And someone posted in another thread that Nigerians should be allowed to have access to firearms like Americans! With the high level of frustration in Nigeria, it will be corpses everywhere!

On the surface, it sounds like a wack decision. But if you look closely, you'll see it's sound and will be effective.

Mass shooters tend to choose soft targets.

What's a softer than a school full of kids, and designated as a "gun-free zone"?

Why don't they go shoot up police stations?

The mere thought that you could meet resistance will discourage all but the most determined of school shooters.

Gun control also disarms lawful citizens AND makes it possible for only criminal to own guns.

If most homes in Nigeria had guns, do you think these 2-bit miscreants that invade homes will be as rampant?

Chicago has some of the strictest gun control laws in the US, yet they are the murder capital of the US.

This year alone, 321 people have been shot, with 62 dead and 259 wounded.

Mind you we are just in the second month of the year!

Also, you need to look at the significance of guns in US history and culture.

They earned their independence with guns.

Their framers, having just fought off a tyrannical government, knew all too well the importance of an armed citizenry.

Power corrupts absolutely - as the saying goes, and the founding fathers of the US were very distrustful of big government's potential to encroach on people's freedoms.

The role of guns, in the US, becomes very clear when you look at the first two items in the Bill or Rights:

First Amendment: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

Second Amendment: "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."


Here are a few quotes from some of their founding fathers:

[center]"The strongest reason for people to retain the right to keep and bear ar as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." --- Thomas Jefferson[/center]


[center]"Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence." --- George Washington[/center]

anibirelawal:
What a courageous move by the students. I hope that US government will use this medium to Enact thougher gun control measure.

anibirelawal:
Nice one.

Jayson1:
Lol, funny enough, some of the protesting students might have a gun hidden inside his/her locker.


Most of the students protesting are experts in pulling the trigger at the slightesst provocation...They can finger the trigger like a guitar. Pretenders!!!!


Donald Trump should attend to other pressing issues rather than this one. It's just like fighting corruption in Nigeria.... It's fruitless.

Esseite:
Just 17 died and thousands mass protest not just in Florida but all over America...

Here 76 died in Benue, 54 children kidnapped by bokoharam, 95 chibok girls still missing, thousands of un-acknowledged deaths but to protest and speak against it as a country is unacceptable as:

Igbos would tell you its benue peoples problem,
Benue would tell you its a yoruba issues, we told them.
Yoruba's would say the Hausa's should keep killing themselves, Hausa's would say, the igbos are the killers.

At the end of the day, the Government which is to be held reaponsible just sweeps it under.

Izzystevens:
Enough of senseless wastage of lives.
God bless America!

What will happen to the black market if guns stop being sold legally?

Who purchases stuff from the black market, the good or bad people?

Ever wondered why folks are scared of robbing people anyhow? especially in their homes.

Who robs people? the good or bad.

tygar:
when Obama was in power, what did he do about gun reform policy.

ameh99:
The same gun laws Barack Obama tries to enact and the US populist never saw reasons with him....

Well now they know...

bujebudanu1:



Wow.so many reasons to back your claims.but the increase in guns handling is d main problem here.
I think the force men should b employed to teach not civilians that can't handle tempers and ammunitions

The last shooting that happened in las Vegas at a bar.j think last year
Re u suggesting d bartenders also should b equip with guns?

pweshdodo:
Omo I can't help but to stare at the magnificent,beautiful, elegant,colossal,radiant police car up there I think Nigeria is cursed...imagine our police using old and scrap hillux which cannot even move faster than corolla ehn ,I don't wish to come back to Nigeria again..I just don't like what am hearing about Nigeria these days.I love Luxembourg...


Protect your child more than the weapon

GrammarCheck:


Oh, really? I was wondering why he was tweeting from yonder when he was once president and they had guns under him too

Gggg102:



If guns becomes illegal, won't it increase the black market price and make it harder to purchase

BuddhaPalm:


Gun control is not the answer.

"Gun control" is what we currently have in Nigeria.

Instead of your dad having a defensive weapon in the house, only armed robbers and kidnappers have it.

Mindfulness:


To bear arms is a constitutional right in the US (second amendment). A 2/3 majority is required to alter the constitution so Obama could not have done it alone and he would never get NRA sponsored politicians to do so. What he did was to make it more difficult for mentally unstable individuals to acquire guns, which Trump, the Idiot-in-Chief, reversed.

BuddhaPalm:


My brother, it's just that there are higher things at stake.

Terrorists have attacked with trucks, knives and even fertilizer bombs. And the solution isn't to ban these because they have other utilitarian values.

Texting and driving kills 11 teenagers DAILY in the us. Should we also ban cars and phones?

Why are the kids not protesting this?

The thing is everything is "pros/cons", and for guns, the pros outweigh the cons.

In the 20th century, alone, governments killed an estimated 262 MILLION people under their control. Six times the number of people who died in all the wars of the 20th century combined...

They even have a fancy name for it: Democide.

One notable thing many of these governments did first was to disarm their citizens.

What trump suggested actually worked in Israel to reduce terror attacks: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/21714
It will also work in the US.

GrammarCheck:


Really!!!! So Trump feels good when a mentally unstable man walks into a gun shop, buys rifles, walks into a school or a church and goes berserk on a group of innocent people. I'm trying to understand the rationale behind reversing it

bujebudanu1:
See oyinbo children in their canvass jeans and tops.everything is clean.

ibnchokomah:
He enacted a policy despite the opposition from the Republican party, making it difficult for people with mental health issues to acquire guns. Funnily enough it's one of the first things Trump rolled back

Ipfreely:


Perhaps you should spend just a little bit of time on Google and educate yourself on the issues.

Then you wouldn't make these rather Ill informed remarks.
