  2.  @anselanokayan9978  Top ten most violent crime-ridden states in the country: Alaska, New Mexico, Tennessee, Arkansas, Nevada, Louisiana, Alabama, Missouri, South Carolina and Arizona. The Lone Star State ranked 11th on the list of most dangerous states, with 391.1 crimes per 100,000 people

  3. Many third world countries are much safer than the US. No stray bullets there

  4. If more firearms made us safer, then Texas should've been the safest place in the world. Remember about the liquor store clerk who died following a shootout during an armed robbery in Visalia on June 11, 2023

  5.  @rubytuesday9319  Violent criminals stole legal weapons from pawnshops/ [chuting] range/ stores/ the owners and some of them bought it from unlicensed makers. Extreme accessibility of firearms in the US is a double-edged sword and it's like a chicken & egg situation, because weapon thefts are rampant

  6.  @rubytuesday9319  Once firearms and ammo become illegal, the price of the black-market ones will skyrocket. This will make average criminals unable to afford them and not to mention the ones who have no clue where to buy them. Look how the stricter regulations have been working well in other developed countries for many decades

  7.  @rubytuesday9319  Violent criminals in other developed countries could hardly get illegal weapons because there is almost no legal weapons to steal and look how their authorities have been dealing with it for many decades. The US isn't a unique case

  8. Yet no good guy used his or her firearm to take the bad guy down, even though it happened in an armed neighborhood. Violent criminals stole legal weapons from pawnshops/ [chuting] range/ stores/ the owners and some of them bought it from unlicensed makers.

  9. At the beginning of the pandemic, Governor Greg Abbott signed HB1927 into law, allowing license holders the freedom to wear their weapons unconcealed. People were afraid and he capitalized on that fear. Firearm sales grew exponentially as did the fear within average citizens. People who wouldn't dream of owning weapons went out and bought "personal protection". The NRA and SCCA got rich overnight. During the lockdown, Greg Abbott signed a law that classified firearm stores as "essential businesses" thus, allowing the panic buying of weapons to continue unimpeded Now that the population is saturated with firearms, access has become easier than ever. Buying a used firearm or acquiring one from the black market is practically effortless. Stealing them is just as easy Fast forward three years. Violent crimes involving a firearm are a daily, commonplace occurrence. It's not just Houston or Texas. Many of those firearms have crossed state lines. America is at war with itself and people are dying every day as a result
