I notice your post is just emotional venting, no specifics. What does "get rid of the fuckin guns" mean? What does that look like in real life? "Tighten gun laws", how, exactly? Change what policies?
Be specific. What you who advocate government-only ownership of guns never seem to do is provide specifics. Keep in mind our Constitution memorializes our God-given right to keep and bear arms. You socialist countries do not have that freedom.
I second that. This poster is just riding publicity for Steem. No substance.
Freedom of speech bro @jackshorebird lol I don't need your approval for my opinion. Or to provide you with the Substance you are seeking. Go read a newspaper? Lol
Yup true it's an emotionally charged post @mattmccauley. Not really intended to look at the specifics of why America has so many gun related deaths.
More to address these issues... GUNS KILL, AMERICA HAS A LOT OF GUNS IN CIRCULATION, THERE ARE A LOT OF GUN RELATED DEATHS IN AMERICA.
I don't really feel the need to dive into gun related death statistics in the US for it to be apparent that it's a big problem.
I also don't feel the need to dive into your policies on guns in America why? Because it's quite obvious that whatever the current situation is and whatever active laws/policies are in place in regards to firearms... Theyre not working.
For those who need evidence... Heres an interesting statistic.
6,787 Gun related incidents in the United States since January 1st 2018.

The American consistution was written in the context of that period(1787). "The right to bear arms" also implies criminals/corrupt cops/mentally insane have the right to bare arms?...correct me if I'm wrong please.
I don't advocate 'Government only ownership' of guns, neither does my country, only properly licenced and experienced people may own and hold guns.
