He says he is not an American but he IS a human being and therefore has a right to say something.
kay becker Agreed! And he's a father, which means he has the OBLIGATION to speak for the safety of his children.
But, hate speech can be defended by the rights of a human being thing.
Exactly! This is a common sense thing, not a nationality thing.
kay becker he does more for America than home grown ones
Tbh. If he lives there for 3 years now, he is American. But whatever.
Police are only minutes away when seconds count.
Did you know that when they finally arrive, that they have no legal obligation to protect you ???????

BoogalooBoy1776 but seconds won’t count if there are no guns
Mats James Right, because a knife doesn’t take seconds to use.
@@matsjames3626 You can't just delete guns from existence. Even if all forms of firearm were made totally illegal, criminals would still obtain them through illegal methods. It's better that law-abiding people have them, for when armed criminals inevitably attempt to harm people.

as a scot, itm was much safer and not one school shooting since.

You seem to be helpless in realising your politicians are puppets to big business, in this case the arms industry and NRA.
You're not only helpless, but desperate enough to believe a big business man, who spent all his life wallowing in the swamp was going to drain it.
If you really want freedom, change the lobbying laws.
Checking in from the future...
No. Nothing changed.
John Lynch Donald trump needs to get his head out of his fat ass and do something
Zak Varley Yeah, instead of blaming video games he should realise that the real problem is the US constitution itself.
Mysterious Muffin exactly but he doesn’t wanna do it, I don’t understand how people like him
Zak Varley Neither do I. I understand Americans want their freedom and all that, but I don’t understand why owning a gun means so much to them, even to the point where they endanger others for the sake of having one.
Mysterious Muffin I know, Americans have more gun shops than McDonald’s, supermarkets and Starbucks put together!! And they think they’re in danger from terrorists but they’re twice more likely to be killed by toddlers apparently!!
This was very well said..👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Bob Reavaer How dare the people who have suffered the most speak out. Clearly their suffering invalidates their ability to speak about it.
Bob Reavaer So when should they take action? In a few decades when the memories have faded away a little? Next month, after the government has done he whole “it’s not time to talk about it, let’s put it behind us” bullshit? How dare you suggest that these teenagers shouldn’t be raising their voices just because they may still be grieving, just because they are young? Maybe they aren’t perfectly educated in gun laws, but it doesn’t take an expert to know that the way things are right now needs to change and that no child or human being should have to look down the barrel of a gun and fear for their lives while they are simply trying to get an education, enjoy an event, walk down the street, or just live their life. There’s nothing unethical about “using” the kids in this segment. They put their faces out in the world knowing perfectly well what they were doing. And maybe they ARE still emotional, but they’ve made the decision to use that emotion in a positive and powerful way, telling the people who are supposed to be protecting us from this shit that they’re doing a really bad job. I think it’s admirable and brave, and I hope you can come see them in a better light as well.
No, people should do none of that. All people need to do is tell their employees (the government) to fix this shit. That's literally all the people need to do, just walk out into the street and say "Look, I don't care whether guns or mental health issues are the problem, just fix this shit because this is not how it's supposed to be. Something is very wrong, fix it!"
I'm absolutely baffled by the fact that Americans aren't out in the streets in droves to demand change, because you absolutely need it.
Edit: No one is using those kids, they put themselves out there. They are the only ones doing the sensinle thing EVERYONE of you should be doing; demand change. James and many others are just giving them a platform.
Bob Reavaer there is only one reaction that is appropriate and needed at this point and it’s for Americans to stop value their guns over the lives of the children of their country...
I’m not saying ban all guns that would never work but the UK has a great system that seems to work pretty well.
@Bob Reavaer: who in your opinion should talk about what happen, the people that where there and experienced that reality or the people that get paid by the NRA (that makes a lot of money selling these Guns)? Always come up the point of the freedom do have guns and the 2nd amendment, but what is with the freedom to live that got these children taken away? what is more important the freedom to live or the freedom to end a children's life? Also as the 2nd amendment was written these guns where not around. the 2nd amendment was written with gun like muskets, but not high power rifles than kills you instantly if you get hit by only 1 bullet of it. These gun are war weapon and do not belong in the hand of a civil person. And what give you the right to say that the children are not allowed to express their opinion about what happen to them? Where you there? Do you know what it means to fear for your live at a teenager in a school? I do not know why you think the way you do, please explain it.
2020 nothing has changed and it’s sad
Sophie Lennon yeah we need less gun laws it’s going to ruin our country first they take our guns then the rest of our rights
Ya it seems if you feel that way, ppl here just call you stupid! It’s such a adult conversation, I mean for the ppl that don’t have to call names to state how they feel
@Viktor Birkeland are you ok? You sound like you need a hug.
Viktor Birkeland stop mucking around and have a cuppa tea love
@Viktor Birkeland mass shootings are bad, but I would not think about taking away someone else's right to defend themselves. That's just wrong. The issue shouldn't be banning guns, it should be helping the mentally unstable people who are doing these shootings
We have mass shootings here, every day now! It’s the new norm.
And it’s fucking sad and disgusting 😡😡
The guns laws in Japan are basically perfect.
Pimp 6972 so are their immigration laws
There's one big difference. Japan has let their people own guns for 200 years. There's not that many of them in Japan. So they can control it. America has opened the flood gates for the last 200 years. So laws like that would make zero difference in the US.
I was going to say the same thing Thomas. I got way too many criminals in my neighborhood that have them. How do we get a handle on them first? I'm open to go to a class every year or 3 to get a license. Just what do we do for the bullshit that already happened for so long.
foxhound13 guess what no matter what laws pass criminals will still have them. Criminals are criminals because they don't obey any laws. Our justice system is way out of order letting these criminals out on parole way too early especially for violent crimes. Were going to have to change our justice system and good people everyday carrying firearms to protect themselves.
Thomas Carpenter we used to own slaves. Slaves were part of culture. People fought to keep slaves until it was realised that it was inhumane. Every rational people can make the connection between guns and mass shootings. Don’t cite population because India has a far larger population than the USA and they have far less mass shootings than the USA. Tradition doesn’t matter. A child’s right to go to school, a person’s right to go to church, a young man’s right to go to a club without the fear of dying from a gunman is far more important than tradition or a right to bear arms. Simple
Makes a lot of sense, laws are man made, and can be changed.
Jenny Purcell government is man made and it changes all the time because of people. For better or worse.
One should not put so much faith in something that is ever so changing like government because one day the laws are working for you. And next with a swipe of a pen. Terms are changed and now your on the receiving end of the law.
The constitution is not man made laws. They are rights hence being called the bill of rights. Which an individual regardless of man made laws can practice or use.
For example everyone has the right to speak their mind and voice their opinions. Hence the right to free speech. This constitution makes sure the government has no power over an individual when it comes to voicing their opinion. If the government limited what can be said or what people can say about politicians or the leader of our country. That would a violation of the individual's right.
For guns it's simple. We the people. Mostly able body men and women of 18+ years old. Are the militia. A militias responsibility is to be the minutemen when a crisis occurs like terrorist or tyrannical government foreign and domestic, to protect and fight back in a minutes notice. That's what going to range and practicing shooting weapons of different types is at its core. Even buying and keeping guns is part of arming ourselves as a militia to ensure the freedom and protection of future generations. Then passing down the responsibility to our kids so they don't have to relia on others like the government.
If the government limited what can be bought then it makes it harder to defend ourselves from over powering governments and no government like that will give back the people's right. That's why once you lose a right. It's gone forever.
Forge of the Dragon it also enables mass shootings, as James said we(UK) haven't had a mass shooting for 22 years, we have freedom of speech too, you can do both, your constitution was drawn up by man, a looooong time ago, times change, so should laws.
Deez Nuts chraming, maybe because I have better morals than you, and respect for human life, in ANY country, moron.
SUPERMAN you carry on defending your right to bear arms, and this will carry on.
I'm sorry to hit you in your sore spot, but how exactly did you still possessing guns prevent 9/11, pray tell?

