For those who say that the gun control "logic" of other countries won't work in the US can't actually say that.
Because the US government has never tried it in the first place - ever - so you speak an unfounded truth.

Try it first. At least give it some kind of a go. Saying "Banning guns will never work" is cutting off your nose to spite your face.
Because you don't actually know that. Australia is still the record holder for the biggest one off shooting massacre in the world (Port Arthur 1996)
After which, the government banned the guns and guess what? Haven't had one since. Other shit has happened since but no mass shootings.
All I'm saying is other governments have tried many different ways of dealing with it whereas the US, to date, has not. Hence, the mass shootings keep happening.

What's happening with gun control in the US affects us all around the world. Stopping the copycat behavior means going to the source of the problem.
As I said before - You can't pull the trigger if there's no trigger to pull. We're talking harm minimization here. Not a complete fix cause that will never happen.
