        It’s like if you put more cars on the roads you’re going to increase the amount of accidents. It’s not hard to understand it would be the same for guns 🙈🙄

        Strange, Have you looked at data from Switzerland, I bet you (and the article) did not. also you forgot that the mass shooter was shot by a citizen with a gun . Also that the most gun crime in US are in cities were there are gun-free zones.

        These must be criminal lapses. Not just lapses.

        Lapses and lax gun laws allow for mass shootings to happen more and more. Ban guns already! Ban 2nd Amendment!

        If you don’t want crazy people getting guns just stop selling them to the public. It’s not hard to understand. Christ this is annoying. 😤

        Any BC loopholes are because the NRA wrote those laws.
