    Did you not read the part where they said that dumb Americans can shut up and keep their idiocacy to themselves?

    Like honestly, this is the DUMBEST fucking argument I’ve ever heard.

    Multiple factors contribute to the both the rate and severity of violent crime, congratulations Einstein! Now answer me this, when multiple factors contribute to something happening, and you want to stop that something from happening, do you a) sit around and do nothing and say it’s impossible to address in any way shape or form cause the solution requires addressing multiple factors, or do you b) try and address all the factors contributing to it, starting with the easiest and most obvious ones?

    Like Jesus Christ, think with your fucking brain, not the lead dust poisoning it.

        Say something that’s not a brain dead NRA argument if you want people to not insult your intelligence.

        Tell us again how when multiple factors contribute to a problem that means you can’t address any of them.

        That was your argument right?

          Where did I ever suggest that? You can quote me so there’s no ambiguity.

          Or just admit you’re making up bullshit that’s easier to argue against because you can’t address what I’m actually saying.

            Oh I’m sorry, your arguing that El Salvador and the US have comparable levels of law enforcement and border control?

            Oh I’m so sorry I mistook your dumbass argument that has no merit for a different dumbass argument that has no merit.

              Lol, there you go doing it again.

              your arguing that El Salvador and the US have comparable levels of law enforcement and border control?

              I’m arguing the exact opposite of that. You should really brush up on your reading comprehension. Try to address what’s being said instead of playing leapfrog with yourself like someone who is chronically reddit-brained.

                Your argument is that gun control is not the answer to reducing gun crime, because, El Salvador bans guns and has a high rate of gun crime.

                It’s a dumbass argument and we’re all waiting for you to explain how it’s not.

                  Okay. Keep replacing my arguments with ones that are easier for you to argue against.

                  I don’t think you’re capable of doing anything more.

                    Are guns legal in: El Salvador, Venezuela, Eswatini, Jamaica, Honduras, Guatemala, Brazil, and Columbia?

                    All of those nations have higher firearm death rates than the US.

                    If guns are illegal in any of the nations with higher firearm death rates than the US, then can you acknowledge that banning guns is not the only issue? Maybe culture has something to do with it?

                    Go ahead and explain what you meant then. You can’t gaslight us when your words are literally sitting there three comments up.
