Gun Control in Meixco..



Fully Automatic assault weapons are banned, but there are MAD ak-47s in the americans hoods. I used to have one, and it was from the Former eastern bloc, and I don't know how it got here.

The assault weapon ban didn't stop me from owning a completely illegal weapon, and I didn't go through any regristration process. I had the typical 100% illegal Banana clip as well. (I don't have it anymore)

If I wanted another AK-47, tech 9, or a M16 (no ar-15), I'm pretty sure I could get one in short order.

Gun control would require major Prison time for possession to work as a deterrent. And Guess who is going to be convicted of illegal gun possession the most? Young Black Males. You can bet money on that one.

Black males may not be the ones who have the most illegal firearms, but they will be the ones who are "caught" the most because of institutional racism.

I mean whatever, you can buy an assault rifle off the deep web. You can get a semi auto assault weapon and modify it to become full auto. If you really want a weapon, you can get one. Theres no question about that.

I do think what you're saying is true and interesting regarding young black men being collared the most for illegal possession. That is true. But the thing is.... Maybe it's worth it? By 2015, gun deaths are slated to exceed traffic fatalities. Thats fukked up. I don't really support full bannings. But this is indicative of our need to make a change in our policies and/or enforcement:

Exactly. This is what's gross about it. It will be another war on drugs.. where others are the main users, and blacks are the most policed.

I'm biased however, not because I'm black, but I'm very conservative on this issue.

Gun control wouldn't be effective in my opinion. We can make sure crazies don't have weapons; but since we can't prevent all people from having weapons, at least we need the janitors, teachers, cashiers, and other random people who have had training, to possibly be able to stop a mass slaughter.

Again let me point out that we're talking about this issue right now because a crazy kid with easy access to guns did some dirt right? What are the chances his mom would have had those weapon if they were illegal? In a different America with different laws this crazy mofo is swinging from an extension cord in his closet and not lying in a classroom dead with 26 other people. ...just sayin.

As for crime in general it could possibly have a marginal affect on street crime. It might even go up but if it's criminals killing other criminals then really who gives a fuk, particularly when violent crimes are going down overall?

This is the thing that gets me. There is no legislation they will pass that will effect white males and white women from getting these weapons even though thats who does these mass shootings. It will effect blacks and minorities access to weapons.

how many people are actually killed by crazies or in crimes of passion? probably less that 5% of gun homicides in this country.

The majority of people are killed in the drug game. The USA and mexico have the highest rate of gun homicides. These two countries are the frontline for the world's drug market.

Murder is an effective self regulation in the absence of state enforced contracts. People are killed out of strategy not because of crazies.

20 little kids were killed in that school shooting. 1000's of minorities are killed in the drug game every year. Nobody cares about them. We have collectively assigned a higher value to little kids and lower value to minority teens. the only to curbed gun violence in america is to legalize drugs. thats it.

I think it could work in some places, but not others. Japan I can see because they have an hush hush agreement with government and the yakuza where everyone eats. Here, I just don't see that happening. It's just too many different people with too many different interests.:( We also got a history with the gun so it would be harder to ween off that.

This is bullshyt. Drug murders are way down since their peak. Lol@less than 5% of murders being crimes of passion. How many murders happen daily because of someone feeling punked or disrespected, a minor argument, or over a girl?

There was a report from the FBI a couple of years ago about how drug-related violence had subsided greatly and rage crimes are way up.

Lets also forget about Mexico's weak central government, Cartels that rival the Government in power and structure, corruption, and conflicts in Central and South America over the last... well ever.


This thread is absurd and just another outlet for op to vent his rage against his blackness.

I'm sure every gun crime of passion in the hood is the result of a legal firearm.

I had a Nine when I was 17. I remember a guy shot off a .22 into the air at my friend's 15th birthday party. The guy with a gun was also 15 yo. What kind of gun law is going to stop that?

like I said, an effective gun law would need a steep penalty of possession. I think an automatic 15 to 25 year sentence would be effective. It would result in 100s of thousands more minorities in prison.
