    So does nearly every country with extremely low gun violence rates. Now, tell us that doesn’t count for some reason.

      Yeah but here in France there was a mass shooting in Paris during the terrorist attack of 2015 (like, almost yesterday but 9 years ago), and Trump had a great speech about it during a (NRA?) conference when he said that it wouldn’t have happened if we had guns! Very smart, MIT and stuff, but no shark, no, sharks bad!

      So what gun control do you think we should enact? It is a direct question. No need to be passive aggressive.

        Obviously anything I say will be invalidated for some reason or other. Can we skip to the part where you say that other countries have policies that would never work here?

            If you would never accept any regulation against guns, why would you pretend to be curious about them?

              Who says I would never accept them? Your assumptions are poor. We have a lot of gun laws that the public and legislature have passed that seem to have missed the point because we copy a lot of what California does instead of focusing on effective means of stopping violence.

                What would you like to see? Washington has a lot of gun control.

                This you? Not an unbiased question.
