GunCite-Gun Control-International Homicide Comparisons
Guns are not the source of violence, as said they are a tool. By themselves they commit no act, the act is by the weilder not the weapon. Without a gun they will commit the act with another weapon, although more difficult it will have the same end value. I could jam a pencil in your neck or hit you over the head with a frickin' chair. Will that make you any less dead? Will you ban pencils and chairs?
Gun crime increases in countries that have strict gunlaws because it disarms the citizens while crimnals continue arming themselves. What we need is stricter background checks, and make it federal law enforcing background checks, some states still have VERY loose gun laws.
