However, which do you think most people would prefer: Two mass killings by crazies with knives, or hundreds of mass shootings by crazies with guns?You forgot the yearly mass executions by the government in china every year where real statistics are never given. In 1989, 10,000 people were murdered by their government for protesting for more freedom and choice.https://www.history.com/topics/china/tiananmen-square. You always ignore the University of Hawaii's study on democide. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. The representatives who want all these gun bans and control should have to live with the same laws. No semi-auto or full auto firearms should be used to protect them. This of course will never happen since those laws don't apply to the yahoos in charge. Can we say hypocrisy! The choice between freedom or a repressive government, I would choose the shootings with crazies as would most people. Why would I claim this you may ask? Prison is safer for most, than living on the outside, yet very few would wish to be in prison.. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2013...-free.html So called guaranteed safety, housing, health care, jobs, etc comes with a very high cost, freedom. In the end, a person will get neither. Why people refuse to acknowledge this reality is beyond me..
