Norway is a very liberal country, run by progressives. It ranks #1 on socialprogress.org. It's so progressive that instead of an execution chamber it gave Anders Behring Breivik an Xbox so he can play it in his cell. I wonder if it's just racing games or if they gave him Call of Duty?

For such a progressive nation Norway did not change it's gun laws. Today an 18-year old can buy a gun and 1 in 10 households own a gun.

Why didn't Norway change it's gun laws? Don't they care about their children?
cuz its not about guns

guns don't kill ppl like all by themselves lawl

it sounds cold, but with so many guns in 1 country its just a matter of time till the next loser going to shot innocent humans. No matter how many new gun laws you put into place.

a gun ban would take at least 10 years to destroy most private guns, but it would lower the chance of mass-shootings dramtic.

but we talking here about america. For some/many(?) americans the 2nd amendment is a piece of history. The 2nd amendment might make no sence nowdays anymore but for many its part of their country DNA and these people will never give their guns up. They rather kill the people who want to take away their guns or die for it.

It would takes years to make it happen but a clean cut would end this problem on a long run.

But yeah, I dont see its happening. Maybe in 100 or 300 years.

Mass shootings will continue in every country, but in america it will happen more often than in other countrys.

Nothing gonna change.

Talk to ya at the next mass shooting topic

How about we get rid of gun free zones instead. Said it before, never heard of a mass shooting at a gun show.

The meme appears to be an effort to support the gun-advocate talking points.

In 2008, an 8-year-old boy died after accidentally shooting himself in the head at a gun show in Massachusetts. In 2014, a 9-year-old girl accidentally shot and killed her instructor at a gun range in Arizona.

In addition, a number of gun-related deaths and injuries have occurred at gun shows proper, according to numerous news reports. Among them, five people in three states were injured when weapons accidentally went off at gun shows in one day in January 2013, while a man seriously injured himself outside an Iowa gun show by accidentally shooting himself in 2018.

A 2017 study by the University of California at Berkeley found “a nearly 70 percent increase in deaths and injuries from firearms in California communities within convenient driving distance of Nevada gun shows.” The state of Nevada “has some of the least restrictive firearm laws in the country and no explicit regulations on gun shows” whereas California “has some of the strongest firearm laws in the country,” per the study.

Keyword: *mass* shooting.

Thanks though.

Both the Uvalde elementary school and Buffalo grocery store had armed guards present. Of course people don't shoot up gun shows. It's a hard target. If your goal is to kill a bunch of people, you're likely going to find a soft target. Of course, mass murders have occurred in or near hard targets.

Here's the thing about guns: surprise and initiative are about a 1,000x force multiplier. The defender has virtually no chance against the attacker when surprise is involved. Most of these mass shooters are suicidal, fully intending to either be killed by cops or to kill themselves. Why the fuck do you think it would matter if every teacher were carrying a machine gun? If you make schools a hard target, they're only going to find some other soft target, and meanwhile you'll have a bunch of gun accidents and aggravated assaults turned into murders because a gun was available at hand.

Read my above post, I don't think gun control is the answer to this, but your post is just completely illogical.

Ya, and also the type of gun doesn’t matter as much as the circumstances

The Virginia tech shooter killed like 36 full grown adults with only 2 pistols because he chained the two exits to the building shut so no one could leave

Same deal with this most recent shooter. He could have used a single-shot break barrel shotgun and killed as many kids when he’s locked the only exit, just would have taken slightly longer

I still personally think an increase in armed and well-trained security (same as we have to protect our politicians, concerts, airports, just about everywhere else involving mass gathering of adults) would do more to deter mass shooters than any specific gun law

Like i predicted after the "eco terrorist" in australia, this sort of thing is only going to increase in frequency. People are checking out of society for a multitude of reasons, some of their own volition while others tossed out. A portion of these "refuges" will eventually decide to burn everything down.
