And second, early Sunday morning local time, yet another shooting has occurred close to a prominent synagogue in central Copenhagen.

Obviously more restrictions on firearms will prevent this from ever, ever, ever happening again.

The USA had nothing to do with these shootings. Yet the article seems to primarily point out how much more sophisticated Danish culture is compared to us knuckle-dragging Americans.

“Well regulated”

Our use in the 2nd amendment is different than the use in this article.

LOL! But of course. They are so much more enlightened than us kuh-nukle draggin’ neanderthals. We must really be back-erds in their estimation. Cower away people. The government is here and ready to protect you. Well, at least clean up afterwards.

Obviously, the gun laws in Denmark didn’t prevent a deranged Muslim gunman from murdering a bunch of people. Disarmed victims are very convenient for Muslim killers thanks to the Euro trash and their hoplophobia.
