some of us out here in the woods that still rely on firearms as a part of our daily lives to both put food on the table and protect against dangerous animals in the area (mainly black bears around me).

I love how you try and justify 50k gun deaths (a lot of them being children) by saying you hunt.

🤦‍♂️

Dude just defended his use of firearms. Something which is also legal in Canada and other nations.

America doesn’t have insane gun laws. We have outdated gun laws that are in need of some common sense reforms, which is a monumentally difficult task due to gun ownership being baked into our country from the founding. The only way to change this is through a constitutional amendment, which would need to be approved by 38 or more states, and more than half our lands are still mostly undeveloped rural areas where guns are very much still a necessity to live there.

The world is not like the US period. What works for the world won’t necessarily work for America.

Switzerland has 28 privately owned guns for every 100 residents.

America has 120 privately owned guns for every 100 residents.

Please explain how 28 is more than 120? Must be counting with that metric system I’m to American to understand.

I’m no expert on the subject, but if I were to venture a gues as to why that is, I’d probably point to Switzerland’s population being just 9 million while America’s is over 340 million as a starting point.

I’m not trying to justify any gun deaths, especially of children, because I hunt. Those are your words, and I’d thank you to not put them in my mouth. What I said is there’s still parts of this country that people need guns for food and protection from dangerous animals.