@Salty Prepper why would they want to take over?
@@lordfoxgamingyt5579 Germany wanted to disarm jews in germany and that was before hitler was in power. And the french resistance was armed by the military because the germans had a stronger military. Look at now though a bunch of shooting we need to ban military style weapons we dont need that for self defense handguns are good enough.
@@lordfoxgamingyt5579 look the government is not going to take us over. So you would rather have mass shooting every year because you dont want to ban military style weapons because the government is going to take us over. The u.s. would collapse if it took us over who would fight for it? What you said is just silly.
@@lordfoxgamingyt5579 First of all, why would the US government want to take over America even though they already manage the country. Second of all, why would you need a gun if the government is managed and challenged when needed and the president can get voted out if he does not run for the people. Evolution is the reason why we as humans no longer need to climb trees and avoid predators, it's the reason we no longer feel as big of a thirst for conquest and the reason why we learn from out mistakes. The rest of the world is laughing at people like you all over america and can't wrap our head around your conspiracies and why so many Americans believe they will be attacked. First it was terrorists and now that you can no longer use that excuse you have to rely on conspiracies. Just stop and think about the real reason you want guns and just accept that it's not a good reason. It's time to put away your guns and stop the deaths of innocent children.
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither Liberty nor safety"
-Benjamin Franklin
There are laws. You don't do what you want, you do what you must. If not, it's an anarchy. Pray, so that one day, it wont be your family being shot.
I never suggested anarchy and I am aware that there are laws. I was just quoting Benjamin Franklin saying that people who would give up essential rights and freedoms for "safety" deserve neither
""Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither Liberty nor safety""
And yet there are nations with effective gun restrictions who outrank the US in EVERY freedom index. Liberty AND safety, it can be done.
@@theusercreator5978 And what do you consider "essential rights"?
@@ratofvengence I never claimed that the US is the most free country, which mostly has to due with our rule of law. Switzerland, which ranks very high on most freedom indexes has almost identical firearm ownership laws to the US, what i mean is that there are MANY other factors when ranking countries. Nonetheless my point is, like I said before, if someone gives up these rights for safety shouldn't have either. That was all that I was trying to say.
I am not an American citizen, but I am sad to say that when I saw the news about what happened in Florida, I was not surprised. I hate to say it, but I saw the headline for the story and thought nothing of it. Yes, I was heartbroken that more children were killed in a place where they should never fear for their own life. But when I saw the headline all I could think was "just a regular day in America". It has gotten to the point for me where I recognize mass shootings in America like this as a normal thing... Almost like it is a trend. It should never be that way.
I firmly believe that nothing will change. If the gun laws didn't change after Columbine or Sandy Hook, then they will never change.
I am from Vancouver, in Canada, and I can tell you that I am not the only person who feels this way. The news about what happened in Parkland was the talk of my high school. We had debates in classes about what we think should happen next. CANADIAN TEENAGERS care more about the well being and safety of American children then their own country does.
America, please get your head out of you ass. Sort our your priorities. Enough children have been slaughtered. How many more have to die before you do something about this?
EDIT: I also think that it is stupid that American's think that James and Trevor Noah do not deserve to give their opinions on these tragic mass shootings just because they are not American themselves. I think that James and Trevor and myself, being foreigners, have every right to speak up. Foreigners speaking up about your screwed up system should be a MASSIVE SIGN that you really have a problem. If people like myself take the time our of their day to express their anger and concern over the gun laws in America, then the problem is extremely serious. Us foreigners care. We do. We do not want to sit idly when we know that our voicing our opinions may do something. I refuse to be a bystander.
Sadly I did the same thing as you. I actually scrolled past the news on my phone the first day as it was just more of the same news form America. It is a really sad state to be in.
Same here, I'm from Sweden and it obviously broke my heart that innocent children were hurt and lost their lives but I wasn't even slightly surprised. It's more surprising nowadays when a week passes without a mass shooting....
Fanny I want to move to your country it's beautiful ! I don't feel safe in America at all, and just the thought of raising a family here is horrible I would never trust they are safe here.
Jade West I AGREE...but like you said NOTHING WAS DONE THEN WHEN COLUMBINE HAPPENED AND NOTHING WILL GET DONE NOW...It is a vicious cicle
Well, dont go to Sweden then. That country is already overrun by muslim immigrants in ghettos in cities where even the police is afraid to go in. Sure you can go to the country side, but then you can better stay in the USA and move there to the country side.

