It's incredible that a developed country can even say that. Only a gun nut thinks that "The majority of mass shootings kill less than 5 people" being a good case for keeping guns so loosely regulated. Like jesus christ. Imagine someone saying that without a pinch of irony. A mass shooting by FBI definition is the killing of 4 or more people. So I'm not sure what definition you are using to claim that it's usually less than 4 people. You fabricate things as you go, eh? And this may come as a shock, but I own firearms. I conceal carry 99% of the time. So I'm not a "gun-hating liberal." I just also happen to have a grasp on reality. --- David Mink.

Pressure cooker bombs are still much more difficult to make than buying a gun. If people would just as easily use pressure cookers, why don't those attack occur in developed countries like Australia? It's clear most psychotic people aren't going to go through much hassle. The hassle alone cuts down on the amount of mass killings if guns are unavailable.

To point out that even if we poofed away all the guns that psychos are by no means less capable of killing as many people as are killed in the average mass shooting. The handguns point is in reference to a completely different string of argument unrelated to the one between me and you.

Well both should be tackled no? I'm not going to go into a debate about what should be done, because it isn't a black and white issue. Just banning one and not others when they are inherently the same thing, isn't a solution. Banning all guns is another issue because it requires an amendment to the constitution that, likely, will not happen. The amendments are for adding rights, not revoking them. That's just opening up a huge can of worms.

There are many times where you use logic that you criticise others for using, you often ghost topics and ignore questions - all while touting yourself to be superior and not prone to any flawed thinking. Look I won't "ghost" out of topics where people back up their arguments with empirical data. But it's always the same flawed arguments over and over again with no factual basis. "America has the most mass shootings of all developed countries", not even close, when you look at the data per capita. "Gun bans decreased homicides in Australia", they didn't, the ban didn't affect the downward trend of their homicide rate at all. "Banning AR-15s would stop mass shootings", a tiny minority of mass shootings are committed with rifles. "Gun control would save lives", there has never been any study showing a casual correlation between gun control and less murders. I can, and have, shown all these things to be true with real evidence, and the usual crap I get in response is "Don't you care about the kids??"

Suicides did drop, but there was also a robust mental health system at that time that continues into today. It's ridiculous to credit one over the other because it helps your case. If it were just the bans then you'd see startling drops in gun free cities.
