Guns should be banned like here in Holland. That way more murderes will use knifes. That way the victim will be better abled to do something against the attacker ( hit him in the face or so)

My ass. We are surrounded on both sides by countries where guns are legal, there is no way in hell we could controll them. And unlike Holland, we actually have dangerous preditors we must protect ourselves from.

I work on a ranch, I have to kill wolves and rattlers. How many people do you know have died from animals? None? I know about 6. So, your idea of gun control fails.

wow the most dangers wild animals we have here are like gooses or swans, cuz they're birds, and birds are pretty strong, compared to wild mice or fish...

I seem to live in a whole other part of the world then you, so cant argue about your situation. I was just thinking: here they are banned and I have a good life with low-crime... so you know....

That is exactly why I hate when people from other countries attempt to judge Americans and the way we have things set up. You know nothing of the way we live, and what we have to deal with yet you instantly know WAY better than we do about how to run things.

And you think a lack of guns has to do with the low crime? More like your society, lack of huge numbers of immigrants, etc.

And look at JMJ's example, showing the town that did not ban guns had less crime than the one that did.

plus, we can never get rid of the illegal guns here. hell no. and a lot of other countries to.

the only way to really stop gun crimes is to have God destroy every gun on earth... don't see that happening.

i agree with the last two posts very good points... and yeah everything is different in different countries

I've been thinking about the pros and the cons of gun control. Should we allow guns to be sold to the general public, or should we ban firearms entirely from teh civillian populace?. Would it lead to a higher or lower crime incidence?.

that shit needs to get out of your head right now all you need for gun control is your pointer finger thats it as long as that member is off or on the trigger you are in controll of any fierarm thats all one needs
