Default If Democrats really wanted to lower gun murder rates

If democrats really wanted to reduce gun murder rates why not adopt laws similar to the two states with the lowest rates?

Vermont and Maine are more than 50% less than the USA average.

Take a look at the “diversity rates” in those two states. It says a lot about why their gun violence rates are so low.

This just in. Murder is illegal. How's that working out? More laws on top of this one, are just political statements.

Yeah, 160 murders in Jacksonville last year, almost all blacks killed by blacks, most involved drugs or gangs. Clearly racist.

Probably 99% of murder is libs killing libs. Sounds like a win-win to me. One goes in the ground and the other goes behind bars. We should encourage them.

You’re probably right on the Lib vs Lib murder rate. Win - win? They’re still trying to change gun laws. In other words, that logic isn’t exactly working.

They will never stop trying and we can't prevent that. More than likely they will just have to learn the hard way why holding innocent people accountable for the actions of others is a really bad idea.

The dems are in the process of creating laws to ensure they never lose another "election". It is their top priority and as in the last election, votes will no longer matter.

Did you ever in your life imagine things would get this far? I'm going to guess perhaps you didn't. And if that's the case - what makes you think it won't just keep going? You could argue people will finally reach a point where they'll draw a line in the sand but I don't see that happening either. Need proof? Corona.

I wouldn't totally bet against a significant pushback if things go too far. I don't know what constitutes crossing the line, and we may not know until it happens. I don't even know if it will happen in my lifetime. But I don't know that we as a society are immune from Civil War II.

It Was inevitable. People have done this countless times over the past 5,000 years and never seem to learn from their mistakes.
