@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli Where did I say any of that

Gun-controls at best neutral wrt crime but infringement of US constitution & Common Law rights to bear arms on which is based

But balance of real evidence v cherry-picked "proof" based on eg US v other 19 or even 5 of G20/G6 is they make crime WORSE!

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli If you do a proper comparison of legal gun ownership/possession (Switzerland & Israel have high gun ownership but sky-high possession when you include the military-spec often FULL-AUTO guns armed forcesforces often keep at home) v Gun MURDER (not "deaths"=mainly suicides-which...

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli If do proper comparison of legal gun ownership/possession (inc Switzerland & Israel military guns at home) v Gun MURDER (not "deaths"=mainly suicides-which highest in strictest gun-control nations)

Homicides go UP as LEGAL gun POSSESSION goes DOWN

And murders FALL as guns rise!

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli If #GunControl is such a good idea why is it that as gun controls INCREASE so do crime in general and murder in particular

Especially murder of citizens by despotic regimes

Why do you support gun controls

Clearly you support despotic regimes & murder!😲🤦‍♂️😱

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli It's clear that widespread ownership of firearms by the law abiding public is a well recognised requirement for not just public safety but also democracy

So you have to ask why some people are so keen on removing firearms from the law abiding citizenry

What exactly is the aim😱

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli You have to wonder what exactly is the agenda of the gun-ban lobby

And who exactly they are trying to protect

And what exactly are they trying to promote

As they certainly aren't trying to protect the public or promote democracy!😲🤦‍♂️😱

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli People need to do some research and get some perspective on firearms controls gun ownership gun and homicide levels

Instead of gun-ban lobby "statistics" cherry-picked from countries that aren't comparable while ignoring all the relevant data!

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli Most of the "statistics" you see on firearms controls from the gun-ban lobby are lies and damned lies!😱🤦‍♂️

If they had an actual argument they'd use it

But they haven't so they don't

They lie and use emotional guilt-tripping shroud-waving blackmail!

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli The public have been brainwashed by the gun-ban lobby with lies damned lies and statistics

But why?!

There is clearly at best no, at worst an inverse relationship between legal firearms ownership and not only gun murders, but all armed and violent crime

So why lie!!!😱🤦‍♂️

@James85fletcher @MrAhmednurAli Public brainwashed by gun-ban lobby with lies

Legal gun ownership has NO effect or REDUCES ARMED CRIME

Were NO mass school shootings when anyone could own an actual machine gun

And hardly any before 1999

So why after ever increasing gun-bans

What's cause

Why being hidden😱
