quote:Banning guns made gun deaths go down. It also tripled their rape rate, twice as likely to be raped in the Uk vs the US. It nearly quadrupled their theft rate, twice as likely to be robbed in the UK vs the US. It also nearly doubled their car theft rate, 35% more likely to have your car stolen in the UK vs the US. With the societal dealings we have in the US, just imagine how high we could climb with our numbers if there was no fear of someone having a weapon to defend themselves stateside!!!
Whatever England did worked.

I don't know if this has been posted, but there is video of Hale shooting her way into the building and moving around.
LINK
It looks like no one is around on the floor where she enters. I wonder if they heard her shoot the glass doors of the building.

when I was in high school, I would estimate that up to 1/2 of the male students had some type of firearm in their car during hunting season.
it didn't even occur to us to use them on other kids.
what changed in the 90's? when did universities start openly mocking Christianity and pushing their anti-Christian views on students?
we need a value system. not oppressive laws on law abiding citizens.

you don't understand the how and why the Constitution was drafted.
This is the biggest issue for gun control progressives. They think that because basic rifles and muskets were the gun of choice when the Constitution was drafted that the purpose of the 2nd Amendment was to ensure people could own those specifics guns. They don't understand and/or don't want to acknowledge that the purpose of that Amendment, as well as most of the bill of rights, was created to prevent tyranny by the government, you know because we were waging our independence against a tyrannical government (Great Britain) and wanted to create check and balances in our newly formed government here. The 2nd Amendment was part of that. Its intention was to ensure people had the means of protecting themselves in the event the government imposed militaristic tyranny over the populace. Advances in artillary technology has obviously advanced since the Bill of Rights was drafted over 200 years ago, so naturally the types of firearms a citizen may need to ensure those same protections will advance as well. Whenever I hear arguments about hunting capabilities, I just roll my eyes. The 2nd Amendment wasn't drafted to protect rights to hunt animals nor was it created to protect your home against a criminal intruder. It was created as a check on the GOVERNMENT. Just like the entire fricking Bill of Rights.

I'm sure you can figure the rest out. Guns were never a problem in the UK, and in fact were not the tool of choice for mass casualties. And they're still happening, despite guns being banned, at increasing frequency.

But Chicago has a different issue than the mass shooting issue.
Define mass shooting. Because gun control advocates change that narrative depending on the argument. If they want to use fear tactics to show how many mass shootings there are, they'll cite any incident where 2 or more people are shot. If they want to address school shootings (and the like) in particular, they leave out street violence in because they don't want to be accused of marginalizing a minority group. There's absolutely no consistency in their arguments.
A big step in the right direction would be to actually impose strict sentences for those convicted of crimes committed with firearms as well as judges and district attorneys not repeatedly reducing bonds to bare minimums for those charged with violent felonies. You keep violent offenders off the streets, you prevent countless tragic events from ever happening. But they won't do that because it's not politically advantageous for them. They're every bit as much or more to blame for why so many violent crimes continue to happen every single day in our major cities. If they ever choose to enforce the laws, enforce sentencing guidelines, and impose bond amounts consistent with ensuring public safety, our firearm casualty rate plummets nationwide.
