Yes a weapon can kill a lot of people but against an armed popularise even mag dumping I doubt you could mag dump before a gun has been drawn on you.

If knives were just as efficient at killing then the military could save billions by just assuming troops with knives. Guns don't kill people but people can more efficiently kill people using guns. I do agree about the full auto issue. Spraying bullets is highly inefficient but it's also far more dangerous in terms of ricochet and missed targets. The more bullets you spray, the more likely a ricochet or missed shot can kill an innocent bystander. Having one shot makes you focus more on where you're shooting. With that said, most of the CA type bans don't really make sense. Guns have become far more efficient since the 1700s. And the framers weren't thinking that far ahead. They had no clue of what the future would bring

I would argue that he inadvertently hit on a key point. The Sandy Hook Guy (who cares what his name was) was antisocial and played games based on massacres, probably way too much. This is a learned reaction without actual emotional repercussions. The socialization skills aren't being developed and then this game play is happening even more in place of real interaction. He's upset/disturbed and sees something familiar and acts on it. It makes sense with his limited and off center life experience. For disclosures sake, I grew up hunting and had a strict father who eased me into shooting appropriately - SAFETY FIRST. Also, I'm not a psychopath, perhaps except when driving. Well after that was ingrained, I discovered first person shooters. They were fun. I've played a grand total of 6 in my life. They were kind of fun, especially with friends that I could go after. I knew that none of the truly reflected reality because of my life experience. And, of course, I have no inclination to run after close friends while emptying an M249.

How many people in Australia would still be alive if they had put the Port Arthur shooter, someone who'd had violent and dangerously unbalanced behaviors going back to childhood, in a psychiatric hospital?

I will admit I stopped reading comments when the name calling started so if anything notable was said after that I didn't see it.I'm not going to bother with stats because those seem to getting ignored by the anti gun people anyway. 1) Just because you believe in the second amendment doesn't make you a gun nut. 2) Assault rifles and machine guns are NOT the same thing. A machine gun continues to fire as long as the trigger is held down.Those were outlawed in something like 1934. An assault rifle works just like a semi auto handgun ( a 45 or 9mm for example). You only get 1 bullet with each pull of the trigger. 3) There are may reasons we support the second amendment that can't be explained to or ever really understood by the majority of people that aren't from here.(thank you to the non American 2nd amendment supporters here). Defending yourself is a very good reason to own a gun but I'm going to speak to the original reason for the 2nd amendment. When it comes to The Founding Fathers Piers Morgan doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. The 2nd amendment was ratified in 1791.1791 was only 2 years into George Washington's 1st Presidential term and most of the other FF were very much alive and their feelings on the subject are well documented.They were very much for it. Here is a link with some of their statements on the subject.www.thefederalistpapers.org/history/the-founding-fathers-on-the-second-amendment No they couldn't foresee the invention of semi automatic weapons but the whole point of the amendment is to give the people a fighting chance against an army funded by the government.So I don't think they would want us fighting against machine guns with muskets and hunting rifles. They had just come out of a war with an oppressive government so they weren't exactly ignorant as to what it would take to keep that from being necessary again.The people being armed is supposed to be the last resort but also a very major deterrent.

People who buy guns should have all the paperwork done, have mentally and crime checked. I am gun owner from europe, so if you want a gun(i can buy any time of pistol with permit, no mag or caliber restriction) you have to take gun courses, have a safe to keep guns, police check it once a year if guns are kept safe, courses are like 3 weeks few times a week where you learn how to shoot basics, take care of gun and basic rules of ownership.

@@leodoingthings1706 Oh, and it is a right in the UK just as much as the USA. The difference is that your government isn't prohibited by law from infringing the right and the US government is. But you've the right nonetheless. We don't have the right in the USA because we have the 2nd Amendment. We have the 2nd Amendment because we have the right. The right itself pre-dated the 2A. All of the rights mentioned in the Bill of Rights existed before the Bill of Rights.

sorry wedo not need to provide you a reason why we wantto own a gun

not a fan of Piers, however i was with him in his point all the way until he dropped in a comment about video games being a cause for a school shooting, completely preposterous and an old boring argument, other than that, yeah, America has a gun problem

Harry Kelly He didn't even make that statement, he clearly said that the kid was dysfunctional and played video games all day. It is undeniable that, with mental issues and no proper human contact, a kid might want to emulate a game he plays. Your response to his sentence is also old and boring.

in that case where does the fault lie? parents? bullies? society loves a scapegoat, however the obvious one refers back to the title of this video, guns are to blame and the ridiculous access people in the states have to them

Matty Supski Correction he did not "complete " that statement. He also never bothered to actually say that Adam suffered from a mental illness either. He made a lot of untrue or purposefully misleading statements. Like the "Amendments" the first ten known as the "Bill of Rights" has never been changed. Though he was correct about the NRA "Brainwashing" if you sign up they send you this video with pretty swirling pictures. Now who sounds like Alex Jones.

martthesling Lol i would love to see cops knock at everyones door demanding guns. That's not a pretty picture

What's the problem with armed females?

Most of the time populist nonsense from him, but on guns he is right

Piers, guns are NOT banned in UK. We have TIGHTER laws so bad guys csnt get their hands on them. So it us hard to buy a gun in UK but not impossible. China for example truly banned guns as you cant permanently own any gun, not even a BB gun. Also if a chinese citizen for example needed a gun for hunting he or she is allowed to borrow it and will need to return it after use...so very few people have guns in china.

Thank god I don't live in America!🙏

Why not? America is actually a good place to live. Our biggest problem is that we've a few tens of thousands of people capable of murder out of 330 million yet we don't keep them in prison when they are violent to others.

@@brucenadeau2172 ‘mass shootings do not happen here’ are you really that ignorant and stupid? There has been 380 school shootings in the U.S since Columbine in 1999. There were 46 in 2022 more than any year since 1999. This is just school shootings alone. Let alone all the others like Vegas, the Aurora shooting etc. fool.