It took a pandemic for no school shootings in the month of March.

@Cha cha real smooth people die from shootings every second that's a damn lie and matter of facr people are starting to shoot people for no reason or because its fun and they just hate the person and its not self defense at all
@Cha cha real smooth so why do they have guns at all? When someone is mentally ill they shouldn't be able to get a gun because they are (often) not able to control themselves. These "accidents" should never happen in a country like the USA
statistically gun homiacides are at an all time low
In Japan a gunshot ending in a wall would make the news, even if there are no casualties.

How about you ask me to explain before you rule it out?
The white man got to America. I don't know how the white man was received by the native. But it would have been a good thing if the native had learned to fear and hate whites a bit more. Think about it, merely coming in contact with the white man killed millions of natives infected with the cold virus, small pucks, and other viruses the natives where not equipped to fight against.
There are also countless examples of one race moving into an other race to enslave it, all throughout history.
When the Africans boarded the shores of India, or when the westerners boarded the shores of Africa, it would have been a good idea not to deal with those who intend to enslave them.
Man is a tribal animal that seeks to gather up with others who look them himself. There is a good evolutionary reason for that.
Besides, if you look at all the multi-cultural places on the planet, those places are almost always the most violent places you can be at.
I am white. I don't think that Asians, blacks, or Muslims are innerently bad, or anything of the sort. But I do think that not only good things can come out of trying to mix different cultures, different values, and religions into the same place.
@@jammo6645
Okay.
I don't think that my westerner values are any better or worst than other set of values from Africa, Asia, or the ME.
But we all have different sets of values. And when you mix up different people with difderent values, friction almost always occurs.
The westerners are disgusted with the way Islam treats women. That might work for them, but not so well in the western world.
The Muslims are also disgusted with the west oversexualuzation of everything. That might work for the west, but not so much with the Muslims.
Trying to fuse those diverging values can only create friction and violence.
An old saying says that when in Rome, act like Romans. But unfortunately, we are told that such a simple saying is now racist and intolerable.
You blame the gun in a shooting but blame the person in an over dose
That’s because the person who overdosed didn’t go into school and dump a load of drugs into the water supply to take all the kids with them. Although I don’t think the victim is to blame for an overdose either.
Where's he blaming the gun? It's letting any fool have unfettered access to guns that enables these events.

C J exactly
*A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.*
"The right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."
It's The People who form the Militia. Not the Federal/State Government, but The People. The Government is no longer The People, it hasn't been since the Federalist have taken over long ago. Therefore, The People are in charge of the Militia. The weapons are for the insurance that myself and my community are protected in more ways than just against criminals. It's also to protect us from the Government. For defense against the Government, the words, "Being necessary to the security of a free State," comes to mind. So long as the Government begins to impose restrictions on the kinds of guns (The assault weapons ban is passable, since fully automatic fire isn't exactly necessary.) people will surely be fed up.
The murder of children is unfortunate, but Freedom isn't the safest form of society. It saddens me, but it's not enough for me to willingly become a sheep lead by hungry wolves.
Sure is a right but it says well regulated meaning we can adjust and tinker until we get a sense of real normalcy.
mike garcia
The People form and regulate the Militia, not the Government. There's the issue. The Government isn't of The People at the current moment. Haven't been for a long time.

Rookie Ranger Always some dumb ass second amendment clowns commenting in these threads good luck fighting the army with their plains and tanks!
But he has a point, we need to show actions not words.
Danielys Muñoz actions won't happen without words first. Enough people need to speak up so they are finally heard so that actions will finally be taken.
yana schmiedel we have been speaking up, that's why we still have our second amendment. We need armed security, obviously... Did everyone see how relieved the kids were when the police got to their classroom? Why were they relieved? Go on, I'll wait...
Sharon Murphy lol. They’re relieved because police means that they’re save, there’s is no one who can hurt them. This school actually had an armed Secruityman, but what can one man do against an automatic gun? You can’t stop guns with guns, that would just cost more lives but you can safe lives with no guns. You Americans can still have your second amendment, but you need to control your gun sales. Just do it like Japan, maybe not that strict but if you’re able to pass these test there and follow the rules there would be less shootings. It’s not that you ban alle the guns you more ban the people on buying guns who shouldn’t have guns in the first place
If you look at statistics knives kill 4x any automatic/bump stock weapon per year so his point is actually BONELESS
Did you hear about the most recent school shooting, an armed resource officer shot the attacker, but not before he killed an innocent girl. They will never prevent lives from being taken away.

