It is one of the only nations in the world - and the only one in Europe - that provides the constitutional right to bear arms.

Switzerland does well with guns.
In Switzerland, everyone is trained to use guns
I don’t think lack of training was this guys issue.
Switzerland also has heavily regulated ammunition. You can’t just go to the store and buy some bullets, like in Czechia
Like Chris Rocks stand up. Charge more for the bullets and people will think more about killing. paraphrase
The Swiss solution really is what should be followed.
The solution to allow gun ownership is conscription?
No thanks.
If you follow the constitution, the right to bear arms is for a well regulated militia. Not for a stressed 18 year old buying an AR-15 at Walmart to shoot up rioters from another state.
Yes totally forgot about that the people part…go read some federalist papers and a few history books the 2nd is for the people not the militia.
Hey don’t cry about unborn babies but be pro school shootings there bud. The founders had single shot musket rifles not semi automatic rifles. If you want to be constructionist then ban the sale of anything other than breach loaders with separate shell and powder charge and have a good day.
If people learned how to defend themselves and then also everyone knew how to use them suddenly gun culture changes and it’s like a tool instead of a status symbol. If you don’t want to serve, there are non-combat roles. If you don’t like it then hey maybe you should invent bullet proof kids.
Mandatory conscription is probably my most “out there” political belief. I think the benefits would be vast! I don’t think it would prevent mass shootings in America, though.
Conscription doesn’t mean war. It means being prepared. And yes maybe we could be more prepared to deal with this stupidity and remove the gun culture if it wasn’t special anymore.
I think one of the benefits would be less war since every citizen would be personally affected by it. Also all the public works and infrastructure. And healthcare. It could be great! Maybe it would help with all the “lonely men” culture that we hear so much about, and likely plays into some of the gun culture. I guess we’ll never know since that won’t happen here, though.

I bet those dead university students enjoyed all that constitutional freedom.
I would like to hear about the killers psychology and motivation (don’t care about the fuckers name) and what is being done to prevent such motivation from manifesting again.
We don’t often talk about this in the limelight, but it’s important. We need to understand how they got here if we want to have any hope of reducing the odds of that happening again.
That takes time to find out, give it a few days.
America continues to be global leader in exporting culture
Love the innovation! It’s not easy making everything about America, but by god people always find a way!
tbh america and domestic mass shootings are pretty much synonymous at this point. this time (this one rare time) an immediate association with the us seems appropriate.
It was inspired by a Russian mass shooting according to the actual article… let’s stop being ignorant
which in no way nullifies the overwhelming figures seen in the us.
My condolences to the families.
Hope they’ll figure out how to never make it happen again.
And yes, for God’s sake, ban firearms.
Doc ock?

There’s one every few years in almost every country.
The difference is it’s not a mass shooting per week… This doesn’t help your argument as much as you think it does.
Edit: also the joke is most developed countries are allowed to own guns to some extent, a total ban is only what your side tells you to keep your support.
You mean per day.
Well that’s why it’s actually news worthy… in the US it would just be another normal day.
Damn dude, literally couldn’t google what the gun laws in Czech Republic are.
Here’s your spoonfed quote literally pulled from the article to go with your dipshit comment.
Czech Republic has some of the most liberal gun laws in Europe. There are more than 800,000 firearms of all categories registered among 300,000 gun permit holders in the country, which has a population of about 10.5 million people, writes Ella Nunn.
It is one of the only nations in the world - and the only one in Europe - that provides the constitutional right to bear arms.
Concealed-carry permits for self-defence can be obtained by Czech citizens without presenting specific reasons and recreational shooting is one of the most popular sports in the country.
I’m sure if you had the patience, literacy, and weren’t currently struggling with your mental capacity to make it this far down my comment to read this much, you’d probably feel a bit like an asshole to try to make this nightmarish story into your opportunity to talk about needing more guns on the street. Alas, I’m currently speaking into the void cuz your head is likely still buried just far enough up your own ass for you to enjoy the smell of your own farts while searching for your next astounding comment. The people you hear crying aren’t the ones you triggered with your unhinged comment, it’s the sound of everyone who cares about you. We’re all really concerned about you and are worried you’d suffocate were it not for how much you laugh at your own heartless comments.
Another uneducated American haha.
