Proper Gun control laws work. These figures prove that. Countries with the Highest Rates of Firearm-Related Suicide (per 100k) in 2019 1. Greenland — 16.36 2. United States — 7.12 3. Uruguay — 4.74 4. San Marino — 4.08 5. Montenegro — 3.40 6. Argentina — 2.67 7. Finland — 2.66 8. Monaco — 2.64 9. France — 2.64 10.Venezuela — 2.50 In contrast to the U.S. and Latin America, gun deaths are extremely rare in countries like Japan, the United Kingdom, Norway, and Australia. These countries have implemented incentives or passed legislation to decrease the number of firearms in circulation. For example, in July 2021, Australia implemented a permanent gun amnesty program, in which unregistered firearms could be anonymously surrendered at police stations. Suicide isn’t the same as gun violence IMO. I’m not sure why I’m even in this debate, because no one (not even the Federal Government) will ever be able to control guns. Gun rights is too embedded in the American mind. It's a shame that guns rights are viewed they way the are in the USA. I have yet to see any pro guns rights person on here talk about gun responsibility.

It would help if he put a comma in one or two places for it to make sense. But then, I've only got a masters degree so what would I know. Against Wally's lack of education, who can beat that? He's always correcting others typos but can't cope when others correct him. Oh I have an idjitcation just like you, been to college twice and have two degrees and several certificates to show for it... Project much? Not even good try at a narrative... You have told us in the past what qualifications you had and it wasn't like you're making out. So now you're claiming to have 2 Bachelor degrees or are they diplomas?

The best wally mistake I read was when he said canons were being banned. I am still laughing at that.

He never said bachelor degrees that I know of. There are community colleges that give degrees but not bachelor degrees. Waldo likes to mislead. You should know that by now. When he says he has an idjitcation, he is correct. His posts are proof.

It's all bible legit Matthew 11:25-27 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.
Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Everybody should obey the sixth commandment, "Thou shalt not Kill". Doing this is breaking both God's Law and Man's Law.
Human life is sacred, holy, and precious. The sanctity of life is inherent as Man cannot create life. Therefore, Man has no authority to destroy life.

According to wally the commandment is wrong, and it actually means "Thou shalt not murder" and shooting someone that you perceive is a threat to you is killing, not murdering, and that is ok apparently, even though, as you correctly say, the commandment does actually say "thou shalt not kill "

I did not say they were bachelor degrees...Not even a nice try at a narrative In Canada I believe the lowest degree is a bachelor degree. Lesser are certificates or diplomas. Is this different in the united states?

Redback... For those of you that wish to follow redbacks interpretation I suggest you start disbanding your police and military pronto....

Cannot understand how any so called professing Christian does not value the sanctity of life. That leaves me bewildered.

So why are you reluctant to name what your qualification is? I vaguely remember you saying in the past something like a Diploma in admin. I'm likely wrong so correct me. You also wrote Wally, that you have an idjitcation just like me,....unsure what you mean here as I do not have any idjitcation but then you've often made guesses about me and others which are wrong and we've just learned to ignore them. Idjitcation, a slang word made up by Wally to mean nothing. Mine is genuine, wallys words are that he has nothing.

Now I do agree that more should be done to help the the Ukrainians. A lot more but that is a lot different from the general public living in a so called civilizaed country walking around with guns and shooting anyone who looks dangerous. A lot of mistakes have been made in shooting someone before they shoot us kind-of thinking. It seems to me that it's OK for workers to carry guns because Jesus said you can carry a sword but not OK for them to carry a purse even though it's in the same verses.

Defending others is preserving life. Life is precious, but when a person attempts to destroy another person they rightfully their own life. The war in Ukraine is the same concept as self defense, only on a much bigger scale.

Gun violence is a contemporary Global Human rights issue. Gun-related violence threatens our most fundamental Human right, THE RIGHT TO LIFE. Gun violence is a daily tragedy affecting the lives of individuals around the World. More than 500 people die every day because of violence committed with firearms.
I am so glad that I live in Australia where we are relative free from this evil. Praise goes to our previous Prime Minister, John Howard who had his Government enact strict Gun control laws. Of course it was opposed by idiots, at risk to his own life. However he was determined and pressed on and sensible laws were the end result.
Guns like an AR-15 totally banded, a Civilian cannot own one. Makes sense it was designed for one purpose to kill Humans, not for hunting Rabbits. Wake up America, keep your pop Guns if you must, but get rid of the ones that kill 21 lives in a moment. Sadly most of those lives were Children. Tragic.

A war is taking place in Ukraine unlike the USA where if someone looks dangerous shoot them. Ukraine is on superalert. The enemy is there to shoot and kill. We should not have to live like that in a civilized country... viewing everyone as the enemy. America is not at war. How would they cope in a country where you're not allowed to carry guns?

I don't know how it works in your country but most Christians here in the USA don't just shoot people for conflicting views. You might want to speak to a US lefties here though they are getting ready to do just that....
