Your data for the estimated number of gang members in the USA is wrong (you said it was 255), and so is the data for the UK (you said 42), and so is the data for the Czech republic (you said 28). If you plot these data you get an intercept of 0.24, a slope of 0.0304 and a r2 of 0.93, none of which is close to what you presented earlier.
Did living as the same sex cure all cisgendered mass shooter's depression, anti-social tendencies, or underlying fixations on violence? It's also quite possible that the stresses and tensions of how they lived (or their endogenous hormones) made their mental health worse.
In case you didn't notice, this thread turned into a debate about gun control by the time it reached the third page. The post I made about the shooting in Dayton was to another member 26 pages into what had become a gun control debate and was used to show how certain guns are part of the problem. To which you replied, "See, the police are the solution!" Which made no sense because even when police were on the scene when the shooting started, it still resulted in 9 people being killed and more than two dozen injured.
1) That is not true.
Its not about deciding that. Nearly every mass murderer has a mental illness. So keeping guns away from the mentally ill would be the thing.
Millions of Americans pose no risk at all for any reason. Yet we still have lots of gun deaths and it isnt stopping anyone from relying to limit their rights to a gun. What we do know is that the majority of these mass shootings or even self inflicted gun deaths are committed by those who have mental health problems and are often on drugs for the conditions. So, it we are really serious about this, limiting them from having guns will have prevented the majority of these shootings and will prevent a whole host of gun deaths.
I agree in principle. However, my point is that you have to somehow identify them. How do you propose we go about doing that? Obviously, we cannot rely upon a self-report check box on a firearm purchase form.
Twenty or so years ago it was publicized that ALL of the 'school shootings' were by a male under psyciatric drugs-care(misnomer)-on or recently stopped taking presciptions that were/are mind altering. i.e. a method never proven in truth or history to be healing; always shown to be harmful in more than just a couple ways.
Sad, but it is true. Compared to mentally ill and sexual deviants, healthy people are far less likely to shoot somone, let alone commit a big shooting of people event.
Why not bring that up? Big expose of groups of practicing sinful people may not help, because after all who cares, but better to warn families of honest people so they don't just continue trusting bad guys, eh ?
Did anyone in the world find a solution, anywhere, anytime ? Can the police or authorities even ever stop legal murder in hospitals and other protected medical protocols and clinics and agencies ?
Oh, yes if course you pull out incomplete statistical information. Its already been proven that the vast majority of assaults etc on trans people are done by their own LGBT community and not the rest of us or had NOTHING to do with them being trans.If that were true then why are they victimized so much more?
Transgender people over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime
williamsinstitute.law.ucla.eduTransgender people are over four times more likely than cisgender people to experience violent victimization, including rape, sexual assault, and aggravated or simple assault, according to a new study by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law. In addition, households with a transgender person had higher rates of property victimization than cisgender households.
A real tragedy is how they are treated by society.
The number of trans people who were murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017 and 2021, according to data released Tuesday by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety. Of the total victims, 73% were killed with a gun.Everytown's Transgender Homicide Tracker found that there was a 93% increase in tracked homicides of trans and gender-nonconforming people in the United States and Puerto Rico over the last four years. In 2021, 56 people were killed, compared to 29 reported deaths in 2017.Notably, while only 13% of the transgender community is estimated to be Black, according to UCLA School of Law's Williams Institute, Black trans women accounted for nearly three-quarters of the known victims.
That's obviously untrue:
The Epidemic of Violence Against the Transgender & Gender-Expansive…
The 2024 Reportreports.hrc.org
This report comes amidst an overwhelming wave of anti-transgender legislation. In 2023, for the first time in their 40+ year history, the Human Rights Campaign declared a National State of Emergency for LGBTQ+ Americans, in response to the over 550 anti-LGBTQ+ bills introduced into state houses across the country, more than 85 of which were passed into law. This trend continued into 2024, where over 500 additional anti-LGBTQ+ bills were introduced, and over 40 passed into law across 14 states.
So, how about we pass the Red Flag laws?

2000 years ago, The Messiah Savior Son of God , with ABBA YAHWEH, continued to verify God's Word,
This is not true, and even when a mass shooter has been found to be suffering from a mental illnes, the mental illness isn't always the primary driver.
Look at what God calls the primary driver in His Word. Such as "pernicious" , "death dealing", and "deceiving the whole world ".
Leftist tripe. There is no anti-transgender legislation and no anti-lgbtq legislation. The Human Rights Campaign is nothing more than a radical leftist organization who supports the transition of our children and the radical transgender ideology.
