They happen they just don't get the liberal press that shootings do.

I'm for much stronger gun laws. Maybe people need to get a shrink evaluation before they can purchase. But in my own family on my mom's side there is so much unlicensed weaponry that would appear on nobody's books or documentation that it would be asinine to expect anybody but law abiding citizens to turn their weapons in.
You can't confiscate weapons you don't know exist.
Straya c**t.
it works here criminals typically use weapons against criminals, guns still exist here, but gun crime is reduced, less guns (especially automatics that are only used for killing people ) out there the better, it minimises risk it makes sense, one of the best things Howard did.
Automatics ARE illegal here unless you undergo a very hard very lengthy process to acquire a license for them. Then I believe only certain people can get them. Armorers and museums and stuff like that.
If you mean semi-automatics no way jose that will ever pass in 'Merica and if it does America won't be America anymore. The best I ever see is that semi-auto longrifles are banned where the only longgun you can get are old style rifles and shotguns.
Maybe the banning of high capacity pistols and high capacity magazines though I think that's doubtful.
The best I ever see happening is that lawmakers make buying a weapon such a lengthy process that people will get frustrated and say f**k it and go with some other means of home defense. Eventually I think for semi-auto rifles everyone will adopt the California rules and have the magazines taken down to 8 or 5 rounds where if somebody saw someone walking down the street with a thirty round mag they know it would be illegal and could call the cops to intervene.
It'd take some Nazi Fascist motherf**ker to come into America and get rid of EVERY weapon. Which would break America and make it eat itself. Most Americans aren't afraid of criminals, they are afraid of big brother. For real. That's why there is such an outcry everytime the government starts talking about it. Its not so much people afraid of criminal uprising as it is that will be the last official step where 'Merica is not ruled by the people. No shit. I think if somebody came in and banned weapons there would be open revolt. It might be shortlived when people realize that the government has way more ways to kill them than they do the government but I have no doubts that it will happen.
Except liberals who are always down with big government as long as there is free shit to be given to them.
Politically moderate. No big government, no big corporations. f**k em both.
