You're conclusion I would add Australia. There is a direct link between increased guns and high crime rate. America is cooked with the amount of shootings. Some of the points you've raised are propaganda that's been pushed by gun lobbiests whom are the gun manufacturers.

News flash, division and strong political campaigning has been used in this space to increase sales of guns. Run the data, every time gun control discussions occur gun sales and ammunition sky rocket. In turn creating big profits for the companies who then in turn give that cash to..... legislators.

Crime does not go down when more guns are present, crime goes down when the only person carrying a gun is law enforcement (noting law enforcement in America is pretty shit)

I can however understand why Americans want to keep guns or are scared to get rid of them. More Americans die a year to police are huge. You have a 1 in 2000 odd of being shot by a police officer in the US (F,Edwards H, Lee M, Esposito, Risk of being killed by police use of force in the United States, 2019)

Mate, with those odds I wouldn't be calling for the right to maintain guns, I'd be calling for the government to provide me with heavy artillery power to fight my odds, I'd need laser detection systems and shit)

Police need to clean up their act before any form of action can be taken.

I was Sooooooo hoping the national guard was going to fuck up the cops. Seen it coming a mile away. Them bad boys are to preserve life. The few that did the police bidding would have been court marshalled.

I was wrapped when the US Defence dropped that letter on Trump telling him to pull his head in.

Although not Trumps fault it is a systematic cultural problem developed over centuries.
