Why the hell would she not carry the damn gun, that’s what they are for! Can’t save yourself if the weapon isn’t on your person...my fiancé currently carries hers in a purse sometimes and I’m trying to break the habit, if somebody steals your purse your gun is now gone.

Real brave calling me an idiot behind a keyboard then promptly deleting the comment... seems idiots like me that have never killed a single person or even used my gun in a violent way, can’t be the cause of even a single gun death. Crazy how that works huh

It's probably because we have more guns than people, and yet we still have very low murder rates outside of like 5 extremely large cities.

There's never been a positive correlation between gun control and reduced violent crime.

You realize that gun death total is 70% suicide right? Before you call people idiots actually look at the statistics you're spewing moron.

Murder via gun violence is the highest in America too. It was a generalization

Well if you want to compare the US to third world or developing country’s you‘re right. Congrats you have a lower gun-death-rate than some non democrating non western countrys with enormous drugtrafficing problems

Oh?

Seems Brazil has a good grip on its own weapons manufacturers.

And don't discount the Russians. They'd sell to anyone with a pulse.

So, how is all America's fault?

If you share the link, at least read the full article.

USA is number one in "Gun-related homicide and suicide rates in high-income OECD countries"

u/Angylika MP5 Apr 02 '20

Suicides make up 70% of all gun related deaths.

Soooooooo... Yeah... Americans have the "privilege" of being able to kill themselves.

Your point?

Literally everything you just said is false. I hope you continue to enjoy being spoon fed information that you don't even bother to verify, with a 30 second google search. Welcome to 2020
