Oh look, typical MMO-Champion retards slinging the "alt-right" accusation to derail the thread.

So is delusion.
You are talking about fighting a government that could literally turn their citizen's lives upside down with a flip of a switch if they went full on opression. The war between your government and its people would be nothing like flying off to eastern kekistan where people are living in shitholes in the middle of nowhere.
If the United States Government were to turn on its people, there are three things that would happen: The grid would go down, the water would turn off, the gas would be out.
Now, it's fine if you have a generator, a river, and some trees near by. But you are still very much going to be in the governments hands. It isn't a foreign country to them in this situation, and no amount of running and hiding would be able to stop a truly tyrannical government on its own soil.
Speciation Is Gradual
He may have killed more if the armed citizen did not intervene is also a logical belief. Speculative I know. But it is also speculation to say he would not have. :P

Actually school security in action with the lock down initiated by the police saved who knows how many lives. He was unable to enter the school building. And the gunman was stopped ( killed ) by a armed police officer.

Of course. Which is why I rather have a firearm to defend myself than a knife.
Myself, looking at this tragic case, schools need to have better security. This school had a good system to protect the kids inside the school providing there is early enough warning to do a lock-down. There needs to be a more secure entrance at schools in addition I think. Most of these scums pick soft targets on purpose.
That's not even answering my question, just trying to evade having to answer something you know will prove my point. You don't even have less stabbings than us.
Actually our crime rate is significantly lower than yours.

Last one that got reported (that I can remember of) was months ago and the guy who got stabbed survived with non-fatal injuries. And we kinda is at a place where we cannot regulate knives more without screwing ourselves over due to loss of utility. You can only carry knives which are too short to stab people in the heart in public which aren't in packaging, and those knives still need duller edges. You cannot have knives inside the trunk of your car unless it is in packaging or without good reason (for mushroom gathering for instance) and when carrying knives in public they always have to be kept in a way so you cannot just pull one out and stab someone.
Yes, people are going to kill people because people are assholes, but when was the last time you heard of a mass stabbing where a single guy stabbed 5 people to death and injured around a dozen more?
The last one... So far, how much is the score? Armed civilians vs shooters? Glad they could at least make one point that time.
Security? Police officers? Man, I'm all about them having guns. Civilians getting bump stocks in a box of Cheerios and AR 15s at every corner shop, on the other hand...
Lines like this make no sense to me... it makes it sound as though the locations are nearby and not almost two thousand miles apart. You could put the distance between London and Italy between the two locations and have room to spare.News of the shooting comes just weeks after 26 people, including many children, were killed in a mass shooting at a church in Texas.
As a strong supporter of gun rights, I have to recognize one clear thing... this is what I want to happen. I don't think it's the government's business who owns a firearm, or what firearms they do own. I support the proliferation of firearms in this country, which means one thing. These shootings are not only a statistical inevitability, but are also going to be far more prevalent. It's an understood consequence of the world I want to live in. I have weighed the pros and cons, and decided I'm fine with it. Yes, I made my choice, and I want this to happen.
Any 2A supporter who tells you otherwise is lying.
It's why your ideology will never be prevalent amount the masses. It's why your ideology is losing, and will continue to lose. Your desire for violence probably makes you a sociopath at best, a psychopath at worst. And I do mean that actual clinical definition.
In your world, everyone that wants a nuclear weapon has one. In your world, chaos reigns supreme. In your world, there are no computers, no businesses, no structure. We're literally cavemen.
But shit. At least we got pure, unadulterated FREEDOM!
Eat yo vegetables
Why SHOULD it change? He could of killed 3 people with a wood axe, a car, a machete, are we going to ban all of those? USA isn't going to ban guns, and if they ever do try, we will use our guns to stop it, thats why we have guns, to defend our rights and stop tyranny. Everyone in the military and most police are pro guns. Why do you care anyway? Let us shoot each other without Europe's nose in our business.
If only there existed a country that had similar issues to America and decided to outlaw guns and everything changed so we could know if it would work or not.. Oh wait.
