Just finished the video. This guy completely fails to address the point that the countries he references have fractions of the population of the US.

Japan:

US:

>>
>>70928743
Jokes aside, the only reason FOR banning them is "muh feels." Regulation is fine, but outright removing them from responsible citizens is only going to cause trouble. The murder rates in the US are minuscule compared to the population. People get murdered in droves in multitudes of ways every day. Nobody would give a shit about gun politics anymore if every single murder was covered by the media.

>14 year olds could walk into a gun shop and buy whatever they wanted

Its funny, I remember reading a source someone posted on /k/ awhile back that there were several recorded instances of early 20th century London police who, upon encountering armed criminals who fired at them, asked passerby's for their carry pistols so that they could return fire.

Its amazing how quickly a culture can be pussified so quickly.

>>70928878
>>70927439

Another thing the video leaves out in its analysis of Japan is that by any standard definition it is a repressive police state.

Japanese police can arrest and search you at any time for any reason and can hold you for virtually any length of time they wish without trial or warrants. Japan police are also allowed to use torture; the Japan criminal justice system has a over 95% conviction rate, which is pretty much entirely confessions. Most "solved criminal cases" in Japan comes from locking up suspects and beating a confession out of them without any access to a lawyer or even a fair trial. They also are one of the few countries that still hang people.

So yes, gun control works for Japan. You just don't have any other rights, either.
>>
>>70930128
What's worse is when they say "look, more guns = more GUN crime".
They never look at TOTAL crime, just crime committed with a gun.
I guess murder only matters when a gun is involved.

Then you get the idiots that think you can just run away or fight off someone with a knife. Unless you're at least 21ft away there's nothing you can do.

Plenty of problems with the video, but it all comes down to how wrong he is about the second amendment.

>Assumes gun owners don’t know the 2A by heart, and just paraphrase it. Hilariously wrong.
>”Well regulated” doesn’t mean “regulated by the government.” It was an expression at the time of the Founding meaning “the property of something being in proper working order.” Basically, the militia should be GOOD with their arms, nothing more is meant here. (which, btw, doesn’t happen unless they keep and use them frequently)
>Grammatically, the right does not belong to the militia, nor is it contingent upon being IN a militia. Here’s an equivalent sentence: “A well-read collegiate, being necessary to the wisdom of a free state, the right of the people to keep and read books shall not be infringed.” Would you have to be in university to read books, then?

>Grammatically, the right does not belong to the militia

People who believe this argument are honestly retarded. There is literally no situation in which it could be construed that the right belongs to the militia. That is such an utter failure of comprehension that I am astounded it continues to surface. There are plenty of better (but still garbage) arguments against private gun ownership, but "it's the right of the militia!" doesn't get a passing grade.

Worse yet is that people think, for some reason, Madison would put forth an amendment that protects the rights of states to form small armies in a document that was crafted SPECIFICALLY to protect individual rights.

A correlation of -1 or 1 means that if you give me one variable, I can tell you the value of the other. A correlation of 0 means that there is no such relation that I can rely on.

I'm sure you've heard that correlation does not equal causation. It is absolutely true. But there is a flip side: Causation does, in fact, imply correlation. If two variables are highly correlated, you cannot automatically infer that one causes the other, but if one variable does cause the other, you can infer that there will be a non-zero correlation.

A claim is made: Guns cause more homicides. A causality argument has been made, so we would expect a strong positive correlation to be evident. We can test that claim by looking at the correlation. If it is not there, we can say that causality is either so minimal that it is lost in the noise, or it is not there.
>>
>>70931524

That was actually by an old metric of 12k murders per year. Now that we're down to about 8k gun homicides per year (2.46/100k) that puts us into the 150s.

Keep in mind, our most gun friendly states and those with the highest gun ownership actually have less gun homicide than Australia. Vermont, where anyone can legally carry a firearm as soon as they turn 21, with no permit or license, has .3 gun homicides per 100k.

