  1. Travel back in time and prevent the Chinese from inventing gunpowder. Cat's out of the bag, can't uninvent a tube-launched projectile.

  2. You can't tell if a gun is automatic by looking at it, but automatic guns are extremely rare. Most crime is committed with handguns.

  3. The cameras are already everywhere. Not saying I like it, but this system is hardly the devil when we're already filmed on almost every building we enter.

  4.  @Benamatic  the problem is that those friends will be probably be shot in the street or in a private residence. This system applies to public places like schools, courthouses, etc where the shooter already planned to strike and can just bring his weapon inside a bag.

  5. Then you never left the house?

  6. Mental health checks are a sham. The UK actually looked into it and decided it wouldn't work. Think about it - one of the countries that passed some of the most knee-jerk gun legislation in the world actually looked at mental checks from an objective standpoint and thought it would be wasteful and of very little use.

  7. You wouldn't need it in the US either, tbh.

  8. Because people having rights isn't a matter of "allowing". You don't ask the government to allow you to breathe, you don't ask the government to allow you to defend yourself. The government isn't everyone's paternal figure.

  9. The problem is that you could use that to trap people. Bring a gun and pull it out to trigger the lockdown, then start throwing incendiary devices. Sounds far fetched, but Australia had a few "mass arson" events where a mass killer used fire in the 2000s.

  10. As an European, you have no idea what freedom is. Banning guns is never reasonable.

  11. That's not true. Youtuber The Chopping Block did extensive testing to find which videos would get demonetized and mentioning guns, shooting guns, etc would trigger the algorithm. Even his intro, which includes a gunshot sound and a 3d model of a bullet flying, would trigger the algorithm.

  12. Well good thing those were restricted in 1934 and banned in 1986.

  13. It doesn't work. It seems to work but only if you look at safe countries. Look at unsafe countries and gun control doesn't work. Maybe if we took a few Cartels from Mexico and put them in Munich and took a few favela gangs from Rio and put them in Berlin you'd see gun violence skyrocket.

  14. The USA shares way more with South American countries. And Brazilian and Mexican gun laws are stricter than most European countries.

  15. Okay yeah but... how do you prevent someone bent on causing harm from going through with his plan?

  16. So glad you're not living in a free country either, tired of all the people bitching.

  17. Schools are already filmed with cameras and they mostly operate like prisons anyway.

  18. That's cute, you think you won't be affected by gun control.

  19. "constitution nut" as if caring about your rights is deserving of insult

  20. Worry about yourself.

  21. I will forever dunk of people who claim the Serpa is a good quality holster.

  22.  @845835  well, it's a closed system that cannot be user serviceable, there's no way to perform maintenance so you'll only know it's gonna fail after it fails. The lock is prone to get jammed with little rocks if you have to fall or get tackled onto the ground. But the worst part is that Blackhawk should have revised the latch, if the shooter goes for the draw and applies pressure the wrong way the gun will lock itself. The way to get it out is ease up and operate the latch again but under stress people will simply press harder on the latch in an angle that will jam their finger inside the trigger guard when the gun pops out. There's a hilarious video where G&A has a promo for Serpa holsters where two shills say the design is perfectly safe but when they show the draw one of the guys nearly shoots himself in the thigh because his finger slammed into the trigger guard after the draw. Within context, it's a product of its time and for years was the option for many people but as time went on Blackhawk should have modernized the design rather than refusing to admit the product could be better. Obviously this topic causes huge arguments online to I referenced it when you mentioned arguments about holsters.

  23. How did you determine few people need them? How did you determine one is enough? "balistic searches" - actually CSI lied to you. It's a complete crapshoot to use ballistics to track guns. "I would even include fingerprinting every citizen or at least gun owners" - why? First of all, that's really invasive. Second, fingerprinting analysis is extremely weak. Remember that after the Madrid bombings an American was arrested because his fingerprint was on a bomb? He was innocent but his fingerprints were so similar that the person doing the analysis botched the job and considered them a match.

  24.  @adrianpintea9675  Q1. Not only do I dot care about what other people need, especially those who live on the other side of the world, I do think gun rights are universal. We have the right to be innocent until prove guilty, not have our property searched or seized without warrant, and we have the right to live our lives the way we see fit. So if I have a gun and harm nobody, I committed no crime and trying to prosecute me is an attempt to consider me guilty for a crime I haven't committed. Guns are necessary for protection even if others don't have them. Sometimes criminals are stronger, or may have baseball bats. Bad people can kill me in an instant even without guns. I want to even the odds. Q2. There's a multitude of tasks regarding firearms and you can't have one that does it all. Q3. The fact is that several states do have legal ballistic matching databases but I don't think any have ever solved a crime. Not only is matching an extremely iffy analysis, criminals typically don't use guns that were on the database. Q4. You don't have to agree. You can run anti-tracking tools. I keep my phone GPS disabled at all times except when I need directions. I take a screenshot and disable it again. Make people more responsible? You mean keep people in fear. Also, how many people use fingerprints on biometric locks? Any breach into the fingerprint database would create a massive security concern as every laptop, phone or even safe could be vulnerable to phoney fingerprints.

  25.  @adrianpintea9675  I didn't change the subject. You use other people as comparison but you never use other people. Like your parents used to say, if other people jumped off a bridge would you follow them? I care about my rights, but I said I don't care about what other people think. No contradiction. "rescue or escape from a bat or knife is greater than the one from a gun" - still puts the blame on the victim by forcing the victim to run Q2. Try to hunt a turkey or waterfowl with a deer rifle. You'll quickly realize why there's so many kinds of guns. Q3. How is it a strawman? A strawman is misrepresenting an argument so you can easily debunk it. There's no misrepresentation. Those states had the supporting legislation. The fact that even CLEANING a gun will change the markings left by a gun makes the system unusable. Q4. You're the one advocating for near total control of citizenship by governments, you're the one who's so afraid of the world you'll take all freedoms away.

  26. You're entitled to your wrong opinion.

  27. Well, semi-auto weapons cannot be assault rifles because the definition only applies to automatic weapons which were banned in 1986, but if you mean long guns it's just a matter of training the algorithm.

  28. You might want to shift that red dot on your political compass to the authoritarian side.

  29.  @kweightthree  because of the authoritarian logic.

  31. Calls are actually slow means of information because stressed people give poor information and dispatchers can't tell law enforcement what's happening.

  32. Jesus Christ the point is that the algorithm was looking inside clothing it could be misused to find all sorts of objects and violate your privacy under the guise of looking for firearms.

  33. Worry about yourself. Last century our own governments murdered hundreds of millions of ourselves and you think they can be trusted with the guns? Best regards, a non-cucked European.

  34. The logic is that the cameras are already everywhere so it's not more invasive than it already is. But yeah, I agree it's invasive.

  35. Nah, what works in your country is having low crime. Brazil and Mexico have high crime. Despite their strict gun laws, they have extremely high gun crime. Telling criminals not to get illegal guns doesn't work.

  36.  @DerSwaider  You actually think that people are secretly bad and will turn bad if given a gun? Geez. "kids in your country" - I'm not American.

  37. @Social Justice Warrior I am using it right now to dunk on people.
