Things like ShotSpotter are only fighting the symptoms. As an european I find it ridiculus to hear that such thing even exists. Why would we not simply ban the guns themselves?
- dudus 3y agoAmericans love guns more than freedom.
- pizzafeelsright 3y agoGuns maintain freedom.
- AvocadoPanic 3y agoThe criminal element largely responsible for gun crime would criminally ignore the ban. They're already shooting people. The US shares a 3,145 kilometer long border with Mexico, unfortunately there are at best 1,044 km of border 'barriers' in place. People, guns, money and drugs are smuggled across the border daily.
- Eextra953 3y agoGuns aren't smuggled in from the Southern border. If anything guns are smuggled out of the USA into mexico, how do you think the cartels get their guns?
- AvocadoPanic 3y agoGuns in bulk are smuggled south, guns come north with criminals. You can see this in the seizure stats. In the context of banning guns, any movement north is too much.
- Tabular-Iceberg 3y agoHow do you propose fighting the cause? I have nothing in principle against a society that completely bans guns, but are you prepared to strike enough terror into the population that breaking the law and getting guns anyway becomes unthinkable?
