Like those dunces will always say, “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people”

When guns are littering everywhere and you expect gun violence and crime not to peak!

Anyways, thoughts and prayers!
Clap for yourself


I hope you get gunned and know how it feels to be unarmed.

Its a doubled edged sword. Imagine if guns were littered everywhere in Nigeria, and a lot of households had guns, do you think Boko Haram and Bandits will be able to terrorise people like they currently do?
They will even have more easier access to guns sef

Do you think Nigeria has the ability to track all those guns sold like newspaper

Can’t you see how people get gunned down in Germany, UK, Canada, Italy, Qatar, China and UAE, because they don’t have guns.

Can’t you see the school mass shootings in Switzerland and Australia because people don’t have guns.

Same reason you have gang violence in Taiwan because people don’t have guns.

Y’all be making point like it’s difficult for you to see the root cause of gun violence.

Now you looked at it from the angle of terrorism, now look at it from the angle of crime, gang violence, marital dispute and even road rage.

When everybody has a gun, what do you think will happen?

Learn from other countries!

Countries with stricter gun laws are safer. That’s indisputable.

That's why I said it is a double edged sword. It has its advantages and disadvantages.

By the way, even without guns, is violence not high in Nigeria? Is gang violence not high? Go on Facebook and checkout naijaconfra page, every freaking day there are multiple gang related/cult killings across the country. Every freaking day.

You asked what will happen when everyone has a gun...it would reduce the power an evil person with a gun has.

Show me a country where it works.

Can we compare the US and Germany with statistics to show the US is safer than Germany?

We all know high crime rate in America is majorly in black communities... And it's mostly black on black crime.

Oh! Tell me more!

Which race has done most of the school shootings killing kids?

Not to be insensitive, but do you want to compare school shootings that happen once in a blue moon to black Americans gunning down each other and bragging about it on a weekly basis.

Gang violence you can attribute to blacks, but they don’t own all the gun violence in the US.

Alaska is a dangerous state with high crime rate, will you also attribute it to Blacks?

Blacks lead in gang violence, but does not account for all the chunk of gun violence in the US.

The root cause for all is still the guns!

This is scary though. The U.S really need to take a more drastic approach to gun violence and the availability of that tool to just anyone.
They will tell you it’s a constitutional right!

A country where it is easier to get a gun than to get a drivers license.

The most interesting part is that, it is also much more easier to get a gun than to rent a car.

If you want gun control laws that work, try Japan own.

You go to your police station , fill a form that asks you why you need a gun among other things

Then you get six weeks of lessons on gun handling. At the end of the six weeks, there is an exam. If you pass...you go to the next stage.

You then get interrogated by a police officer as to why YOU want a gun. The interrogation would be very very thorough

Police would also visit your working place and your neighbourhood to ask questions of your coworkers and neighbours about YOU as a person

They will also visit your house unannounced...to see where you will keep your guns

Also, you will have two sessions with a police psychiatrist. If he or she thinks that you are 'kolomental' sorry. (And the psychiatrist is not going to tell you their diagnosis).

If you pass all these steps, you get your gun licence, and you can buy a gun.

But even then, the police will STILL VISIT YOUR HOUSE unannounced to see if your gun is kept secure.

Common sense!

That’s what the US cannot do!

….and despite all, you still cannot get a military grade weapon, unlike the US where you can purchase a Gilboa or AR-15

Okay...so 12 years can be jailed then?.
yes , unlike Nigeria, each state have their own criminal law, in Missouri the minimum age to try a minor as an adult for any criminal case (in this case murder) is 12 years old. He is currently 10 years.

Mattswaggz:
So how will he be punished now?....what kind of punishment will be meted on him?. undecided

The owner of the gun and his immediate guardian should be charged with negligence and should face a brutal punishment...... America's leadership need to also do something about the amount of guns circling around and how easy it is for every tom, dick and Harry to get a gun.
The child will be confined untill he/she comes of age (18 ) before he can face the capital punishment

Gun is like purewater in USA. How did a 10 year old get the gun? The owner of the gun should be charged for negligence.
The gun unfortunately belonged to his 19 year old dad. This is really a sad situation. Police will charge the father as well for child endangerment. Guns should be properly locked away at home.

Sad story but country is safer when sane adults can have a gun, imagine we all have guns, will those stewpeed Boko Haram bandits intimidate anybody.?
The reason why terrorists can't survive in America is because of the guns, if you try it, you are gunned down even before police arrival

Isnt the fun supposed to be in the gun safe? How can you have a fun and not gun safe. Retards.

The fool should be locked up for life so he can have sense in his next life. You will be shocked to hear that he shot the baby because she was crying endlessly. Some people are just pure evil and kids are no exceptions.