Most of those estimates are based on surveys of someone having the perception that a crime may have been prevented. See the difference now?

Generation Z so you have permission to carry a firearm in public or can get to a your safe to get hold of you gun when startled in the night. I think anyone intentionally wants to murder you they would do it without you even knowing.
I’m proud to be British, where I don’t have to worry about carrying a weapon incase someone wants murder me on the street because our murder rate per capita is 4 times lower. Where my children can go to school without fearing for their lives.

If gun control infringes on 'liberty', what does being shot and killed infringe on? Doesn't the word 'life' precede the word 'liberty' in the declaration of independence?
You know liberty means ability right? So how is it fair for 1 person to have the 'ability' to deprive anybody of life when they are having a bad day? Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, ?
It's not complicated: having the ability to deprive someone of life or liberty is not the same thing as actually depriving someone of life or liberty. The latter can justify locking a human in a cage, the former does not. If you want to advocate locking humans in cages for merely having the "ability" to commit a violent crime, at least have the balls to say so instead of pretending to be so confused.
@ Alan, Ability as in Freedom to do so... Not ability as in physical ability or otherwise. In other words, you have the right to life and liberty/pursuit of happiness. However so do I, so if I claim my right to 'liberty/ability' allows me to buy an AR-15 and walk into a public space and shoot everybody it creates a paradox doesn't it? Why don't they sell hand grenades or RPG's? What if I want to go fishing using a grenade? Or hunting using an RPG? Why deny me the ability to do those things?
@Fatnorth, That's insane though. The 'A' in AR-15 stands for assault. Which is the opposite of defend/protect. That is the core of the issue. Having an M240 Bravo, a weapon designed to suppress enemy fire by laying down a wall of led in the name of home security is crazy talk. Much less the fact that having such a weapon on the streets of our country for civilian use has no realistic purpose. Same for hand grenades and anti-tank weapon systems etc. Who on earth has such threats on their life that would justify or require such weapons as a means of defense?
The military trains you in the use of such weapons for the direct purpose of using them in defense of the country. The government tyranny angle doesn't hold much water in my opinion. I don't think that our military made up of volunteers would suddenly take up arms against the population, or that if it did, owning a weapon used in the military would save anybody if they did. If you're in a house with a machine gun trying to fend of the government, a drone would just drop a guided missile into the living room.

Gtfo this is a serious issue.
In my country there's no known mass shootings in school because for us education is the utmost important thing. I've gotten through grade school to college not having to think about doing an active shooter drill because the chances of having an active shooter storm a school is so slim, and I live in a third world country and we have prevented those things to happen. Imagine a great nation with all the resources and the power to change a law so quickly, I hope america sees that as an opportunity to make their country safe not just for tourists but especially to the ones living there.
I know this is old but I went through school just fine never had any problems an never was worried. The media is just hype
In 1774 England banned guns/gunpowder in the 13 American colonies. Attempted gun confiscation by 8-900 English soldiers in Concord & Lexington Mass. on April 19 1775 started that 8 year war for independence & England almost won that war in 1783!! Guns were temporary confiscated at times in colonial America (1607-1776)!!
Well until gangs across the street from my house puts down their guns. I ain't puttin down mines.
Amen brother
Make it illegal, report them and then get rid of both of your guns. Easy solve
@@TheGukos they are already illegally posesing them as they are already not registered or stolen and you cannot cary a sbr in the open and shot into a gas station. We reported them since 2007 but the FBI, atf and police doesnt do Jack shit about it. Was in 4 shootings this year already.
The last shooting I was in was at a gas station. The cops never showed up. The same guys live on the same block. Cops never showed up there either. Last guy that got caught reporting them was killed in his own home by ilegall gun use. I mean it is already illegal to break into someone's home and shootn em. Gangs dont follow laws. Stay safe and stay armed.
@@acetech8642 Then make laws that prevents them to get (new) guns and munition. Then you don´t need cops.
@@TheGukos it is already against the law to purchase the firearms they have. They been buy guns illegally since 2007. They have automatic long guns, sbrs and they even conceal carry shotguns short barrels without a concral carry permit. Also you are not slwowdd to conceal carry a shotgun in our area yet they use those a lot.
I live in Detroit. In detroit you're not allowed to carry a sbr in a gun free zone. You are also not allowed to buy a firearm if you are a felon or have a felony or any mental incarceration on you record. They don't legally buy thier guns so no law is gonna stop em.
Like I said earlier it is already ilegall to kill someone without a cause yet they do it everyday. Laws dont stop criminals. Stay safe and stay aremd.

@TJ 2019 You're oblivious to the point i was trying to get across... We can pronounce H's just fine but you see America is alot bigger than the UK. You're roughly the size of Florida(a bit bigger) we have so many different dialects that if you take a man from southern Louisiana with that french cajon accent and have him talk with a guy from say Michigan, they will have a pretty tough time understanding eachother. However they still do.. Just because they speak in different dialects, it's still the same language. Also notice how I'm keeping this civil, something i would expect from a Brit but i guess my expectations were too high...

U.K: Gun deaths in America are absolutely unacceptable!
U.K knife deaths: am I a joke to you?
To be fair, I'd rather get stabbed than get shot.
I get that you are speaking about deaths and that the result is pretty much the same, but you can still fight back against a knife, and you know who did it and most of the times why.
Guns are less personal, you cant defend yourself and the shooter might not even feel like he/she is actually hitting you.
Can't have a mass stabbing lmao
Lola Lo then you’re an absolute idiot. Knife wounds are always more traumatic than a violent wound. Blades do far more damage in a real world attack.
No, you can’t fight back against a knife with nothing. This isn’t the movies kiddo. There is only one thing that’s certain in a knife fight, LOTS of blood. You have zero understanding of what you are talking about.

