    I tend to disagree for following reasons:

    - freedom ends where someone elses freedom begins

    - no one said freedom was save

    - people don’t stop to murder other people without guns

      Empty words from someone that does not understand how countries with less guns still work and don’t have CHILDREN KILLING IN THEIR SCHOOLS ALL THE TIME

        Sweden and Canada have pretty high rates of gun ownership and don’t have this problem. That said American school shootings are not as common as they are made out to be, there has been a lot of statistical fudging to make it look so much worse than it is.

        What all three countries do have are problems with gangs and they’re only getting worse as poverty drives people to crime. America has it worse because it has more poverty, but we will all catch up soon enough.

          School shootings aren’t a gang problem, and school shootings are way more common in the US than any other developed country.
