If any effort was made, there would be a second civil war.

Why do so many people (mainly Europeans from my observations) fail to realize this?

Discuss!

I would have said "wishing" but there is a difference between thinking there would be no guns in an ideal world, and then thinking that it is possible in this one.

Very few people on this forum talk about wishing to outlaw or have outlawed all guns and those who do are from England.

Why I mentioned Europeans specifically in the OP.

The people I adress in this thread are a minority, but they do exist, on this forum as well.

Well the British have a pretty good reason to argue for it as it's working pretty well in their country but to apply it in the US would be stability suicide for the whole country.

Exactly my point, they don't seem to realize its not possible.

Talking about Sweden is an ultrabannable offense.

Too bad being completely and utterly wrong isn't a bannable offense.

Shut the -blam!- up and come back with a better police force OP.

I be trippin'.

We need to better control who can get guns here, banning them entirely won't work. Too many people have them and too many people won't willingly give them up.

We need to control things like silencers, high capacity magazines, and the types of guns people can get. We need to do more thorough background checks, and check the backgrounds of people they live with.

Spending all this effort pinning it on guns is a waste. The issue is a human issue and mental health based.

Trying to deny people arms only slightly changes the plans they would carry out anyway. These people who commit such acts aren't driven to do so because of a gun and won't give up if said gun is slightly more elusive to acquire.
