minus-squareSaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up15arrow-down2·edit-22 days ago I’m sure these new laws will work as well as the last ones. Australia gun deaths: 0.90 per 100,000 people US Gun deaths: 13.7 per 100,000 people. Canada Gun deaths: 0.78 per 100,000 people.

minus-squareFaceDeer@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up13arrow-down1·2 days agoAre you suggesting that gun control laws cause arson? Like, I want to rob some guy but I don’t have a gun, guess I’ll set him on fire?

minus-squaretheyoyomaster@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·19 hours agoCool, so only criminals who are slightly dedicated to breaking the law get guns and no one else. Got it.
