gun control policy works

I bet their culture is a big reason as well.

There are cities and states in America that have near zero murder rates as well. Some states like Maine have a 1 or 2 per 100k murder rate and have open carry.

So again, you can point to New Orleans but I raise you a Maine, North Dakota & New Hampshire where their gun laws are very unrestricted.

Then you have places like Maryland where their guns laws are super strict and have a 10 per 100, murder rate.

It's about the culture and existence of, ahem, ghettos.

I think the floor is higher in Europe because they essentially have a socialist system and fewer people are poor. I think its a lot harder to get rich, though, which sucks. I actually just moved over here last week. I'm paying 45% taxes.

45 motherfricking percent.

well there are 2 logistical points

1. it's much easier to control people and rights in small areas with limited entry points, which is not the US

2. it's much easier to control people and rights in areas that don't value liberty like the US does

BBC news reporting that one of the gunmen posed as a migrant.

Wrong. Remember the shooting at the restaurant? That was a gun. Someone inside may have interrupted the shooter.

we have a socialist system, too and our lower class just keeps taking, taking, and taking

look at how they destroy their schools and abused medicaid and ERs to completely disrupt the cost of our medical care

Muslims only hurting themselves. Bunch of idiots.

Now all migrants that really need help just got buttfricked. Rightfully so however.

Perhaps. I can point to other situations in the past where hell was unleashed and changed the minds of those that remained.

However this is a religion. Even then beating them back would most certainly make the world a safer place for a while. If you know history you know this muslim religion was already set back in the past. It does work.

add in sales tax, state income tax, and federal income tax, etc

you can't create a society where 45-50% of adults don't pay income taxes and get expensive benefits/tax refunds via EEIC/child credits without somebody paying for it

I think so, yes. Idk about rightfully ... they are trying to get away from ISIS. But it seems like only half the people were cool with them coming in the first place, and now half of those people are going to change their minds and say frick off.

So yea, they are about to get fricked. Austria is building a fence to deal with it. Those people gonna get stuck in the Balkans.

The worst part is that nothing we pay for in the US even works well. I'm sorry you work so hard for other people man. I'm just starting to get that and it sucks arse.
