You're absolutely right, guns don't protect people at all...oh wait, they do. You mean the left has been lying to me this entire time?
Of those people that were protected, how many were protected from other people with guns? It's just an arms race basically. Sure everyone needs guns for protection, because everyone has guns. Funny how all the countries with low gun ownership don't have rampant murders.
Funny how the countries with high gun ownership don't have rampant murder. Israel and Switzerland anyone?
America doesn't have a gun problem, we have a culture problem.
Maybe Switzerland and Israel aren't the best examples. Switzerland has mandatory military service and by extension firearm familiarity training. Israel is...well Israel.
Also s good point. I feel like that adds to mine actually. Considering the severe lack of education, mental health support, etc. in the US, the solution isn't to add more guns then. Gun ownership increases safety when everyone is responsible (like Switzerland) but decreases it when everyone is not (like the US).
