I'd just like to repeat those facts:

The murder rate in Chicago is 18.26 per 100,000.
The Firearm Injury Death Rate of Wyoming is 25.9 per 100,000.

Once again, credit for your attempt at playing with statistics...

The murder rate in Wyoming for 2017 was 2.6 per 100,000.

yes, murder rate is more important than murder count. Do you want to live in a neighborhood with 1 person is killed every year (that has a population of 10) or do you want to live in a neighborhood with 100 people killed every year that has a population of 10 million? You are much more likely to not murdered in the city with 10 million.

Please educate yourself on gun laws pertaining to legally purchasing them. You cannot travel to another state and legally purchase a handgun from a gun shop or a private seller and take it back to your home state. You can legally purchase one from a gun shop, but it must be sent by the licensed selling dealer to a licensed gun dealer in hour home state where you must pass a background check before taking possession. In the case of legally buying a hand gun from a private seller, the seller must take the gun to a licensed gun shop in that state and it must then be sent to an FFL in buyer's home state where a background check must be completed before taking possession.

In the case of buying a rifle or shotgun in another state, it is legal under federal law. However, it must be legal under state law in the state where the long gun is purchased. It also must be legal in the purchaser's state for him/her to own that type of long gun. The selling FFL will check applicable laws and will know if the sale is legal to that person according to the buyer's state gun laws. The same is true for the private seller, the state laws must be complied with.

So, your statement that if a gun is prohibited in the buyer's home state he/she can go to another state and legally buy it is totally incorrect.

If you believe that only black powder muskets are allowed, then the 1st Amendment should only apply to primitive printing presses. Not to the internet, radio or television.

Don't blame the politicians all the time - it's the people who vote for them who are the real culprits.

Isn't that the purpose of hunting, making sure the animal has no chance? The vast majority of hunters eat what they kill, so if you used a less lethal gun to hunt with you won't eat.

Banning private ownership of all firearms is the goal of the gun control organizations, look it up. They know that trying to enact a total ban on all guns won't fly so one gun is targeted and demonized creating cries for it's banning. Ban that one and another will become the target. It's called incrementalism, a small bite here and another one there and pretty soon all guns are banned.

First off lets enforce existing laws. Under federal law convicted felons and not allowed to possess guns and the law proscribes mandatory prison time, This prison time is supposed to be served in addition to prison time for the primry crime. Too often this crime is plea bargained away.

No plea bargaining for lesser charges. No parole for criminals who use a gun in their crime, prosecute straw purchasers which hardly ever happens. We have so-called "Hate Laws", why don't we have extra special punishment for using a gun in a crime? Reinstate capital punishment for murderers and swift implementation of the punishment. The government used the RICO act to bring down organized crime, why isn't it being implemented against inner city gangs who are responsible for the majority of mass killings.
Sadly, it is easier to emotionally react and demand the ban of the tool instead of actually doing something meaningful against the transgressors.

Assault weapons, by definition, are capable of "select fire". In other words, "fully automatic"...

I'll ask again. When was the last time an assault weapon was used in a crime?

Once again, you use a false narrative...

What "neighborhood" has 10 Million people?

Yes, Yes, Yes!!! Why this is such a foreign concept to so many people is maddening...

I agree with most of what you say, except, I believe politicians don't want to solve the gun shootings problem (in general) it is too juicy every election cycle. And it helps keep the based ****ed off at the other side.

:bigbow::bigbow::bigbow:

I've repeated this, ad nauseam, but it's continually ignored...

WE didn't murder each other. Some nutjob did shoot people. Don't let the act of a crazy person determine my freedoms, thank you very much.