@@Dero_milsurp "No, you can’t fight back against a knife with nothing."
Oh dear. You've never heard of running away? Probably not, it's not much use against a bullet. What about improvised weapons? Again, probably not, you'd have to hope the gun armed assailant is kind enough to get close, like a man with a knife would have to do.
Try thinking about it for a few minutes before replying. Though, I'm betting any reply will show you didn't :D
A very thoughtful message. This is about what is the right thing to do. Don't let greed and pride to prevent the right thing to be done.
indeed. Will have to get rid of the republicans for that to happen though.
summercherry123 You need to think before typing, the message James gave out is total nonsense, the chart he gave out, no proof, no analysis. The proof of other countries, well, they're smaller, less people, less immigrants, less criminals, less needs of a gun, crimes are committed by criminals, not object, obviously James and Hollywood phonys never think about what would happened if guns aren't allowed, robbery, revenge killing, murder could be committed without any significant defense, freedom also includes free to defense.
Mark Armage You have to think long-term not short-term. All of these side-effects of anti-gun law that you listed will decrease eventually, let's say if gun control runs efficiently. The problem now is that crazy people are able to get deadly weapons like assault rifles easily in USA. School shootings have already become a normal thing in USA. Stricter gun control will make these nutjobs harder to get guns, which definitely decreases school massacre/fatalities.
MC Roy though i agree getting weapons in general out of the hands of nutjobs. But the evidence that someone is a nut job is scarce. Plus 2.5 million a year have used guns in self defense and 91 percent of the time the gun was never fired a single bullet.
Now there is no such thing as an assault rifle. It's just a rifle that has a semi auto function. Which the vast majority of guns on the market are semi auto.
You say that overtime side effects would just go away well that is actually very incorrect. UK was just been doing lots of gun control for decades now is actually considered the third most violent country within the UN. Yes the UK does not have as much gun related crime but the UK is also a very much smaller country than America because America is the third largest country in the world and the fact that UK after implementing so many gun control regulations still have around 16 million illegally possessed guns. Plus the fact that the UK has even had such trouble with knife crimes that they ban knives from being carried in public and even banned many different types of knives. Even a UK University study has proven with the statistics from both the UK and America that the UK is a much more violent place in America because criminals are still out there committing crimes on a daily basis even more so than they ever did after gun control.
For humanity and this planet to survive in the long run, we need to get rid of conservatism in any shape or form. This regressive thinking has separated people for decades if not centuries and will be responsible for our planet dying in about 200 years if we don't abolish conservatism.
It makes me sad and mad because at my school there was a shooting and no one talked about it and to make change happen alot more people had to get hurt just to heard. It's just not right.
this is maybe one of the sadest thing about gun shooting in America - it has to be a big "event" becuase the smalls ones are just "regular"
(I should add that I'm not from the U.S)

Thank you for presenting facts in a calm and logical manner. I'm a gun owner and this is the first time I've listen to someone speak about their opinions without screaming and yelling. To often we seem to go to completely different corners about subjects instead of meeting in the middle and discussing it like logical and intelligent adults.
Just imagine. We are here after 4 years. We just witnessed another mass shooting, the biggest since 2012. It just saddens me that the country which calls itself the forefront of civilization has no control on guns. It lets its people die because firearm companies are making their money and people can slap "liberty" on the face of people who discourage guns.
Facts? To say there has not been a mass shooting in Australia since Port Arthur is pure undiluted BS
None of these were "facts". At best they are unintentional lies by omition and at worst they are intentional lies period.
Calm manner, yes. Logical? No. This guy and/or his team cherry picked countries to put on that graph. What matters is per capita 'Mass shootings" vs civilian ownership, which is carefully omitted from this graph for most relevant countries.
Conversely, taking this chart at face value, we can by extension use the same logic in another application: we have An increased chance of drowning if there is a pool in your backyard. There are 11 unintentional drowning deaths per day. WE MUST MARCH!
Per mass shootings, we have 32 deaths this year. (Yes, this guy is specifically talking about mass shootings to envoke an emotional response/argument to bypass the more serious (And largely Democratic controlled ) non-suicide gun epidemic. So we're going to do the same with our "stats".
So far, that amounts to 0.16 deaths per day from mass shootings. Even at the peak of mass shooting deaths annually, ever, in the US (2021) comes out to .28 deaths per day.
So yeah....if you want to march and quote stats specifically about mass shootings, go ahead, but your efforts are used FAR better elsewhere and your stats are easy to trivialize.

Handload your own ammo. I suggest you learn wheel weight + lead-tin
solder alloying. Stock up on wheel weights. Stock up on propellants.
Stock up on primers and casings. Pick up your brass and refurbish them
on your loading bench. Careful handloading (reloading) will produce
ammo every bit as good as factory loads. We already face restrictive
gun owners' control. You have to be a living angel to own a gun and
purchase ammunition. One loud shouting match with the old lady and your
gun rights are kaput. Not to worry about gun ban, worry about ammo ban.
The Government knows banning guns is futile; banning ammo will be
effective. Learn handloading and stock up the supplies needed to make
10,000 rounds for you and your buddies.
A living angel to own a gun?

