These are the same people who are responsible for us having a child molester in the White House right now.

That’s because it really does make a difference, but Republicans in America would rather have their balls, chopped off, then to let their guns go.

@Gordon: but if gun control doesn’t make a difference why do countries like the UK, Canada, Australia et cetera where guns are restricted heavily have much less gun crime compared to the US where guns are much easier to get? Either there are just naturally a lot less people in those countries that want to commit mass shootings or there’s something in the US culture that is particularly violent, or the amount of guns present in a society can be directly correlated to the number of mass shootings that that society experiences.

 Because it's obvious no matter what kind of gun control laws he might have the people who wanna misuse the guns are going to get their hands on them one way or another.

I’m confused, why are we talking about consequences, crimes of passion imply just that, passion, spur of the moment thinking.  a similar thing happened a few years ago, when a girl was extorted online for her naked photos. She was 13. Within I think five minutes of receiving the extortion message, she shot herself. Because America makes this shit so easy. Like I said, your country deserves literally everything it gets at this point.

I mean the 11-year-old kid was pretty stupid because they will probably try him as an adult and he'll spend the rest of his life in prison and of course at the end of the day he still doesn't have his Nintendo switch. When I was growing up we thought about consequences so that's the first thing would have crossed our mind back then. We were taught to fear consequences because consequences were a part of society.

 The ease with which a crime of passion can be committed has a Direct effect on the whether or not it is committed. Guns are easy. Not a difficult concept. For nonAmericans of course. 
Gordon
Well let's say that you took every gun in the United States off the street except the one gun that the 11-year-old boy had. Guns are harmless unless there's a disturbed person holding that gun with their finger on the trigger. That 11-year-old boy could've easily went into the kitchen and got a butcher knife or any other kind of weapon and got the same results. Now of course the father should've been a responsible gun owner and locked that gun up and made it impossible for the 11-year-old boy to get his hands on it.

fewer guns would mean that father would have survived. Honestly America deserves whatever it gets at this point.
