There is no US state where it is legal for non-citizens to vote. Prove me wrong. I dare you.

Of course.

No offense. We are talking about guns. Stay focused so we can make progress. Please?

@Russ1978 @WhysoRemix @greg39262 @BhattiLaib9960 Nope. UK is a much smaller country and has a very high violent crime rare. And even when guns are all but banned in the UK you still have gun deaths. You also have a lot of stabbings as well as group beatings.
English
@PWwoodcarver @Russ1978 @WhysoRemix @BhattiLaib9960 Agree to disagree. I get they are motivated, but I can't disregard a gun death to fit your argument. It's a loss of life and some people are still getting guns they shouldn't have. So We aren't getting anywhere. We're still doing talking points. Respectfully.
English
@Russ1978 @WhysoRemix @greg39262 @BhattiLaib9960 The average is 60% suicide and again you cant count those are they are self inflicted and taking away a tool has NEVER shown to stop someone from killing themselves.
English
If that's accurate, it's alarming. Where did you get that?
Rusty@Russ1978
@PWwoodcarver @WhysoRemix @greg39262 @BhattiLaib9960 around 40 gun deaths a year. USA has about 5 times the population as UK. so per capita that would be 200 gun deaths per year in UK compared to 50,000 in USA. i wonder why?

@greg39262 Part 3 being portrayed as victims of society so they receive a lighter sentence. If you watch the mews at all and I don’t encourage anyone to watch the news as its all propaganda you will notice a pattern on shootings. If the shooter is straight and white the news blasts. Cont.

Most Accurate Neutral Rewrite:
A more evidence-based version would be:
“A disproportionate share of serious gun violence is committed by repeat violent offenders. Some critics argue that sentencing reforms and reduced incarceration policies in certain jurisdictions may allow some chronic offenders to return to the streets more quickly. Supporters of those reforms argue they address racial disparities and excessive sentencing while focusing prison space on the most dangerous offenders.”
That version keeps the core factual elements while removing unsupported exaggeration and political framing.
No spin and no real answer.
Woodcarving Gearhead@PWwoodcarver
@greg39262 Part 2. Most criminal gun violence is committed but repeat violent offenders. The vast majority are given light sentences due to political reasons at state levels, often racial profiling of prison populations is taken into account. Another major factor is them. Continued…

We could turn that around and say both sides are too emotional about this. Both are lying and both are telling the truth. While we roll around on the ground like hot-headed teenagers, the 1 %, realistically ten percent, are laughing their asses off and keeping it going. That's why nothing gets fixed. We are distracted, the money men are happy, the power men are happy, the people are harmless. Win. Win. Win.

@greg39262 Common sense gun laws: most all “common sense gun laws have shown to be based on emotion and not proven effectiveness. They sound great on paper but they dont actually work in reality. Most all criminal gun violence is committed by people who can’t legally buy a gun. Part 1

Great! That's progress, but I remember no federal law. You seem pretty knowledgable, was there one? Because all states are not equal. No worries, I'm guilty too about the quotes.
Woodcarving Gearhead@PWwoodcarver
@greg39262 Sorry forgot about context again. Mental health problem diagnosed people have been prohibited from purchasing firearms for a long time.

According to Forbes:
What the data consistently shows:
Many large high-crime cities do have Democratic mayors or vote Democratic locally. However, many of those same cities are located inside Republican-led states.
When researchers compare states overall, Republican-led states generally have higher firearm death and homicide rates than Democratic-led states.
Examples from recent finalized data:
Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, Missouri, Tennessee, and Arkansas consistently rank among the highest firearm death-rate states.
Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Hawaii, and California tend to rank among the lowest firearm death-rate states.
Disagree. The statistics say gunshot suicide rates are very high. No, we're not playing that game. Death by a gun is death by a gun.
Woodcarving Gearhead@PWwoodcarver
@Russ1978 @WhysoRemix @greg39262 @BhattiLaib9960 You mean more deaths by people? Statistically 0.0059% of the American population dies from non self inflicted gun violence. Suicides must be removed because history tells us removing a tool does not stop someone from taking their life. So that is statistically ZERO…

@greg39262 Not trying to sound disrespectful but you sound very uninformed in the actual purchasing of a firearm in this country. Again not trying to be disrespectful.
English
When you make bad choices because your mind's not right, even the courts agree you're not exactly responsible for that. And no. You have preconceived notions and are being a generalist regarding my political alignment. I believe in a government big enough to serve its population, no more, no less. Everyone has a right to be heard and counted. Life is hard. For some inexorably so. But that's why they need support, not prisons or psych wards kept as medicated cattle.
Woodcarving Gearhead@PWwoodcarver
@greg39262 I do understand and list people the same way. Would I want them back? Of course. Do I think anyone should have had the authority over them in order to force them into medication, therapy or incarceration? Absolutely not. We all make choices and life is hard
English
I haven't bought one in years. Why do you say that? I have plenty. I don't use them anymore, I'm stuck in the city now. You know laws widely vary. My state rates gun friendly overall.

You forgot to quote. I'm in a lot of threads. Sorry. I do enjoy talking with you. Reminds me of the times my step dad would get on each other, argue a little, and then usually agree on some things. I dug that and he's gone now. Civil people are hard to find. Thinking people even harder.
English
@greg39262 So that already 100% exists in this country and has for decades.
English
@PWwoodcarver I said neither. I said KNOWN mental health case SHOULD NOT HAVE GUNS!! Please listen to what I say and not what you expect me to say? Please? Youn are really hung up on quotas and percentages. I am not. I look at problems. I don't bean count. Sound fair?
English
@greg39262 This concept of mental health evaluation is based on gun purchasing from your idea. So I will ask again. What number of deaths annually from a specific object should trigger a mental health evaluation to purchase?
English
I'm more concerned about this country right now because she's in trouble.
Woodcarving Gearhead@PWwoodcarver
@greg39262 Suicide is a first world privilege and if you have talked to people in 3rd world countries you know this. They dont have time to even consider killing themselves as they are too busy just trying to survive and raise a family. The world wide stats on this dont lie…
English
I totally agree. Another red meat issue they can use over and over to take our minds out of the game so they can do what they want.
Woodcarving Gearhead@PWwoodcarver
@greg39262 @BhattiLaib9960 There is no real difference between the democrats and republicans at a federal level. Neither will let gun laws be a thing of the past. As long as the progressives are in power I stand on Never.

Muhammadan sets up a stall in England telling British children they "deserved to be raped" for wearing shorts.

Many Americans believe we are witnessing the most corrupt and criminal Democratic Party in modern U.S. history.
Do you agree?
Yes or No?