The purpose of the 2nd Amendment is clearly explained in Federalist Paper 46, by James Madison; And that purpose is for individuals to be capable of protecting themselves and to protect themselves and others from tyranny in government, being armed and knowing how to use a gun fits that purpose. I’m not sure why that’s so difficult to understand. Also, Jefferson and Madison may have wanted the Constitution and the Bill of Rights to be able to be altered, but for the benefit of the people, not to the benefit of the government. It doesn’t benefit us in any way, or help us further protect ourselves per the intent of the 2nd Amendment by allowing the government to cripple it’s intent.

The existing Bill of Rights was the only reason for accepting the Constitution with a stronger centralized government over the Articles of the Confederation. It’s clear and unambiguous if you read the very words of the men who wrote them. If you faggots don’t understand that, you are a threat to American rights and freedom.

In 2013, the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) revealed that it had selected political groups applying for tax-exempt status for intensive scrutiny based on their names or political themes. This led to wide condemnation of the agency and triggered several investigations.

Higher murder rates are irrelevant, frankly. I just do not care. The federal government cannot be allowed to have an unchecked monopoly on force.

>You should just lick the boot anon, it'll crush you even if you all resist, ANON DAMMIT LICK THE BOOT LIKE THE REST OF US

No. Drones and tanks cannot conduct strip searches or stand sentry at a corner. A guerilla war could be fought successfully until enough military units defected to give us a chance. Not to mention stealing hardware and taking out infrastructure, which cripples the higher tech aspects of the war machine.

And so what, anyway? If this unlikely scenario did play out, more than a third of us own firearms, and most of that number own more than one meaning I could arm my hesitant neighbor if needed. That's a very costly war that uncle sam does not want. Hence it will probably never play out...but only because we are passively combating the monopoly on force.

If you want to live in some safe little government-heavy hugbox, move to a state that favors it. The rest of us will live here in Idaho, or Montana, or Wyoming or Texas. That's the nice thing about the United Sates: We don't all have to live under the same shitty ruleset. You can have your shitty rules governing your shitty life, and I can have my shitty rules to govern mine. Why are people so adamant that we all have to suffer equally here? That's what the EU is for.

Actually if you remove urban centers altogether, it drops even more. We have tremendous gun ownership in Idaho, and our gun violence is negligible.

No it isn't. You don't need a drivers licence to own a car or drive a car on your own land. You need a shotgun certificate AND a safe AND give yourself up to a police search in order to just buy a shotgun. It's nothing like a drivers licence.

If the shotguns were stolen from farmers, the stupid safe requirement obviously doesn't work - the regulation doesn't work.
Does making you have to add stupid weights on your handgun to make it longer stop people concealing them? - No because the criminal will just take them off.

Now answer me, what has the UK gun law achieved?
Has it lowered crime? - No
Has it lowered gun crime? - No
Has it stopped mass shootings? - No

What has it done? - Nothing.
Crime rates were LOWER when 14 year olds could go into a shop and buy whatever gun they wanted, no licence, no registration.

I don't care what you think.

This is a moving average (5 years in each direction) of the crime rates in the UK, that is absolute number of crimes divided by population (all relative to the rate at the year 2000)


>>70928651
pic related is the absolute rates, the statistical fluctuation makes it a little harder to determine any trends
They vertical lines show when the new gun laws were introduced.
Can you tell me that ANY of them made any appreciable difference to crime rates?

The only one who's definition has appreciably changed is "violent crime", the rest have been relatively unchanged.

Gun crime would probably be up.
Homicide rate would be either unchanged or down.

The loony left spent the better part of a century trying to ban handguns here. It went nowhere because handguns are insanely popular.

They targeted "assault weapons" specifically because they weren't particularly popular at the time.

Now they're the most popular rifles in the country.

