My point stands. To the various posters pointing to inadequate mental health care and police follow-up to reports, you think that the Netherlands or Australia has significantly better mental health support or police activity? Highly doubtful. And yet people with mental health issues in these counties don’t go on mass shooting rampages because they simply can’t get a gun.
@Ubiquitin’s explanation regarding the individual vs. the collective actually makes the most sense to me, although why anyone would choose to live in a country that doesn’t care about them blows my mind (particularly as it is so opposed to Jewish societal values).
As for the poster who said banning guns wouldn’t stop criminals getting them…have a look at how the UK removed ALL guns from the streets post Dunblane. It is absolutely possible.
Fundamentally, do you all really think that the citizens of every other Western country aren’t really “free” because they can’t own guns? If so, that’s a heck of a position to defend. If not, why on earth keep your guns?
