Registration of a possession that many in government have voiced a desire to take away from you isn't a smart thing, just as leaving your front door unlocked at night and then advertising it isn't a smart thing--and for the same reason.
A ban on future purchases isn't a confiscation of currently-owned ones. Registration is what leads to confiscation.
I only addressed the proposal he/she made themselves.
With a pride flag? That’s so ridiculous. VP Vance is there to support the victims and their families.‘Tone-deaf’ protesters heckle Vance outside Minneapolis church shooting site
As Vice President JD Vance paid his respects to the victims of last week’s deadly mass shooting, protesters standing by a pride flag heckled him from across the street.www.foxnews.com
Meanwhile, there are completely tone deaf people supporters of transgenderism protesting the Vice President's visit in Minneapolis.
Exactly, so take guns away from the mentally ill and gang members. Murders/mass shootings would plummet.
Some of those protesting were family members of the victims.
I dont think so. Guns are so easy to get illegally that it wouldn't make a difference. Change that, and it would help.
After reading that article, the parents whom were quoted were the ones whom Vance listened to and spoke with at the hospital. The parents of the victims were not part of the protests supporting transgenderism.
This article is a little clearer.
If illegal guns are so easy to obtain, why are you for banning some. If you aee passing laws to make it illegal to have certain guns aren't you doing the same thing? Won't criminals just be able to obtain them anyway?
Like I have said, the tone deaf protesters were the ones pushing the transgender agenda. I did NOT say that all those protesters were doing that.
Is this what you did? What were your a priori reasoning for choosing those specific 12 countries? I just wanted to point out that the results are sensitive to what countries are included. Thus you need to explicitly argue for any inclusions/exlusions or test them all or test permutations of different 12 countries (if that number is important for you). If you do that I think you're going to realize that there obviously is other factors that impact homicide rates, and perhaps a more complex model is called for.
You're going to see what you want to see.