It annoys me that prior to 1996, handguns were perfectly legal to own in the UK. One mass shooting by a deranged lunatic that shouldn't have had access to them in the first place:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunblane_school_massacre

And we implemented a blanket ban. The only firearms the general public can own without a specialised profession (i.e. close-quarters security or bodyguard) are shotguns and rifles and even then you still need a licence that's renewed every two years.

Gun ownership isn't a right in the UK, but I see absolutely no reason why a deadly weapon can't be licenced in the same way as the other deadly weapon - cars and HGVs - are licenced.

You and I think alike, brother. Someone with a basic driver's licence which costs about £500 including tuition can drive a minibus with 16 people in it on a motorway at 70mph after being done for speeding 3 times.

Yet the police can arbitrarily deny anyone a rifle/shotgun certificate because of unspecified "reasons" whether or not they have committed any crimes or acted not in good character.

You can kill far more people on a motorway in less time than it takes to reload a revolver or shotgun.

I wish I could stop being pro-gun so I could become pro-gun just to spite his inflamed sphincter.

You sure convinced me with your passive aggressive argument style brah!

Kids used to bring their parents guns to school to go shooting after yet there were no school shootings.

I don't really care if you want to make the age limit 18 but the fact is that even a ten year old could get their hands on a gun, just like they can get alcohol, cigarettes and weed.
If they want to kill someone they'll just use a knife. Except a knife is silent whereas a gun makes a loud noise so everyone around will know someone's been shot.

Obviously legislation needs to do some work prior to that.

Not an argument. Fewer guns result in fewer gun crimes. The point raised in my post still holds true.
>>
>>70952121

Not according to the statistics.

We've been buying up guns by the tens of million and crime has been dropping for decades.

>>70952121
Fewer guns does nothing to TOTAL crime.
Fewer guns does nothing to TOTAL homicide.
What does it matter what tool is used, faggot.

Yes.
They've been replacing the firearms officers with no-guns people all over the UK too.
The police union also want to do random armed inspections of the homes of gun owners.

If you baby children their entire lives and never expose them to what the real world is like, or show them how to be strong against opposition they will grow up and be one of those faggots everyone on /pol/ hates.

I wasn't clear enough: Fewer guns => fewer gun related crimes.

>>70952784
Do you believe a no-gun-law wouldn't drop the current gun related crime rate even further?

>>70952898
Stop being egoistic. If fewer guns result in fewer deaths than your opinion is objectively less ethical.

>>70953016
So you also believe that a no-gun-law would do nothing about the gun-related crime rate?

It only results in fewer firearm deaths, you moron. Forcing someone to give up their guns at gunpoint is literal pottery.

Of course not. I'm not some mentally ill liberal.

There are half a billion unregistered guns in circulation in the US. What is preventing the law abiding from attaining one going to do to stop people who don't obey the law?

Again. We are buying guns by the tens of millions. Violent crime is nearing record lows. The murder rate is half of what it was twenty years ago.

You're trying to create a solution for a problem that doesn't exist. A sure sign of mental illness.

Cool. A .22 rim fire in the good old days is a bit different from an assault rifle in urban 2016. Both deadly though. Are you really saying we could/should remove all legislation?

>Cool. A .22 rim fire in the good old days is a bit different from an assault rifle in urban 2016.
hahahahahahahaha

Here in california, .223/5.56 are heavily restricted. Either you remove all pistol grips and other features, or you use a bullet button. .22s aren't forced to comply. So stupidity has won out over here as well. And despite the idiotic notions of a lot of gun-grabbers, full autos are legal in the USA. Just make sure it is pre-1985 and you pay for a tax stamp.

Gun laws are literally trash made up by idiots who watch fucking action movies and freak out.

This is obviously a better result compared to high firearm deaths.

>>70953335
This is the only argument I cannot refute. I would advice you to move into a better neighborhood.

>>70953632
You are using the same strawman again. Gun related crime rate might be decreasing, but it would be lower with no guns at all. Talking about illegal gun regulation is illogical. It is by definition impossible to do so. We have illegal weapons so does japan, but we still have very low gun related crime rates.

