Regardless, the whole crux of their argument is that banning so-called assault weapons, expanded background checks, waiting period etc. will save lives. It won’t do that, and the anti-gun Left knows it. So, thanks to Vox for actually showing the end game of the Democratic agenda on firearms, which is that they really just want to ban guns. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have cited the Australian model on gun control. Clinton even went so far as to say the Supreme Court got the Second Amendment wrong in 2016. The level of violence in Europe, which is often cited by liberals to make the false argument that America is a shooting gallery, would require gun confiscation. Also, the Second Amendment’s language in the Constitution might not prevent such an extreme piece of legislation from passing; it’s the fact that there are not enough votes—and there probably never will be. Hey, at least there are gold stars for honesty (via Vox):

How about arming every household?
When a problem arises, the response time would be much shorter and focused (aimed) at the problem. /sarc
Anne Frank was unavailable for comment.
They are continuing with their agenda as if HilLIARy had won- Can you imagine what the government would be doing right now if she had?
Gun confiscation.
NON print version:
I guess the omit Muslim acts of violence in Europe when tallying their count. Along with other instruments used besides guns.
Islamist beheadings must not count in their violence statistics.
Well, considering 65% of Gun Violence is committed by a certain 3% of the population, is deportation also part of the solution?
we would also have to expel or deport most blacks and Hispanics to reach the European level of violence.
Like Mexico. They have gun prohibition and low "European" levels of violence. /s
We'll see insurrection and militia warfare with stratospheric levels of violence.
Might want to rethink that philosophy.
Right on, rktman.
That’s why public schools spend almost no time on American history.
Harvard Law School no longer requires Constitutional Law in order to graduate.
You’d be hard pressed to find a historically accurate and complete documentary on places like the History Channel.
Doesn’t
I read years ago that if the violence caused by Blacks was removed from the US stats, we’d be lower than Europe.
Those with violent intentions will commit violence even without guns. Liberal politics have made it so too many people have no value system that would prevent them from committing violence.
Only omitted because they’re not “real” europeans.
I bet martial law in about 10 zip codes would get us close to European levels. US levels are not evenly distributed and while it’s probably more than 10 zip codes that are bad, it’s nowhere near 10% of the country that has a problem. And the other 90% probably beats Europe.
But, liberals would rather focus on all guns rather than actual violence.
If you subtract out homicides by blacks and Hispanics, the population of the US which is of European descent has very similar homicide rates as Europe.
