Three times I've made myself perfectly clear. Three times you've shown that you're either too stupid to understand or in denial. If you don't have the ability to comprehend a clearly made point, I'm afraid that's not my fucking problem.

"Do you honestly think that if criminals did not have guns they would stop being criminals?"

Did I claim that? Having the same number as criminals but without guns is a win in my books, buddy.

"Criminals would love knowing a home has no guns"

Present evidence that living in a country with hundreds of millions of guns such as yours will make you less likely to be robbed than in a country with no guns.

I realise that since you love guns so much you'd rather be robbed by a man with a gun than a man with a knife, but I'd beg to differ.

You say: "Countries who take less immigrants and have less gang activity have less gun deaths."

Obviously, where there is more gang activity, there is more gun violence. I was referring to the other part of that claim, that countries with more immigrants have more gun deaths. You haven't provided a shred of evidence to support that, and your insistence on dodging to rebuke a point I didn't make shows how clueless you are.

The focus of that post was the immigration point, but once again, can you refrain from repeating the same point when I've rebuked it now 3 times. The primary reason that alcohol exists is to give people pleasure. The primary reason that guns exist is to kill people, and they're extremely effective at doing so. That's the difference.

"Here's a newsflash for you. If it were not for NATO nations, Ireland would be communist if there was anything the Communists wanted."

I have no idea what you're on about here. Are you referring to the Cold War? If so, I'm not sure you realise where Ireland is. We were too busy facilitating priest rape during that time.

"So in all of your deception, tell us why lowering the speed limit would be an overall negative effect on society."

Well, in many places, yes, it does make sense to lower the speed limit if it's considered too high. You were asking why I don't support lowering the speed limit to 35 across the country. I don't know, because it would take loner to get to places?

This is just a variation on the classic gambit of "well cars kill people, axes kill people, but you don't want to ban those". You're missing the point, axes and cars do not primarily exist for inflicting fatal wounds on people. Guns do.

Yeah, there are plenty of examples when " a home owner shot an intruder in his house and saved his family from harm", but generally the extent of that harm would have been that the intruder has a gun of their own. If neither of them had guns to begin with, wouldn't that reduce the risk of the situation altogether?

I thought the exact same thing when Chris Jericho started wearing GOAT on his trunks. It was incredibly confusing until I looked it up.

Fact: Where there are more guns there is more gun-related violence, how you can make a correlation to immigration is beyond me.

Australia:

Immigrants as a proportion of entire population: 27.7%

Gun deaths per 100,000 per year: 0.93

USA:

Immigrants as a proportion of entire population: 14.3%

Gun deaths per 100,000 per year: 10.54

The difference between guns and alcohol, cars etc. is that guns are specifically made to kill, and are extremely effective at doing it. Obviously, there are plenty of laws that could be introduced to "save lives" that aren't, because, although lives would be saved by mandating ~a maximum of 35 miles per hour speed limit on all roads~, it would have an overall negative effect on society. Tightening gun regulations? Not so much.

I will never understand the freakish obsession that Americans have with guns. It's insane. Here in Ireland, not only is it impossible to buy a gun (unless you're a farmer, then you need a shotgun for animals), but even our police force aren't armed, which leads to a much more peaceful and less-violent atmosphere in the country overall.

Progressives aren't chasing the "Russian Ghost", the DEMOCRATIC PARTY is, huge difference. Real progressive Liberals are fighting for universal healthcare, the Paris Climate Deal, ending overseas interventions and other issues that actually effect the American people. The DNC focus on the "Russia scandal" so that they won't have to deal with the actual important issues.
