Question: What to Australia and England have in common Answer: The are surrounded by water, making importing of unwanted firearms easier to control than most countries can claim. Never-the-less, below is a chart of the worst ten countries in the industrialized western world as far as lives lost per million population to mass shootings from 2008 through 2013. There, you can see, that the U.S. is sort of middle of the pack, and that is with relatively relaxed gun control than is typical of the other countries in the chart. Emergency room physicians are far more dangerous, lol. Also, for what it is worth, the areas where mass shootings tend to occur in the U.S. are the areas where gun ownership is most restricted.

I would like to say that I am offended that "crazy" and "gun lovers" are used in the same sentence. I grew up in a family of gun lovers. We always had guns. I myself even shot guns. But none of us ever shot and kill anyone. So think about what you saying before labeling all if us "gun lovers" as crazy. After all, us "gun lovers" maybe the ones saving your butts someday.

Put all you progressives in two places where they will leave us alone to be free... if it weren't for the progressives stirring up the crazies, there wouldn't be any trouble. You can have what you want for dinner for I won't be there..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That shootings are increasing. The more media attention that is given to shootings, the greater are the chances of copy-cat shootings. These shootings also show that no one is bothering to focus on the mental and spiritual health of students. The focus is always on the externals -- sports first, and academics second. The prevalence of iphones and instant communications is exacerbating the issues. And to claim that everything is the same as in earlier years is to hide one's head in the sand.

Mass murders are one thing, but being that they are really so very rare, most people are probably more concerned about more normal, less sensational murders, How does the U.S. as the gun capitol of the world, compare on murder rate with other countries, and for that matter how do U.S. cities with tight gun control laws, compare with U.S. cities with relaxed gun control laws? It would shock some people to learn, than many U.S. cities have enough guns, that every man, woman and child could be supplied with a gun, with plenty of guns left over. Is the concept of "more guns=more murder" true? Although this video I am linking to does not go into such fact as: More people are murdered with hammers than with guns, it does examine pretty completely, the correlation between gun ownership rate and murder rate. Interesting stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
