So can we expect gun sales to go up again?

i buy this conspiracy theory more than the "guberment gonna take our guns!" Why? It's a lot simpler to let people kill themselves off and as you say create these situations to warrant a crackdown. If the NRA weren't part of it they would see the need for sensible gun control in order to prevent these conditions from occurring. Instead they fuel the fires of fear to increase gun sales to perpetuate the situation

I'm tired of gun advocates who hide being a badly interpreted amendment with their 2nd grade reading level ability as they scream in defense the right to bear arms after each one of these gun massacres. They are paranoid of their government, they are afraid of their neighbors, they are overly-defensive to any talk of gun regulation. The rest of the world sees them for the scared morons they are but because of our politics, the sane of us have to deal with their irrational fear and paranoia

bear arms, a. to carry weapons. b. to serve as a member of the military or of contending forces: His religious convictions kept him from bearing arms, but he served as an ambulance driver with the Red Cross.

And Norway is where one the worst gun massacres took place. Regardless there is little evidence to say that the presence of guns deters crime in the slightest. Look at the crime rate of the US. All our guns haven't stopped us from having some of the highest crime rates particular gun deaths amongst developed countries

lol! you go, johnny rambo! Too bad you weren't there because you would have stopped him. Listen, Captain Hindsight, everyone knows what to do and what they would have done after the fact but when something likes happens out of the blue, it's a different matter entirely. Panic and chaos sets in. The whole shooting took place in under 5 minutes

"bet you'll be wishing you had (a) gun when you are fighting for your life..." No, because I don't live in a fearful paranoid fantasy where I believe the government of my country is going to kill me for the hell of it or that hordes of criminals are going to break down my door to kill me. You resent my remarks? You embody them!

I don't know you from Adam. You could be legit, lying, or having been in the rear with the gear for all I know. From my own experience people who often say "Well if I had been there, I'd have done this-n-that!" are usually full of shit. Besides you could have easily been one of the first people shot before you realize it was not a prank as many thought it was at first

many mass shooters have been white - Columbine, Colorado, Wisconsin, Killen Texas, just to name a few

what I find funny is the gun-advocates who try to say things are dangerous in other countries which have gun control and yet they have never been there nor have they probably been outside of the country.

the old car argument again? No one deliberately killed anyone with a car
1
lol! You guys really are bad at this whole argument thing aren't you? Try to comprehend what I wrote - not many people get caught in the crossfire with machete and ice pick fights. And I seriously doubt machete violence would sky-rocket if guns were banned. Stop being silly, please

I did - "we wield bear arms I guess" What does that mean? You do know that the word is "bear" as in "to bear" not grizzly bears? I wrote "scream in defense the right to bear arms" not wield bear arms or whatever you think I wrote.

which european countries are those and how do their crime rates compare to the US?
1
rational? Most arguments I have seen from gun-advocates are typically illogical like the gun-car comparison, paranoid in believing the "guberment gonna send them to a FEMA death camp if they didn't have thir guns!", irrational in believing armed criminals will take over in a gunless society, and overly-defensive in that any incident like this there is a fear that Obama is going to ban guns when he has hardly done anything (unfortunately).

if you really were in combat you would know that what you wrote is ridiculous. Being in a warzone expecting attacks is different than being ambushed in a movie theater in your hometown.

pretty hard for one guy to commit mass murder with a knife or sword and it should be - "if guns hadn't been invented..."
1
seriously? That's your rebuttal? I would think the number of intentional deaths via cars is way way way lower than that of guns but this doesn't stop the inevitable lame gun-car comparison. Sorry but it's a weak argument

not many people get caught in the crossfire in a machete fight