Think, pal. Why is it relevant, your kids are human, too. They face the same risk as a normal living individual. If there's a truck that ran into a school, parents can't ban trucks.
You can't ban trucks but you can make it harder for that to happen again. If that was a valid argument people would be able to drink and drive just fine , because why make laws that make bad things harder ? Just liberate everything then . I don't see a lot of people saying they want to ban all guns, they want to ban some types of guns , make it harder for people to be able to purchase guns and better mental health care.

I agree just because me and my family can from a different country doesn’t mean we can’t speak or it’s okay for us to let others or even ourselves experience what those kids in Florida went through or all of the other school shootings.

James Corden; Let's forget all the haters. In my book, you are first class all the way
I'm a hater because I don't agree.
I'm not American but I am a gun owner.
In my country in the last 25 years we more than quadrupled our gun ownership rate. And during that same time, the murder rate, and crime rate dropped by 40%.
I'm not saying that the guns are causing the drop in crime and murder. Unlike most here, I understand that correlation and causation are two different things.
But if guns cause crime and murder, why are we seeing the opposite?
Same thing in the USA.They more than doubled their gun ownership rate in the last 25 years. The number of carry permits almost quadrupled starting at 3.5 million in 2008 to 13.5 million in 2015.
Yet the US crime rate and murder rate have dropped more than 50% in the same 25 years.
If guns cause crime, why are we seeing the reverse happening in Canada and the USA?
The Turkey Talker
Duh! Murder is illegal. We just need to make murder with a gun even more illegal.
And of course if we make guns illegal, killers will have more trouble getting a gun. Look at how well it worked with drug laws making it harder for drug dealers to......hmmmm. ...never mind.
I can't be a hater because I have no idea who the guy is. So I have to focus strictly on what he says. And I don't like the bullshit that spews out of that guy.
Onboard Basil
In the USA rifles are involved in less than 1% of the homicides.
And by rifles, I mean both the scary assault ones and the not so scary ones combined. If you want to look strictly at the scary assault rifles, the statistic would be even lower.
The overwhelming majority of gun homicides are done with a handgun or sawed off shotgun. Rifles are just too bulky and too hard to conceal.
It is pretty interesting when you consider that the AR-15 is what you would describe as a scary black large caliber millitary assault rifle. It's also the most popular and iconic gun in the USA. Every gun owner I know owns at least one AR-15.
Yet it is involved in less than 1% of all the homicides.
So why are you so concerned with assault rifles? Because they look scary?

@Alt Fit
No higher than the knife crime in america. Compare New York to London in 2018. (both with estimated pop between 8-9 million, London being higher of the two)
The NYPD murder total for the year was 295. In London, there were 136, giving a rate of 1.5, so New York remains twice as deadly.
Within this, there were 76 homicides attributed to cutting or stabbing in New York - the exact same number as in London, according to data from Murdermap.
I don't know why gun loving americans always resort to this argument being completely ignorant to actual statistics. Our knifecrime is no worse than yours, we just don't have guns ontop of that.
@Alt Fit Got to love that xenophobia! Most knife crime in the uk is perpetrated by gangs based in highly populated areas such as London, whose members are born and raised in the uk...got nothing to do with immigration m8. And I'd much rather someone tried to break into my school with a knife than a gun, because I know FOR A FACT that there would be far less casualties, if any at all. You hear of mass shootings every few months in the usa, yet strangely enough, I've never heard of a mass stabbing...
Jesus. Sorry, hearing first hand about the drills 'make you think..
@Alt Fit So you freely admit to your xenophobia?! Lmao. This is laughable , notice how you were unable to refute any of my comments about the scale of destruction caused by guns vs knives, and instead continue to broadcast your blatant racism to the internet "LOL @ born & bred. They ain't white pal" I wasn't aware that skin colour was the only factor that determines nationality! Please continue though, I wouldn't want anyone to miss out on such level-headed and knowledgeable commentary.
Let's get real, in the usa this year as of Dec 1st, the 335th day of the year, there have been 385 mass shootings (any incident in which at least four people are shot, excluding the shooter).
That's more shootings, not individual deaths, but MASS SHOOTINGS, than there are days in the year. In the uk there have been 155 individual gun deaths if you include EVERY SINGLE DEATH regardless of motivation or circumstance e.g suicide, police etc. Nobody is denying that the knife crime rates in the uk are terrible, but we are owning up to that fact and trying to fix it, just like everybody in the usa is with gun crime!! Oh wait...
@Alt Fit So your logic is that guns are ok because knifes kill more people and that most of them aren't white(the last part is pretty good fake news btw).
"there hasn't been a mass shooting since!!", there wasn't a mass shooting before either !!!

