      I think Australia would disagree.

      Australia is a flawed example because Australia doesn't have the 2A. The Australian PM at the time of Sandy Hook, I believe, wrote an op-ed stating he was glad Australia didn't have the 2A or the "assault weapons" ban wouldn't have been possible.

      The 2a is irrelevant here. The commenter said gun laws haven't reduced violence in any nation. That's factually incorrect.

      Since the 1950s/60s, the number of guns in America has increased and the rate of gun crimes has gone down. We have a duty to keep people safe from evil while also protecting the 2A rights of law-abiding citizens. This, just like health care, will not be solved overnight.

      <<Since the 1950s/60s, the number of guns in America has increased and the rate of gun crimes has gone down.>> Is that true? What's the data source? I'd assume that as the population rose (which it has), so would the number of gun crimes (or any crimes).

      FBI is the source. Care to prove them wrong?

      Not at all. But I'm not asking you where the data is from, I'm asking the candidate.

      Doesn't change the fact his statement was true.

      I know Mark very well, and I'm sure the statement is true. I just wanted to know where he got the data. Basic reporting.

      Since the 90s, we've seen a decrease in gun-related crimes and an increase in legal gun purchases. This isn't the full picture, but I figured this is a source that doesn't come from a pro-2A stance, in an attempt to be as honest and objective as possible.https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/02/14/most-americans-incorrectly-think-gun-homicides-have-gotten-worse-not-better/ …

          Thanks, Mark. I'm surprised by those statistics. Interesting stuff.
