Really?

No other country has the unfettered access to guns that we do. No other country has the amount of gun related deaths that we do. No matter how you feel about guns & gun control at some point you at least have to concede there's a correlation. To deny this and cling to the notion that guns aren't the problem, people are the problem is disingenuous.

We've got to address both sides of the problem, but for the most part nobody addresses either. Until there is a serious discussion of the issues on the table, I guess we'll just keep seeing these almost weekly mass shootings. How can we be OK with that?

Are guns the problem or people not being convicted for the criminal use of guns the problem? There is no reason to punish the responsible owner because criminals are not going to follow laws.

If guns were actually the problem then those States with the strictest gun laws should have the least gun related crimes but the evidence is in contrast. More violent crimes are committed with "other" weapons, which includes kitchen knives, hammers, and #1 according to the FBI is baseball bats. If you want to ban all of those first then I guess I would be willing to discuss guns. Realizing this is ridiculous, maybe you will too; we need to educate people about guns and punish those who do bad things just like we would if you kill your neighbor with a hammer...

No other country has access like we do? Are you serious? Syria. They have better access than we do. Iraq? Full autos everywhere there too. Australia banned firearms and crime has gotten worse as it has in England. Our problem is the PC people who don't want to lock up those who are a danger both criminally and mentally. Quit trying to make law abiding citizens the scapegoats for criminals and mental cases.

Re: Guns

Pls consider the following, which instead of measuring murders per guns measures # of guns per murder.

Most stats deal with how many have been murdered by guns; mine deals with the # of guns _per murder_ & between #1 Taiwan & #7 (USA) how many guns per 100 people. Doing it this way, we find that little Taiwan & "peaceful" Holland are the murder capitals of the world.

Pls note the following, ranked: "Murders Per # of Guns" & #1 & #7, # of guns per 100 people:

1. Taiwan 1 Murder Per 5,664 Guns | 4.4 guns per 100 people
2. Netherlands 1 Murder Per 9,272 Guns
3. Germany 1 Murder Per 15,822 Guns
4. Italy 1 Murder Per 16,786 Guns
5. Ireland 1 Murder Per 17,142 Guns
6. Belgium 1 Murder Per 25,714 Guns
7. USA 1 Murder Per 29,521 Guns | 88 guns per 100 people
