thats interesting....

I just ran across this which I found interesting as well

seems mental health is the issue here

The vast majority of gun deaths in the United State are completed suicides, according to the CDC. Nearly 23,000, or roughly 60 percent, of all gun deaths in the United States in 2016 were considered suicides, according to CDC data.

Ill bite. UK and France seem to have far less firearm related deaths.

The anti-gun folks love lumping in suicides in their gun death stats.

Or shitty parenting from the generation currently 40s - 60s. What a shite generation. Ruin marriage getting divorced every five seconds, not hard to imagine them fricking up their kids in the process.

It does not. What I've found, is that your eyes follow the laser dot instead of the intended target. Once you shoot once, that dot bounces up, and then you waste valuable time trying to find it again and put it back on target. Not to mention the fact that his hands will be shaking like crazy.


bingo.

novice shooters also tend to "point shoot" and not even use sights or look for a laser

Why is this?


Because they weren't founded on the backs of hunters and trappers, successfully rebelled against what they believed to be a tyrannical, oppressive government, and protected the right to bear arms into their founding governing documents?

There have always been a ton of firearms per capita in America. That pretty much means it's impossible to take them away.

You'll get downvotes to oblivion, but I'm not sure how someone could argue against the fact that gun access in this country is incredibly plentiful.

Just look.













Now tell me again how we have more access to guns now then in the past?

God, can you imagine? An America that was just Northern Europeans? It would be an absolute Utopia. Scandinavia on steroids. Some of the collectivist goals might even work.

He counts black people as liberal by default

That’s a really good deal on the anti-tank gun. I’d like to have a couple of those to mount on my watch tower
