Drug trades are far less then black marketing weapons.

Do us all a favour please and stop pulling make-believe facts out of your ass.

According to UNODC, the illicit drug trade in the US is worth up to $143 billion per annum

Scholars estimate illegal arms transactions amount to over US$1 billion annually

The entire global illegal arms trade is worth a drop in the ocean compared to the illegal drug trade in the US alone.

That proposed criminalization is holding law abiding citizens responsible for the actions of law breakers.

You are ignoring the responses to your illegible arguments and repeating the same illegible arguments. This is irrational and it demonstrates that when your beliefs are refuted, you will simply try to push them through with brute force.

A person who does something which is against the law is not a law abiding citizen. I don't know how many times this needs to be explained to you, but apparently at least three. If I outlaw slavery, you are no longer a law abiding citizen if you have slaves in your shed. Understand?

You are equating lethal shooters with non lethal drug users. That's fallacious.

Lmao. You are the one being fallacious and you damned well know it. You literally claimed:-

something people do for fun (i.e. drugs) kills them at twice the rate of tools meant to kill

Drugs do not kill at twice the rate of guns. This is an inexcusably false claim and I explained why. Your continued efforts to flip your own dishonesty back at your accusers is tiresome, Amarel.

Drugs kill twice as many people as guns do.

Which is what you should have written in the first place. This is not the same claim, so you're only proving that what you wrote originally was untrue. As explained already, there are 32 million regular drug users in the United States. Around 0.3 percent of those end up dying annually because of drugs. Conversely, over 50 percent of people who were shot in 2021, died. To claim then, that drugs kill at twice the rate of guns is abhorrently stupid and false.

And going back to your earlier point about suicide, then the statistics show that merely owning a firearm increases a person's suicide risk by 300 percent!!!

You're in the army of brain damaged filth who hasn't the intellect to peoperly challenge the points raised in my argument

You never have any points and you never raise any arguments. You just ignore what other people write and spam the exact same pre-prepared bullshit any time your racist poppycock is called out for what it is.

You're future criminalizing law abiding citizens

Lol. What? If we make something illegal and you do it anyway, you're not a law abiding citizen. You're a criminal. That's how the law works you buffoon. That's how the law has always worked. Your ridiculous circular argument can be applied to any one of a hundred different examples to illustrate how stupid it is, including 18th century slave-owners. Oh noes! We can't make slavery illegal because that will "future criminalize law abiding citizens". Lol. Shut up.

Firstly, You're not suggesting a world wide ban on guns are you?

I'm not suggesting anything because this is your topic, not mine. Don't try to flip it back around at me.

Yes I am talking about the issues as they relate to America, and what might be done. There is literally nothing to be done about global gun and drug deaths.

Every single developed country which has placed restrictions on guns has witnessed a drop in gun crime so you're writing absolute nonsense which is directly contradicted by the facts.

if something people do for fun kills them at twice the rate of tools meant to kill

This is another lamentably false statement. 32 million people regularly use drugs in the United States and there were 100,000 OD deaths last year. Your apparent belief that 32 million people intentionally shot someone with the intent of killing them last year is preposterous and stupid. There are a lot more people taking drugs than shooting people with guns and this should be perfectly obvious to anybody with even half a functional brain cell.

If drugs are more lethal than guns, which seems to be -- bizarrely -- what you are implying, then why is the military armed with guns and not drugs?

It must be difficult being such a pathetically bitter alcoholic Nazi loser. To seethe with contempt every time a black person crosses your path in the grocery store.

Lol you're incorrect. The majority of gun deaths are from suicide

Firstly, I'm not incorrect. You're assuming the United States is the only country in the world, which is a common problem among Americans. Other countries see far more gun homicides than gun suicides.

Secondly, drug users take drugs to have a good time, not to kill themselves. Death is a by-product of drug use, not a first cause.

Thirdly, your post is a raging tu quoque fallacy, otherwise known as "whataboutism". It essentially suggests that, if gun deaths are bad, drug deaths are therefore good. Drugs and guns are two completely independent problems which you are trying to insincerely paste together for the purpose of creating a fallacious line of argument.

Given death tolls, why do we argue about gun deaths but not drug deaths?

Did you ever consider it might be because drug users take drugs of their own free will, whereas gunshot victims don't usually volunteer to get sprayed with bullets? The mass shooters on the news every day aren't bursting into classrooms forcing kids to smoke marijuana.

I mean, why stop there? Some people die from choking on chicken bones, so therefore everybody should have the means to murder half a city block tucked into their waistband, yes?

Stupid.

I would support a law that specifies a minimum age somewhere over 3

Yes, that's exactly what America needs. Pre-schoolers armed with rifles. Good call. I can see you're a smart one.
