I think I'll regard your claim that firearms commit crimes as the baby talk it is.
failRope violence
Airplane violence
Knife violence
Motor vehicle violence
"Racial violence" indicates violence inflicted on the basis of the racism of the violent person. "Racial" is not a noun.
"Gun violence" indicates conflating suicide, homicide, and accidents as if they are all the same thing, with the same cause and the same political remedy. At bottom, it's baby talk. You'll often hear the people mewling about "gun violence" also say that guns commit crimes.

Your fortune cookie says: "Learn about measures to reduce suicide and stop making infantile comments"I don't think you've convinced anyone that guns commit crimes. Did the Gun Control Industry fail you, or are you failing it?
There is no such thing as firearm violence. Inanimate objects can’t commit acts.Name the adjective and the noun in these phrases:
airplane travel
car accident
knife wound
racial violence
firearm violence

Understanding Firearms and Suicide Prevention
Firearms are involved in over 50% of all suicides in the U.S., and AFSP is leading the effort to educate firearm owners to prevent this leading cause of death. Suicide also accounts for most firearm deaths in the U.S.afsp.org
Measures to reduce suicide have to do with helping people get the mental health care they need. Making the means to which someone would do this illegal doesn't stop anything I doubt you're worried about a fine if you're ready to put a gun to your head.Your fortune cookie says: "Learn about measures to reduce suicide and stop making infantile comments"

You're one to talk your entire argument is based on baby talkYou should file that statement under "Things I should have learned"
First I am not too concerned with the thought process of someone choosing to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.Into my 30s I was self-medicating for Bipolar Disorder with alcohol and drugs. I did many incredibly stupid and dangerous things. I visited places that were not exactly safe.And I was in frequent contact with ex-cons, soon-to-be cons, gang members, South American coke dealers, also gentlemen from Harlem, Spanish Harlem, Washington Heights, Trenton, Camden, Newark, etc.
Never once in all that time did I think having a gun would make me safer or improve my chances of survival. I knew some of these people had guns, but I never saw a gun and was never threatened with a gun. They knew I wasn't strapped... I just wanted to trade money for drugs. I got ripped off a few times, not many. But I never felt my life was threatened.
I think this is because of the gun laws in NY and NJ. Honest citizens can buy and own guns in NJ and NY. But you get a background check and need permits. The laws for carrying a guns illegally are almost Draconian. The system works fine. Just check the violent gun crime stats compared to other states.
More BS and lies.Yup, in the U.S. Some other court, hopefully, will interpret the Constitution differently. AND if such ever occurs, the bleating from the Right will be staggering. Everyone applauds a court's ruling when it suits them, but if a court rules otherwise, the applauders become complainers.
By here is a finer point: Just because you can, ask yourself why you HAVE TO? I am allowed to drive a big truck also. I choose not too. I can hoard my money and never give to charity. But I opt to not think that way. I have the "right" to be a bigot and call black people the N word, and that is protected speech, but I would never do so. You might not believe this, but I actually know some hunters. NONE of them own a AK-15. That is the truth. NOT ONE. If you need an AK-15 to shoot game then you aren't really a hunter, just a wannabee one.
Reality isn’t going to go away just because it hurts your feelings.
Firearms are irrelevant to suicide rates.Your fortune cookie says: "Learn about measures to reduce suicide and stop making infantile comments"

Do you have pointed out that Japan has a higher suicide rate than the US but gun ownership is very uncommon there.Firearms are irrelevant to suicide rates.
An even bigger riot is how butt hurt Canadians get when they have reality pointed out to them.Your credentials on Canadian law and traditions is vaporous.
I like to copy this shit and publish it as humor on other sites. Truly it is ****ing out of this world in the stupidity department
Americans are a ****ing riot!
Fail...There is no such thing as firearm violence. Inanimate objects can’t commit acts.
Present your evidence to support that opinion.Firearms are irrelevant to suicide rates.
You really on baby talk.Fail...
It's already been presented you are just obstinate.Present your evidence to support that opinion.
Reality. We’ve been over this.Fail...
I haven’t offered an opinion.Present your evidence to support that opinion.
What suicide rate would Japan have if they had American access to firearms?I haven’t offered an opinion.
Japan has no private ownership of firearms. Their suicide rate dwarfs the US rate.
You do not seem to have a very good grasp of data or understand how to formulate a persuasive argument.It's already been presented you are just obstinate.
But I'll go ahead and do it again.
The survive rate in Japan is higher than in the US despite ownership of guns being extremely lower.
Firearms are irrelevant to suicide rates.What suicide rate would Japan have if they had American access to firearms?
Because it’s a meaningless question. We’ve been over this many times. Why do you think circling back to previously curb stomped arguments will somehow change the fact you’ve been refuted?That is the question you fail to understand as central to your imperfect "evidence".