I never understood why Americans are so attach to their constitution. 2nd amendment pff pls. Yeah sure those constitutions used to work perfectly on the late 1700s not now you guys need to update your constitution. Also even Bejamin franklin also said that the are laws are only meant to be kept in certain about of period of time in able to be always updated!
Long live Japan.. Safest country in the world.
Lizzy Grant Switzerland is the safest country in the world.
Lizzy Grant except for when they wanted to take over the world. Except then... Well, I guess it wasn't safe for everyone else. But, hey, they were fine, unless they were forced to be kamikaze pilots.
The Swiss are allowed to own guns because they are not unstable like a percentage of American.
They need to stop slaughtering whales, though.
Mary Hendron what about the US wanting to take over the world? Or European countries during imperialism?
Crack down on the criminals. Not the majority of law abiding citizens.
This is the problem with people like you. Do a experienced drug dealer or a “criminal” who have been to prison several times want to kill someone or commit a mass shooting killing 30 people to spend the rest of his or hers life in prison going through the everyday torture in there? No
If we now imagine a “normal law biding citizen” who lets say is depressed and just got dumped by his or hers partner. This theoretical person has mental breakdown maybe on drugs grabs a weapon used for home protection to either kill them self or to take revenge on who ever they blame for his or hers misery by killing it or them? Possibly
It’s never the “criminal” who is the killer, it’s never the criminally obtained gun who is the murder weapon.
Until people understands that the more time it takes for a mass shooter to get hold of a gun, the less likely it is that a mass shooting is to happen.
@@notieming a good majority of those mass shooters never made it to prison. They killed themselves. Law abiding citizens shoot themselves, or they use it against their gf/bf. You’re right about that, but that’s life. Guns are dangerous, and there are consequences to owning them. But it’s imbedded in our constitutio.., to try and take away a specific firearm, or worse, confiscate, will only make things much much worse. Around %40 if Americans own a gun, or live in a house with someone who does. That’s a lot of people, and roughly 40-45 thousand people die a year from gun violence. Nowhere near %40 percent of the entire US population. Guns don’t kill people, people kill people. People change, good people turn bad, and bad people can change as well. Educate the public on gun safety and their dangers.
Taking away guns or restricting certain weapons doesn’t help anyone except the criminals. Our country’s culture is so much more different than others. It’s not as easy as other countries have made it out to be
@@thedude1987
If we are talking about mass shooting, gun education wouldn’t do shit. The individuals who commit these acts are often educated and can there for use a gun properly. In general are Americans are well educated which is good when there is so many guns around.
The problem is not that “normal” criminals have guns from the beginning because for a normal citizen, drug dealers running around killing each other is not a big problem. Some may come in the crossfire which doesn’t have anything to do with guns.
I think that biggest problem that gun wielding Americans is that they don’t see the bigger picture.
Let’s say in a hypothetical that in a country with as many guns as America, 30.000 people die from gun related incidences, but with guns we can also save 5.000 lives.
Let’s say that America without guns there is 10.000 people who get killed (which is most likely criminals, which let’s be fair, we don’t really care about), let’s also say that in this world there is 0 lives saved due to no guns.
What every one reading this can see is that with guns there is a 25.000 people difference in saved lives and lost lives meanwhile in a gun free country there is 10.000 difference.
I think that pro gun activist doesn’t care about the 30.000 deaths and will only say “we saved 5.000 people”
Meanwhile we could save 20.000 people by banning guns
This is what I see when reading you original comment, cracking down on criminals will not do anything, because they will always be there
School shooters are not criminals (don’t take that out of context)
Srry if this is a bit rambly
@@notieming I see what you’re saying. Your hypothetical outlook is nice, but this is reality. Taking away guns from law abiding citizens only leaves them defenseless against those who do.
I’m not sure if you want all guns abolished, or just high capacity semi-auto AR-15s, but either way, the basis of the second amendment is self defense. Guns will continue to thrive in the country legally or illegally so long as we have borders that are not secured.
Every person I know including myself doesn’t want to see anyone die from gun violence, but it happens.
Gun deaths will go down when back ground checks become more detailed, and when prison sentences are extended to keep the criminals off the streets for longer. The guns without vin numbers are the only guns that need confiscated. Criminals will not be turning in their already illegal to own guns to the government.
We haven’t banned alcohol or weed, how many people die a year from accident related deaths to those? Is it a right, or a privilege?
Taking away something that has dangerous consequences to those who are uneducated does not help out the uneducated, it only demoralizes and creates bitter tension to the majority of a population that believes in personal responsibility over government protection.

Jorge Farinha
I think of Pinochet's Chilean death squads, the Caravan of death. For anyone who says the need to be armed against a tyrannical government is outdated, I present a relevant case in the Western Hemisphere not too far away and not too long ago. And I am so beyond surprised that this debate always boils down to the same talking points and cliched arguments. The constitutionality of the Second Amendment, the purpose, intent, and relevant historical context is settled law. The debate is over. Of course I realize a lot of people would not like the debate to be over, but it is. Our 2nd Amendment codifies an individual right to bear arms explicitly for the purpose of being a member of an old school 18th century militia, but by no means limited toward that end. Hunting and self-defense are are not the explicit or primary intent of the Second Amendment, but they're covered within the individual right to own a firearm just the same. Some people ask if us gun "nuts" really expect to defeat the United States military. Of course that point is completely moot. Does anyone really expect the US military to fire an American citizens? Who would they shoot at but their families, their friends, and their neighbors? Hostilities or conflict would never get that far. In the 21st century the purpose of owning firearms in defense from a tyrannical government is not some awesome Red Dawn scenario. In the 21st century the ownership of weapons is a symbol of non-compliance. I don't know what circumstances might bring about the use of the Second Amendment or require that symbolism to be displayed. It's not the top marginal tax rate going from 35% all the way up to 39%. It's not a mandate to buy health insurance or an increase in Medicaid spending. I don't know what circumstances would bring the Second Amendment to its historical fruition, but that Amendment serves as a wonderful little "r" republican virtue...a well-armed citizenry.
Jorge Farinha ...change can take place if fingerprint sensors were on triggers. When l ran for Broward County Sheriff my main proposal was to deputize concealed weapon licenses and have fingerprint trigger sensors on guns.
Well said
Rookie Ranger -- Completely different situation. And a well-armed citizenry is not in the Bill of Rights. A well-armed militia is. And yes, you are a gun nut.
Dragon F So you want a government that does all the things you nuts say you're afraid of. I'm touched by your concern for the victims of gun violence.
Yet nothing changed nor will it ever.
"The restriction of guns will no doubt infringe on the civil liberties of Americans"
How about you tell that to all the dead children. Where were their civil liberties when they needed them most?
It boils my blood when Americans feel that they can justify their 'freedom and civil liberty' on the blood vulnerable and innocent children.
What if that was your child?
Shame on you
So punishing the innocent is fine if it's for the public good? The worst atrocities in history have been carried out by governments using this reasoning. Shame on you.
Did gun owners kill those kids ?
Do you blame the car when a drunk driver kills a car full of innocent people?
Will you blame the kitchen knives and people who posses them if someone stabs you?
@Lizzie Allen I don't see anyone driving into classrooms to run over kids.. do you? Nor use knives for that matter. Bottom line is your society gives you the tools to make school shootings possible and you find it ok? No where else in the world is it this bad.

