    New Hampshire, more guns, easier to get guns, less homicide. there are more pertinent factors here than the ease of access to guns and the amount of them. too much focus being laid on inanimate objects and not enough towards the failings of our culture.

    • i used to site this all the time back when i was pro gun, then the shit hit the fan.moldero
    • Sandyhook is what did it for memoldero
    • bad comparison. population of NH is 1.3 million, or just a little less than Manhattan.robotron3k
    • could you be more clear as to what it did for you
      ********
    • Really? 'Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting' doesn't say it all for you? now I know your trolling. I'm done with you on this subject.moldero
    • um no, it doesn't say it all, doesn't say much of anything. a psychopath slayed a bunch of children, it's horrific. what does that have to do with you
      ********
    • and tell me, how is that ban on guns going down in mexico
      ********
    • do you have kids?moldero
    • & the gun ban isn't doing shit, but to be fair stop signs don't do shit down here either.moldero
    • yes, and if sandy hook was anywhere near me i would have advocated for teachers to conceal carry. these cowards target the most helpless and vulnerable
      ********
    • targets. they are not combatants, they are murderers and they will not engage a target if they think the target may be armed. notice how the mall shootings have
      ********
    • tapered off. to many armed people in malls for these cowards to think they can rack up a big enough body count to get the media frenzy and infamy they are after
      ********
    • *too many
      ********
    • I agree, they are predators preying on the weak, but the solution your backing is 'more guns for less violence' and its an unproven and unnecessary gamble justmoldero
    • gun control has been proven and effective in "normal" countries like Aus and Fra,moldero
    • Mexico has its own crazy issues, using MX as an example doesn't really work because MX is nothing like the US.moldero
    • well the us and mx are a lot more alike than the us and those 'normal' countries wouldn't you agree
      ********
    • I used to use the MX excuse as well, here on QBN in fact, the thing is, shit changes, gun violence has gone to a whole new level up theremoldero
    • All the more reason for a meaningfull discourse and to leave behind the altruistic black and white scenarios that will never come to pass
      ********
    • ^^^ the US is more like MX then FRA & AUS? Ive never been to FRA or AUS, but living here in MX since '07 this shit is nothing like the US hence why I'm heremoldero
    • A fierce sence of individual liberty that is lacking over there
      ********
    • I'm not articulating myself that well with that, give me a second
      ********
    • You would want kindergarten teachers to have a concealed weapons at school? Really? Damn.monospaced
    • if you have to compare Mexico with the US to make an argument there is nothing really to discuss hereernexbcn
    • The US has gun culture imbedded in its core values, similar to Mexico, unlike European cultures
      ********
    • true, they have boobs embedded in theirsmoldero
    • but I can write so many stories on how insanely different this place is over the US, but I'd rather do it over a pint, just way too much to type + its friday.moldero
    • I'm viewing the waves from my office and thinking I'm gonna go hit a few.moldero
    • Good shit brother, let's do this some other time
