You realize that one can enjoy shooting guns and even own guns while still having a nuanced position on control. Several of my close friends own guns and still support stricter gun laws. So many people die needlessly every year because republican senators prostitute themselves to the IRA. Mass shootings are now a normal event in our country. There was a mass shooting today.The "criminals will get them one way or another" argument is fucking stupid because that mostly refers to black on black violence. Mass shootings are perpetrated by incel Eliot Roger beta males or like some 50 year old CPA faggot like Stephen Paddock. They wouldn't have been able to obtain guns illegally. I mention these two specifically because both occurred in my community while I was living there at the time. So yes, I support stricter gun laws because I don't feel safe walking around on the street. Those are actually the alternatives. How delusional do you have to be to think this is some great freedom when in fact it basically creates a situation where you're just a meat target for the next white nationalist who goes postal because his sister gets BLACKED? You're no safer than someone in a "shit hole country" riding around on a camel waiting to get drone bombed and in fact you're so retarded from OD'ing on muh freedoms kool-aid that you're ideologically invested in maintaining this state of affairs.

This is only true if you define mass shootings a certain way. As you correctly mentioned, most gun violence is committed by blacks and latinos. Roger and Paddock are outliers, which is why they get so much attention. They are drowned in a sea of other "mass shooters" whose bodycounts are lower by virtue of poorer planning and impulsiveness alone. These types of "mass shootings" have been a "normal event in our country" for some time, far before the current push on gun control. No research has ever shown a link between gun ownership and gun homicide, the best you can find is a link to total gun deaths, which includes suicides and accidents. You feel unsafe because of predatory media coverage carefully constructed to make you feel unsafe in order to influence your opinion, not because there are too many guns.

Right, well, spree killers specifically, defined as those who commit a string of murders in quick succession, who are overwhelmingly white collar, suburban.
>These types of "mass shootings" have been a "normal event in our country" for some time, far before the current push on gun control.
Spree killers as I've defined them are certainly a recent phenomenon, or recently commonplace at any rate. To deny this is extremely disingenuous.
>You feel unsafe because of predatory media coverage carefully constructed to make you feel unsafe in order to influence your opinion, not because there are too many guns.
Lol..are you just going to ignore the part of my post where I said that I lived in Isla Vista *and* Las Vegas at the times of both shootings? But you're right, I'm probably just brainwashed by liberal media. Like I said, I don't want to repeal the second amendment, but I do think the screening process should be *much* more through. The post I was replying to was strawmanning anyone left of center as wanting to repeal the second amendment, or implying that there's some sort of contradiction between enjoying firearms and thinking it should be harder to get one. This type of reductive rhetoric is actually very damaging because it compels people to view the issue as black and white and "pick a side". It's actually how people justify the current situation to themselves (for example, genuinely convincing yourself that we don't have a problem on our hands, and are simply being manipulated by the media). It's an astonishing degree of mental gymnastics desu.

No, again, things only come out that way if you define it at an arbitrary limit (IIRC, its 4 or 5), where if you include just one below that limit, the demographics radically shift.
>Lol..are you just going to ignore the part of my post where I said that I lived in Isla Vista *and* Las Vegas at the times of both shootings?
And you think this matters? While that's a spooky coincidence, that's all it is. You are still far more likely to commit suicide with a gun than be murdered with one, by 5:1, and that's all gun murders. The idea that we have somehow become less safe because of these spree shooters is, again, a fabrication.
>This type of reductive rhetoric is actually very damaging because it compels people to view the issue as black and white and "pick a side".

>So many people die needlessly every year because republican senators prostitute themselves to the IRA.
Lots of nuance in this position, you disingenuous cunt.
>for example, genuinely convincing yourself that we don't have a problem on our hands
We most certainly have a problem, but the problem is not too many guns, the problem is people shooting people they shouldn't be. I know it's hard to think in terms beyond those a child can understand, but those two don't necessarily have to related. Our culture is deeply sick, and the availability of firearms has nothing to do with it, and restricting the ability of mentally well, upright citizens to own them is not the cure. But you don't care about that. You care about feeling good, and looking good to others.

Holy shit, I'm more likely to commit suicide with a gun after reading this post. The predictable deflection to mental health and "liberals only care about feelings & virtue signaling" strawman all in one simply epic post. Spree killers are not "sick" relative to others in the way that you mean. They are neoliberal social darwinists par excellence. They are the purest embodiment of American ideology, literalizing "survival of the fittest". I wonder why Japan has so few gun deaths. It must be the terrific mental health of the Japanese! I don't see any other explanation, as you've kindly enlightened me that there's no link whatsoever between ease of access to guns and gun related homicide. Not going to bother continuing this conversation as you've basically just essentialized me and trivialized what I'm saying by conflating me with some crude "latte liberal" stereotype.