Kevin Sandells From a Brit’s perspective, I’m very proud of James. You only know him as the presenter on this tv show, what you might not realise is that he worked his way up to where he is now, he’s been on UK tv for years and he’s an absolute legend over here! What do you have to be proud of? Look at the sad excuse of a man that you made your president. You’ve made the biggest dickhead in the world, the leader of the US and potentially one of the most powerful men today. Look in the mirror and see how much you (as a country) have fucked up so badly, before you try and take the moral high ground with me. How can you accuse James Corden of promoting bullying to kids in schools, when you have a president that promotes the use of guns to prevent mass shootings, like that makes any fucking sense.
Rookie Ranger I know, it just makes me laugh: there’s evidence across many different countries, that banning the sale, use and possession of guns, greatly reduces the number of gun-related deaths and virtually wiped out mass shootings altogether. It’s been proven the the UK, Australia, etc. But for some reason, Americans don’t seem to understand and think that by buying guns, you’re protecting yourselves without considering that you’re allowing someone with mental health issues the access to purchase a weapon and commit mass murder, but then it goes full circle because that then makes you think you need to buy guns... #facepalm 🤦♂️
The problem with the gun control debate is the complete inability to compromise and the distrust and hatred of the other side. Liberals see Conservatives as stupid and uneducated and are convinced that they're right. Conservatives see Liberals as weak and inexperienced. Both sides offer examples for an against guns. Conservatives use Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union as examples of why we need guns and Liberals use Britain and Canada as examples of why we don't need them.
A conservative doesn't understand the liberal logic of no guns and a liberal doesn't understand the conservative logic of guns. Because the two sides don't understand each other they come to distrust each other and with that comes a lack of communication and division. As the two sides drift further and further apart it becomes more unlikely for any cooperation to solve the problem of gun violence.
The only problem with your reasoning is that it doesn't take i9n account the brainwashing work the NRA does. If the NRA wasn't there, probably the two opposite camps would be much much closer.
Nice comment only problem i saw was that no one uses uk as an example since banning guns really did not go too well for them

"homicide rate has steadily fallen for decades"
Steadily? I suggest you have another look. Tight gun laws, combined with more effective policing techniques, have had a massive impact, especially in the 90's. Tighter laws again around 2011/12 dropped the homicide rate still further. If you think it's steady, you need to get someone to show you how to read the data.

Feather Pendergrass Why?
Mark Armage why? Srsly?
You're cute, I'll agree with you. But Seriously, I agree any guns with magazine over 7 bullets should be banned. If you can't hunt with 7 bullets then dont. And its not the action movie where you need to shoot everyone. If 7 bullets cant make you feel safe most likely nothing can. Semi auto and such can be accesible to public only in shooting range, and rented inside shooting range only, not to be carried into the society. People are unreliable, they can snap from anything, and you don't want an angry lunatic with semi auto run rampant.
Weedle Guy You do know that semi automatic shot like a hand gun right? They use those kind because it's easier to shot and defense with than hand guns. And shoot with more stability, use your brain, psychopath will figure out a way to commit crimes, that kid could burn about a class full of students alive with some gasoline or chemical substances, don't blame the objects.

I am not an American Citizen...but i was on vacation in San Diego and for one weekend in Vegas shoortly before the shooting...i saw all this happy People in their country boots and in this time i was a bit jealous that we didn't had the time to go there too. We left Vegas a few hours before it happend to go back to San Diego. When i woke up in the morning i had a lot of messages of my family and friends on my phone. I didn't knew what happend so i looked at the news and i remember how shooked i was...and still be. I thought about all the people I saw in Vegas who went to the festival who are dead or hurt, and about their familys.

All states require background checks unless it is a private sale from a person to person and even then its difficult to find someone who will sell without proof like a CCW permit.

Of the remaining percentage, 70% of those are gang related. You don't hear anyone talking about a suicide or gang problem. You also don't hear anyone talking about how they're going to get firearms out of the hands of criminals, when they cannot keep drugs out of the hands of criminals.

There is a deeper issue here.. that needs to get resolved. Find the ROOT of the problem, and fix it. In a "rich nation" like the United States, there SHOULD BE no poverty. People living on the streets, fending for themselves. There SHOULD BE systems in place for decent affordable housing, well paying jobs so you can live and support yourself and contribute to the American economy... and fathers should be MORE involved raising THEIR kids into decent productive citizens that they (their children) wouldn't feel rejected and rely on being wanted by joining a gang. There SHOULD BE MORE emphasis on joining a sports team than joining a gang... parents and adults MUST BE a good role model to the younger generation to turn this around. People should volunteer helping the less fortunate.. by donating to a food bank, or serving food to the homeless. Psychiatric hospitals have to get MORE involved in dealing with mental illness. Start teaching morals when the kids are young, so then in turn when they become adults, they can do the same for their younger generation.
