Comparing and discussing modern PCC with a traditional PCC. Both are 9mm. Firearms are the Henry Homesteader and the Lone Wolf G9 PCC.----------------------...
A little different post this time, not a news article or anything. Just some excellent points made here.
We don’t allow people to automatic weapons without a background check and even then it’s old stock.
An AR-15 is similar to the M-16. The only real difference is depending on the model, the m-16 will be fully automatic or have a three round burst.
The round fired is a 5.56 NATO round which is the same round used for varmint hunting. There is nothing unique about the round or deadly about it. It’s an intermediate round.
My 30-06 is much deadlier on a round per round basis.
The point being is people freak over an AR-15 when it’s used in under 1% of murders.
Handguns are the primary killer and its inner city youth killing each other.
In all fairness I don’t have an answer. It’s a tough problem to solve that’s tied to culture.
My gut reaction is to increase the number of police on the streets as they did in the 90’s when we had a rapid decrease in murders. Studies are mixed is that really helped. That was part of Joe Biden plan to decrease crime the 90’s.
Joe also worked to increase prison time but once again studies are mixed is that worked.
What we do know is the in the 90’s we had a sharp decline and I do think that should be studied. We need to really learned what did and didn’t help.
I am not a fan of Joe Biden. I think he’s a racist but he did push tough on crime measures in the 90’s. The question is did that really cause the decline or was it something else.
Other countries disarmed their population and took away their rights. That doesn’t interest me.
We should do what has worked in the past. If that is more police and longer jail sentences, as Biden claims then let’s do it. I have no issue keeping criminals in prison.
The 1994 crime bill wasn’t racist. That is an odd thing to say. Can you point to where the law was racist?
Maybe we should look to what other developed countries have done to reduce gun crime
Why should I give a fuck about gun crime, a category solely defined by the use of guns, rather than violence as a whole, which gun control has repeatedly proven to have no statistical impact on?

It’s the leading cause of death for children.
The U.S. has 120 guns for every 100 people, and a homicide rate or 6 per 100,000.
Finland has 32 guns for every 100 people, and a homicide rate of 1.6 per 100,000
Germany has 20 guns for every 100 people, and a homicide rate of 0.8 per 100,000.
The U.S. has the most lax gun law, followed by Finland. Germany is by far the most strict of these three.

If gun control doesn’t work why is gun control tied to lower deaths, and gun quantity tied to higher deaths?
Back on your favorite lie, eh
It’s not a lie. Feel free to look the stats up yourself if you don’t believe them.
I believe the stats. Just not your warped conclusions
This isn’t true if you’re at a gun show or have a friend with one.
Thats straight up not true. NFA items always require a tax stamp, which means a background check.
TIL. I retract my previous statement.
