"In 2015, for instance, a law was passed allowing Kansas residents to carry a concealed firearm without a permit or training." I could likely find more (education, social services, etc.), but well, i don't think i need to look further after that.

Guns equal violence now?

  Haha, yes?

So you're suggesting that posession of guns increases the frequency of hate crimes? Source?
- Mithaldu 10y ago
  Sorry i wasn't more clear: Gun possession increases the frequency of deaths due to terrorist attacks.

    And you're more likely to die to shark attacks than to terrorist attacks, even before redefining the word "terrorist". Are you sure you want to stick with this argument?
    - Mithaldu 10y ago
      Sure, especially given Kansas doesn't have to worry about shark attacks due to low amounts of sharks within its borders, but should worry about guns due to the absolutely preposterous amounts of them within its borders.

      Basic physics. Guns make it easier to achieve death of others. All other things being equal, less guns = less deaths, more guns = more deaths. Kansas makes it worse by not even pretending to restrict guns to anyone of any mental disposition.
      - Sir_Cmpwn 10y ago
        It might make it easier, but that isn't evidence to suggest it makes people more likely to do it. A sufficiently motivated person could kill someone with any number of means. You still haven't tied more guns to more terrorist attacks.
        Mithaldu 10y ago
        That's not the argument i'm making, and i feel i stated it perfectly clearly in the earlier post.
        Sir_Cmpwn 10y ago
        You're suggesting that Kansas is at fault for not taking measures to prevent terrorist attacks. When asked to elaborate, you said that their gun laws are to blame. I asked you to correlate increased gun ownership to increased terrorist attacks. You can't, and your argument is bollocks.
        Mithaldu 10y ago
        That is not the argument I made and you continuing to attribute that to me is bad faith. Please review: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13723962 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13723962 vvv E: holy shit, your willingness to be absurd about this is mind-boggling, especially when you ask for source for a thing i already linked. further engagement with you is a waste of everyone else's time. and yes, at this point i mean to be unkind to you, since you're just trolling, not expressing fear in response to a murder vvv
