Having a gun in house increases the risk of death inside that house.Yeah...you tried to include accidental deaths as well. Suicides are irrelevant to the public safety question of homicides committed with guns. I very much doubt if intentional homicide by cutting or stabbing was being discussed, you would want to include suicides and accident.
While tragic, suicides have no place in a discussion of intentional homicides.
There are several things that we can do that will reduce gun deaths. There is low hanging fruit of accidental death and suicide. That we can focus on first by requiring training and licensure to reduce accidental deaths and strengthening support for mental health access and emergency intervention for suicidal ideation.
That would work to lower gun deaths.
That is ultimately what is going to happen.Just let it go. Its the America we are going to have to deal with.
When have I advocated "Gun Control"?Then you're admitting that gun control isn't the answer to suicide prevention.
evidently, desantis wants his events to be the same.Impossible, that's a "gun free zone."
Reference bold:Having a gun in house increases the risk of death inside that house.
I am not a gun abolitionist... but the idea that any slight inconvenience that is imposed that reduces gun deaths overall is an assault on Liberty is simply stupid.
There is no evidence you can provide that supports the claims you made, because you are factually incorrect. You proved yourself wrong in your first chart regarding firearm deaths. The claim "firearms are the leading cause of death in children" is factually incorrect because the dataset you use to make that statement excludes some children (those under 1) and includes adults as children (18 and 19 year olds).I will take note that there is no evidence that will be accepted.
You don't consider those a part of gun control? Strange so many anti gun extremists advocate those measures as part of "common sense gun control".When have I advocated "Gun Control"?
I have advocated mandatory training, licensure and registration.
dude. you literally came into this thread talking about knives. why not bathtubs??said nobody ever
anti-gun people keep jumping to that over and over and NOBODY has ever said "lets have no laws"
like ... ever ......... so why do you do that? I'm curious? just like a hysterical thing you can't help doing to illogically talk about an issue or is it to knee jerk other anti-gun people into an emotional frenzy or ?? ?
no it doesn'tHaving a gun in house increases the risk of death inside that house.
When those inconveniences are unconstitutional, unenforceable and completely ineffective, whats the point?I am not a gun abolitionist... but the idea that any slight inconvenience that is imposed that reduces gun deaths overall is an assault on Liberty is simply stupid.
It has been studied for quite a while. Having a gun in the house increases the risk of gun deaths both suicide and homicide.... mostly domestic violence.Reference bold:
Insignificantly, if at all.

You can not show a causal link at all. At best, you have a very loose correlation.It has been studied for quite a while. Having a gun in the house increases the risk of gun deaths both suicide and homicide.... mostly domestic violence.
People are free to own guns. It is your right to.
But the risks are there.
It could affect homicides in domestic disputes... but for random or criminal violence likely not at all.You don't consider those a part of gun control? Strange so many anti gun extremists advocate those measures as part of "common sense gun control".
How will those affect deliberate homicides?
You see what I mean?no it doesn't

Thoughts and prayers.mass shooting
arguing
nothing changes
mass shooting
I don’t know. I’m only speculatingSo was the recent shooting in Monterey a guy trying to go after kids by shooting their parents?
that you constantly make factually incorrect statements? Yes, I've pointed that out already.You see what I mean?
why should I suffer any sort of inconvenience, when that inconvenience is unconstitutional, unenforceable and completely ineffective? That is a serious question. Why do you think I should accept that?When any minor incovenience is seen as an assault on Liberty I just can't take that person seriously.
It could affect homicides in domestic disputes... but for random or criminal violence likely not at all.
For curbing guns getting into the hand of criminals I think it will take making the gun maufacturers take responsibility for selling their wares into a market where they end up in the hands of criminals.... but that is never going to happen.
But that wasn't the point I was making now was it?
How would you even calculate that? Seriously... .if we can't rely on studies and statistical analysis then I guess we can't rely on anything.Not true, and I don't care what some amalgamation of data purporting to represent probabilities indicates. Unless you believe every household has the exact same chance of of suicide or homicide, your premise is fallacious.
