If they want to keep the gun in the consitution fine. However the type of guns you can buy should be limited. No bloody assault rifles etc.
The gun that killed Kirk was a hunting rifle. The same ones we allow here.
Good luck getting those banned.

The United States has a gun death rate of approximately 13.7 deaths per 100,000 people per year, which includes homicides, suicides, and accidental deaths involving firearms.
In contrast, the United Kingdom has a much lower rate of about 0.013 gun deaths per 100,000 people per year

I see the massive weirdo Stephen King has had to apologise for saying Kirk advocated stoning gays to deaths. It appears that he made it up.
Where's One Sunny They?

It was his dad that turned him in.
I reckon he might be a good judge of someone on screen who might be his son.
Especially as he's a 27-year veteran of the Sheriff's Department.

Haha, so some white American PATSY has turned himself in. How convenient.
Meanwhile what happened to that plane that was allowed to depart shortly after? The Mossad operatives will be long back in Israel now...

I've got a horrible feeling the guy they've arrested isn't going to be this ninja mossad assassin the jew haters think it was.

Reminds me a bit of Vexed.
Shouldn't you be out scrawling a cross on a mini roundabout with your own shit or something Mr Free Speech Patriot man?
Guaranteed you're the same cunts that were smashing up 5G antennas to stop COVID spreading.
I got jabbed you presumptuous cսnt, so not in to mad conspiracy theories like 5G antenna Covid guff. So you're not very good at this assumptions lark.... I do however love the thought of you getting easily triggered and vexed whenever you clock a patriotic flag or mini roundabout though.

funny how you never see signs stating 'free the hostages to stop the suffering', just an observation.

One Billy, I agree that taking and holding on to Israeli hostages has been a large contributor to the excessive Palestinian death toll. If you and I were to debate the issue we would do so armed with numerous facts that were not mentioned in the Spiked article you posted up.
Just imagine what your response would be if someone posted up a different point of view which highlighted the kill rate and infrastructure devastation caused b the IDF without mentioning the original Hamas incursion, killing over a thousand Jews combined with hostage taking, that started this conflagration.

USA
0.00005 gun deaths per person
UK
0.0000007 gun deaths per person
I read something about the number of unhinged nutters on the streets of the USA due to all kinds of factors but mostly not removing them like they might have in the past. Anyway it was in the millions. The argument was that the police and the authorities do little about this and so people resort to carrying a hidden gun as a last resort. In other words they are taking responsibility for their own safety as the authorities aren't.
This all seems completely alien to us but as the police and authorities in the UK seem to be travelling down a similar path I think people would think more of how they would protect themselves when they are left on their own to do so.

Of course criminals will always get guns
So is the answer to allow every citizen, every nutter, every dangerous mental case to have one (or more)?
Mentioned before the number of gun related deaths in Cowboy Land compared to civilised nations
How many schools have been shot up and children murdered in the US compared to every other nation?
Dunblane … was that 30 years ago? Any others in the UK?
Saw a MAGA women saying you couldn’t compare Kirk’s shooting to school shootings because the former was ‘a tragedy’ because he had family. Not sure what she imagined dead children had.
England and Wales approach. Strict licencing of firearms, whole classes of gun ownership (pistols, assault weapons) banned. 22 gunshot murders in the year to March 2024 (most recent year available).
USA approach. Virtual unfettered access to firearms, firearms homicides in 2023, just under 18,000.
Wonder, which approach works best?

The perp STILL hasn't been caught eh. Mossad don't fuck about do they.
Clearly you're just another sickening anti semitic leftie loon and just as moronic as the right wing conspiracy theorists loons
You're a moron. Charlie Kirk was calling out Jews hence the suspected Mossad elimination.
I'm no anti-semite. I hate all religions.

"Won't help at all.
If you're in the "criminal fraternity", one of your acquaintances will "know somebody who knows somebody who knows somebody" who can get you (YOU) a gun. No questions, just lay the money down."
Yes, but you don't get nut job mass shootings in the UK, with illegal firearms beacuse of our firearms laws. Criminals will always get guns as you describe and innocents will get caught in the crossfire, but nut jobs don't do mass shootings with illegally obtained firearms, in the UK. If guns were so easy to obtain in the UK, don't you think some of the terrorist atrocities with knives and cars, would have been with guns?
So perhaps the question should be "Who is responsible for allowing these nut-jobs to proliferate and circulate in society?"

No one is claiming ALL Lefties are celebrating, just a lot of them. So anyone that is needs to sort their fucking own out by calling them out. The bile is predominantly from the Left aimed at the Right and to the point they're actively trying and on occasions successfully killing those for holding conservative and Christian beliefs.
The Right have actually kept their shit together and not lost their minds like the Left revealed themselves after the BLM riots. Instead they hold vigils. That's been the level of difference in reaction. Sort your own out, so called "Liberal" Lefties...
