty for "security" deserve neither.

Thank God we got over a Billion guns in the hands of US civilians before the testosterone began falling by 1% annually 30 years ago, the birth control in public water supply got serious, and the chickens were pumped so full of female hormones that a 10lb bird now has bigger pectoral (breast) muscles than a 200lb man....the pussification of America is nearly complete. 21% of teenagers identify as gay. Each generation noticeably weaker and more effeminate than the last. They will have the numbers soon to start outlawing various types of guns....and it will snowball from there. Glad I will not be around when all thats left is an androgynous group of whiny pantywaists stabbing eachother in the back on social media. Damn degenerates.

Seems like you are the one who is scared. I don't need a gun to feel secure, clearly you do. Your insecurities are summed up perfectly in your post - afraid of everything and everyone. You are a dream-come-true case study for Freud. Damn dude, grow a pair.

A ban on assault rifles, for starters. Thanks for playing. Don't pretend that Dems don't have proposals/plans for tougher gun regulations.

“Assault rifles” are the least used rifle in mass shootings.

Yes the dems do have proposals/plans for tougher gun regulations, this is without question. They would happily enforce tougher laws on the law abiding while never doing a damn thing to address the problem.

Instead of arguing about who is scared you could try using data and logic, but it might not give the answer you want

We’re the only country that celebrates mental illness and promotes it. Take a look at the amount of prescription drugs prescribed for ADD, anxiety, bipolar, depression and so on in the US compared to other countries. It’s an industry by itself.

I’m curious too if our laws are more lenient towards schizophrenics than other countries. Idk the answer but there could be something to that. Are we more likely to release the mentally ill than other countries?

IDK but I’m positive we prescribe mental health drugs to people that don’t need them and the medication ****s them up.

Hey TN Ribs.

Lmao.

I dont carry a gun. Ever...because I don't hunt. Nor do I live in fear. There isn't a gun in my vehicle, and I do not even own a holster. I treat people with respect and kindness . I am pretty much the exact opposite of everything you said...which is par for the course for a liberal douchebag like you. When left with no other choice though...i admittedly do enjoy beating the sheit out of guys who need it. Its a character flaw, we all have them.

Instead of popping your ignorant leftist mouth off about a discarded psychological theory that isnt even taught anymore ( my son just became a clinical psychologist, working on his masters now) why dont you try to refute the FACTS that i posted?

Or you could just keep spouting ignorance like a liberal puss gungrabber. Seems I struck a nerve.

Could be. Id like to see the figures. What percentage of the total population per capita is on these drugs and in other countries and what percentage of mass killers were on these drugs. Not saying you're wrong by any means but those numbers would be interesting.

I'm not interested in the homicide rate in inner cities. I'm talking exclusively about mass shootings.

I’m talking about in our country as a whole, not just in “inner cities”. As a whole the black homicide rate is about 8-10x that of the white rate. The white rate is on par with Canada.

If mass shootings are so common, why is the white rate so low?

We have a problem for sure. It’s not guns though. The data shows that

Yeah I know. Your second amendment rights are absolute and without caveat, and definitely more important than people’s right to go bowling without getting murdered.

NRA gives to only one party and that party fights to ensure there are no measures that would lead to them selling less guns. It’s really a simple transaction. I know you say you don’t like them but they’re very influential and you’ve obviously read some of their literature. Do they not go far enough? You more of a Gunz-4-Totz guy? 😂

Good Lord..... Not everyone is a ter totaler like you.

I am not a fan of the NRA. I despise all lobbying groups for reasons I've already laid out.

I'm for sensible reform but most importantly I'm for enforcing actual laws already on the books...... Which we aren't.

Get over yourself stooge, for every political football the right champions there is one on the left and both sides pretend like they care but it only serves to enrich themselves and gin up people like you to do their work and provide cover so they can make more money.

The problem is it’s hard to distinguish between the two.

Did crazy people do crazy things because they’re crazy or did they do crazy things because of the meds they’re on. Without a study of treated vs untreated mentally ill people showing violent crime rate, it would be really hard to say

I know China has little gun crime. Israel makes them store their guns in a government locker where you have to check them out.

"If mass shootings are so common"

You're really going to try and argue mass shootings are uncommon in America?

I wish a man would say some of the stupid sheit these liberals say to folks in here to me in real life. I am not Billy Badazz. Never have been. I am an old fashioned, lifetime construction worker who actually gets off my ass and works out 4 days a week though...so i dont look like you dumpy, weak, breathless , helpless, feckless bitchmade limpwristed loudmouthed cowards that get on anonymous message boards and run their mouths to people KNOWING FOR DAMN SURE that you would NEVER ever under any circumstances whatsoever run that decksucker in person to ANY man on EARTH....much less one like me that enjoys knocking teeth out and never minded the occasional azzwhipping i took in return. Never. Ever. Ever.

If I so much as glared at your bitchazz you'd have your eyeballs locked so severely on your shoelaces that you'd have no IDEA who was coming or going. Because those are the only people that run their mouths on the internet to other men. The ones who could NEVER under any circumstances run that trap in real life....because they know they'd get a mudhole stomped in their azzes. The kind of men that beat on women. Or worse...try to and get their azzes beat. I hope we all get togetherE3 for a VNPF ballgame 1 day and maybe, just maybe I get a chance to catch up to 1 of the very few ignorant little beta pusses that want to make things personal with me. We both know that'll never happen though. No way you would ever actually show up you little cuck.

Why is the white homicide rate on with that of Canada? Shouldn’t it be 2-3x as high if these are very common? Or are they primarily occurring in the black community?

If the problem is “the guns” why are the guns only a problem in the black community despite lower legal access to guns because of higher felony rates?

How does 13% of America commit the majority of homicides and you see the problem as “the guns”?

None of that makes any sense to me

Like it said this discussion is about mass shootings not homicide rates among races. Everyone knows gangs exist and are prevalent in certain areas and the majority of those in gangs are black. I'm talking specifically about mass killers, which are overwhelmingly white males.

Mass shootings by shooter’s race in the U.S. 2023 | Statista

Between 1982 and December 2023, 80 out of the 149 mass shootings in the United States were carried out by White shooters.
