Another senseless mass shooting

[Buzz Rules]

Are there actually any treaties worded the way your post was?

A

I have an example. I’m going to find it online.

This is a post about the actual people involved in THIS shooting. Jehovah’s Witnesses refuse to accept blood transfusions. So, the count of the number dead may go up for this massacre.

We just had a 4 year old shoot a 6 year old here in Manitoba. Child is okay. Hunting rifle left out where children got it.




Are you worried about Nazis in Pennsylvania?

It's incidents like this, I suppose that make gun violence the #5 cause of childhood death in Canada, as per the link.

Oh for Pete's sake, Buzz... Egyptian/Hittite?!? Put up your hand, anybody on this thread other than Buzz and me that knows where the Hittite nation is located.

My guess is not in Pennsylvania ...

One thing that is evident, all we're going to do in this thread is go around in circles for days like with every other same topic thread.

True. As my late Father In Law used to say......"they already broke 12 laws.......will passing a 13th law actually deter someone?"

Go to RCGroups.com off-topic section and we can talk about it. We can't talk about it here.

Would tend to agree ... cuz I am not even sure how to react to ...

How did the German Weapons Act work out for some folks in 1938?

I have homeschooled my kids through multiple trips through ancient history, so I think I have an excuse???

Mans inhumanity towards man...

 

[Dan Murphy]

No other country does, actually. While there are more violent places overall (see link), there's nowhere that these mass-shooting incidents are common.

NOTE: This data is outdated (2016) but I really like the way they also tally suicides and casualty by unintentional discharge. Those give a little different view of the potential impact of guns, beyond just the use in homicides.

The stats on child deaths are also very telling.

The US really fails big time when it comes to guns.

Turkey. We learned about this in high school. It is well known and everyone in the UN knows it too.

Everyone in the UN also knows that it hasn’t been called Turkey for the last year.

If guns were banned completely on earth, that would be a start.

But wouldn't criminals still have guns?

It shows peace can happen when countries honor the terms of their treaties.

It would limit more from getting them. And it would make law enforcement have an easier time catching the criminals who still possess them.