You're British so I don't expect you to know any better but a modern day sporting rifle and an assault rifle are very different.

Sporting rifles are semi-automatic firing or use bolt actions. You can get them in all calibres but .22 is probably the most popular still.

An assault rifle is what you see in the military, they can differentiate between fully-automatic and semi-automatic firing.

I am an American, so in the US it is illegal to own any assault rifle that was manufactured after 1986. All (legally obtained) automatic weapons are registered. Trying to buy an automatic rifle in the US is very costly, and therefore impractical for many. Very few own assault rifles and if they do, they're usually older men who have lots of money to spend.

What makes murders with guns worse than murder with another tool?
>>
>>70953211
I don't really care about gun-related crime, I care about total crime rates.

Also, look at one of the graphs I posted above.
None of the UK gun laws have decreased crime rates.
Not only that but there is more GUN crime now than there was when there was no licensing or registration required to buy a gun.

>>70953645
>Are you really saying we could/should remove all legislation?
yes, maybe keep 18+ for sales but that's it
legislation does nothing other than play to your feels

>>70932380
>Because we're not angsty manlets who feel their need to play rambo
No, you're children who need mommy and daddy government to tell you what rights you should and shouldn't have.
> is more important that innocent people being killed?
Total violent crime was on a global decline since 1969- various factors came into play
>Policing practices
>Tough sentencing
>Contraception
>Normalization of abortion
>Removal of lead paint and fuel additives
That includes violent crime committed with firearms.


By the time gun control was fully enacted in Australia
>Total violent crime and total gun crime was already on a decline
>"Mass shootings" were highly anomalous incidents
>Semi automatic rifles provided for an infinitesimal amount of deaths
>Most violent crime- gun crime and otherwise- was centered around gang culture
>Gangs did not care with which weapon they committed their crimes

I don't remember the exact figures, but when you look up global violent crime charts (I think it was OCED who conducted the study) all the expected decrease in total violent crime by attempting to decrease gun crime was very simply picked up by other weapons.

Say if there were 100 murders, 50% of murders were committed with guns, the next year there were still 100 murders, and that 50% was picked up by fists, blunt objects and knives.

>>70954171
>This is obviously a better result compared to high firearm deaths.
no change in net deaths, just a difference in method.
>>
>>70954551
+more violent crime since there's less danger of repercussions when attacking an unarmed person
>>
>>70954270
I referred to an asault rifle because some other bong seems to want to legalize all weapons.

I am British but did have the pleasure of shooting a Sterling sub machine gun and an l1a1 SLR many years ago.
>>
>>70954171
>Gun related crime rate might be decreasing, but it would be lower with no guns at all.


Fallacious:
>1.
a)Total violent crime(assaults, murders, manslaughters)
b)Criminal deaths (murders and manslaughters)
c)Total violent crime solely committed with firearms
d)Criminal deaths (murders and manslaughters) sole committed with firearms

have all been steadily decreasing since the 70s, due to social, biological, and demographic shifts. When the gun bans occurred, the decrease in any of the preceding metrics were pinned on the wrong factor.

>2.
After the Gun bans in the UK and Aus occurred, the total violent crime remained the same or followed the overall 30 year downward trend. The violent crime and criminal deaths that did occur were simply conducted with other weapons.

Your assertion was fewer guns, less gun crime.

The opposite is the reality of the situation.

Choosing to ignore reality in favor of fairy tales is a sure sign of mental illness.

Time for you to go home.

>>70954452
>>70954551
I would argue that your survival rate tends to be higher with weapons other than guns.

Well I am arguing for gun-related crime rates, not how to decrease the total crime rate. Total crime rate is probably fixable through the increase of the populations intelligence.

No

I am not ignoring reality. But you are attacking me personally, which devalues your personality in this thread.
