The worst mass shooting in the United States has once again raised questions about gun ownership and whether there should be tougher controls.

How does the US compare with other countries?

About 40% of Americans say they own a gun or live in a household with one, according to a 2017 survey, and the rate of murder or manslaughter by firearm is the highest in the developed world. There were more than 11,000 deaths as a result of murder or manslaughter involving a firearm in 2016.

An interesting article about gun culture and statistics worth a look

Guns are necessary. They are a human right.

Jesus christ, the first sentence in your own quote:

"The worst mass shooting in the United States has once again raised questions about gun ownership and whether there should be tougher controls."

Guns are necessary. They are a human right.

love how americans keep saying that, cos having guns is clearly more important than the fact that people keep using them on innocents. Innocents who could not often would not even have the time to use their own guns to defend themselves

After going through the article, it does multiple times go onto topics of gun control or stats that are related to gun control anyway.

So this would be more appropriate for the Gun Control megathread-
