So in the same way immigration can't stop Islamic extremists, but could reduce their numbers, couldn't stricter gun laws reduce incidents of mass murder? I just wanna point out that your comparison is flawed. Immigration changes would stop the perpetrators of violence, a gun law would only make a tool harder to acquire instead of stopping the perpetrators. Depends on how you look at it. My point is reduction through increased difficulty. In that way, it's an apt comparison. A psycho who wants to kill people and can't get a gun will use other things instead, like a truck or a pressure cooker bomb. You mean the pressure cooker bombs that killed 3 people in Boston? Yeah those things sure are as deadly as guns that kill dozens in minutes. The majority of mass shootings have fewer than 5 deaths. This guy still doesn't get it. Is it really so hard to understand that a gun can mow down a crowd in seconds? Sheesh you people will never admit it. --- David Mink.
