More lies. I shot someone, it cost far less than that and I only hired an attorney because I was being careful I was never charged nor arrested.

its unbelievable that someone who wants to argue gun control doesn't understand that. Its like wanting to join a football fantasy league and not knowing what NFL or QB or DT or TE refer to

I am an expert. federal judges have found that to be so. so said a former DEM party congressman. those studies have no relevance to the USA.

and stop the crap. You aren't a gun banner because you think it advances public safety

My late father was born in 26 so your claim has no validity. The fact is-gun banners almost never are honest about their motivations or goals

well I am not a Christian so that is a fail. Secondly, I have nothing but contempt for gun banners and see them as enemies of the constitution. And Twice I took an oath to defend the constitution. and there is nothing civilized about schemes that attempt to disarm good people and leave them defenseless when we have lots of scum bags in this society

Largest study to date finds powerful evidence that gun control actually works

As the US continues to stall on gun control talks, the largest study ever conducted on the topic has found a clear link between firearm regulation and fewer gun-related deaths around the world.
https://epirev.oxfordjournals.org/content/38/1/140.full

Until now, studies on gun laws have been limited to just one city or country, and have failed to reach consistent conclusions. But the new research took a broader view - the team reviewed 130 high-quality studies conducted in 10 countries over the past 60 years. And while they stopped short of saying they've conclusively proved that gun restrictions equal fewer deaths, the research provides pretty powerful evidence to suggest that it's the case……………
A huge international study of gun control finds strong evidence that it actually works - Vox

“……….. After analyzing all of these studies, the researchers came up with three conclusions:
1.It usually takes major legislation overhaul - not just one new law - to see significant change.
2.Restricting access to guns and their purchase is associated with reductions in firearm deaths.
3.Individual studies need to be better executed and planned in future to get more convincing results………..

“…………. But it showed that when countries pass several laws at once that worked together to overhaul the country's firearm code, gun-related deaths tended to decrease.

Santaella-Tenorio told Beauchamp that these overhauls generally included:
•Banning "weapons that are actually very powerful", for example, automatic weapons.
•Implementing background checks.
•"They all required permits and licenses for purchasing guns," Santaella-Tenorio told Vox.
A huge international study of gun control finds strong evidence that it actually works - Vox

For example, in South Africa in 2000, the Firearm Control Act contained all these measures, and saw a 13.6 percent reduction in firearm homicides every single year for the next five years.

Guns are responsible for more deaths per year than traffic accidents. But this study proves the number killed looking down the barrel of a gun can be reduced significantly by passing several - common sense - laws at once that worked together to overhaul the country's firearm code, gun-related deaths tended to decrease.
Such an initiative would not violate the 2nd Amendment right of gun ownership and go a long way to bring the “gun community” into better standing with the rest of society ……….
How could anyone be against reducing the number of Americans who die at the hands of a gun?

A just-released study, published in the February issue of Epidemiologic Reviews, seeks to resolve this problem. It systematically reviewed the evidence from around the world on gun laws and gun violence, looking to see if the best studies come to similar conclusions. It is the first such study to look at the international research in this way.

The authors are careful to note that their findings do not conclusively prove that gun restrictions reduce gun deaths. However, they did find a compelling trend whereby new restrictions on gun purchasing and ownership tended to be followed by a decline in gun deaths.

OMG they have discovered the holy grail by cherry picking. How unsurprising it would be if I said we reduce vehicle sales vehicle deaths will decrease.

The mind boggles at the blatant hypocrisy and fraud which even that cannot be proven. What if they had used deaths or crime......

Do you have a cite for the study you claim.


If so........how do you explain the yearly ever increasing gun related deaths; as the ever increasing gun sales over the same period.............

IN the past 12 years 406,000 have suffered death by gun........... and annually more folks die from gun violence than are killed in traffic accidents......
Death and guns in the USA - CNN.com

There is no justification for these deaths.....and to sit on ones hand saying no0thing can be done to reduce gun violence is irresponsible and insane.........

I am sure you and yours will never admit to the powerless you state to curb the violence.........

And may I suggest the reason so is the result of self serving selfishness .......and the total lack of empathy for your fellow man......
