This is what happens when a nation mightily blessed and prospered by God turns her back on the Ancient of the Days.

This is what Happens when a nation ignores its SOURCE OF POWER right from its seat of power.

It is Disater, Destruction, Death, Desolation, etc.
Nomerica as a nation is gone. What is coming upon her is nothing compared to What she is seeing now
You should be taking your medication at Yaba left.
Is the situation in US as bad as NIGERIA?

Just so you know, God is not a wicked being, he returns hate with love. So do not see societal ills as the handiwork of my Father.

No matter what your kid do, don't lay ur hands on him Rather, seize his toy or phone.
Forgetting dt a kid today, is adult tomorrow.
So they grow with no fear of consequences to their actions .
At school, teachers greet and bow to their students.Students spank their teachers who are their formators and nothing happens.
When they grow, they start doing the unthinkable with no fear.
And they want us to copy their culture in d name of human rights.
Now, that such kids have grown and are shooting and killing, where then lies the human rights?
And those shot dead are gone forever.
U cant ignore the words of d bible and fail to receive the consequences.

Mass shootings in the US growing rapidly but they never seem to make a big deal out of it, but if it’s an Arab country, Africa, or Nigeria in particular they will certainly influence the media tagging them as ‘restricted areas embodied with terrorists.

Everyone flapping their lips about things they know nothing about.

Gun ownership is written into the US constitution.

Its not the same as Australia,UK or all the other countries you talk about.

There are over 300 million privately owned guns in the US already so banning will not work.

Also gun laws are different in every state.

You live in Nigeria,you have bigger problems to deal with than gun laws in the US.

Total amount of people killed by boko haram which is sponsored by AmerikkaNazi is less than 15k. America is a jungle only fits for dirty animals. No Nigerian should reside in America, if u do you automatically becomes an animal like donkey, baboon and goat

Is your Nigeria gone?

Whatever the case may be Nigeria recorded not more than 200 killings this year but U.S recorded 11000 homicide cases already since April.

I swear to God no country on earth has close to the homicide cases of U.S in the world including war devastated Nations. The average homicide cases in U.S Annually is around 40k.

I think the real reason behind retaining the right to arm ownership is to guard against external aggression. With almost everyone in the US owning a gun and having shooting experience, countries will think twice before sending troops to takeover the country.




God1000:
Very ugly situation in US.

The second amendment has done more harm than good, it should be abolished.

A well organized country like US doesn't need that, they have both the federal and state police patrolling every town and community, so what's the need for individuals to bear arms

Other advanced countries like UK, Germany, France, Canada, Australia, Japan, South Korea don't have such laws and they live in peace.

The USA government should repeal, remove, cancel the Constitutional law in the Constitution that gives their citizens the right to acquire and own guns ....and also close down all those shops that sells guns in USA... this is the solution

At least the killers always pay with their own life. But in a country called Nigeria in Africa. The killers will boast about their killing. And prepare to kill more the following day. Finally they will be given a chieftancy title. The government will pay them to stop killing people.

Internal terrorism is plaguing the US, that country is not even safe as they made it to appear.
This is even ironical on their part while they're busy fighting international terrorists, their homegrown terrorists which they'd arrogantly or selfishly encouraged by their very loose gun control laws and gun merchandise.
Whenever these US mass shootings surface, I get seriously concerned about my/our Nigerian loved ones over there and hope they don't get caught up in the crossfires.

..ok it will never happen because the USA politicians , senators, and government officials children, families are not killed by this mass shooting...if this mass shooting was also affecting the senators, government officials, politicians families, children and some of them were killed they will repeal, remove, cancel the gun right law from the Constitution immediately.....it's because the mas shooting is not getting to them they are well protected with security personnels and police...that is why they do not care...it's only the common man in USA that will suffer it and be affected by this mass shooting...

Thank you. It’s like a lot of people don’t know this. Gun ownership is literally a constitutional right in America. Banning guns will require a constitutional amendment which is darn near impossible in America’s currently polarized political climate. People think it’s as easy as congress just passing a law or the president signing an EO.

Also, like you said, how do you get rid of the over 300 million guns that are already in the country? That will take a monumental confiscation scheme by the federal government which will almost certainly lead to a war because some people in that country will rather die than give up their guns.

I think I wiser approach is to focus on mental health, broken families and all the other underlying social problems that lead to mass shootings. America has always had guns but the increased rate of gun violence is a relatively new phenomenon. That proves that there are other causes. It’s not just the guns.

The gun fights happen in 2% of 3000 counties
The same places
Yet most guns are never in gunfights
In London no gun but plenty knife
Will you ban kitchen knife in London?
Do you rrlise more ppl die from hammers in USA, more from cars and way more from sugar and oil
Don't hear anyone banning those

Every country that bans weapons eventually enslaved their ppl

Only a fool will support that?
Are you a fool?
Do you like slavery?
