Common Arguments For Gun Control Shot Down

Slavister said:
Yes, a nation filled with guns requires more armed guards. Not a surprise that police presence DOES turn away shooters.

And bombers and other such troublemakers too.
 
Slavister said:
Problem though with EVERYONE having guns (as opposed to police only) is that guns end up getting used MORE during brawls, fights, or in accidents. Including in theaters, bars, and clubs.

And the problem with only the police having guns is that then the government would have a monopoly on guns and that we don't want because that leads to a slave state.

If there were a law passed about you giving up your firearms, and if you did not give them up, that would just make you a criminal; not a law abiding citizen.

And the founders of the USA and all the people in George Washington's army were criminals according to the British.

Same could be said of any other place in the world that decided they've had enough and instituted sweeping gun control reforms

And other places in the world don't have the culture and history of the USA so they can't be compared with the USA.

Felons, the underage not supervised by an adult, and those deemed mentally ill by due process of law. Now who's on your list?

Yeah that list works. And we need much stricter gun control to keep guns out of their hands

Im asking you, who do you think shouldn't have guns? I wouldn't know who you think shouldn't have guns since I don't read your mind.

Felons, the mentally I'll and the untrained. Our system makes it easy for all those people to own guns

I agree with you about felons and the mentally ill but as for the untrained, just what level of training should a person have to be able to get guns and how would we enforce that standard?

You want the government to require citizens to purchase a service in order to exercise their rights?

Courts have ruled open carry is a right. So there should be no requirement to do so. CC is a different matter unresolved yet

The 9th ruled it a protected right. Those stated denying that right will end up in court, as they should
