On a side note. Can there be a "politics forum" where people are required to add sources?

Here is a statistic for you. There are over 270M civilian owned firearms in the United States. How many firearms have been used in violent crime? Your statistic shows that only a percentage of the 1.1M violent crimes committed involved a firearm. That's well below 0.5% of all civilian owned firearms in the US that are used in a violent crime. It's a pandemic. Why don't you look up the counts of self-defense cases where a firearm is used?

Biased site. I read until they got to the U.K. Part. Only provide information on why guns should be legal. No provided information on our murder rate vs the UK.

I don't really want to discuss real worlds politics here (I'm very happy to discuss Avonmoran politics, though!), but I think everyone needs to read this, and carefully and quietly think through if this may apply to them: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias

Actually, in Germany, strict gun ownership controls pre-dated Nazi rule, to the extent that few private citizens did own firearms : what did happen after 1933 was that the existing rules were relaxed so that favored elements, such as party members, could own guns privately. The notion that Jews, Gypsy's and others were forbidden to own guns so as to be easy to destroy is a bit of a red herring, as they, along with most German citizens, never had any right to own guns anyway. It's part of a hypothetical argument raised by some to suggest an armed populace could have resisted Nazism. Some have taken this to mean that, historically the Nazi's passed laws to disarm their chosen victims : in fact, they didnt have to.

one part of the usa currently is if someone managed to get past the army and into a city or something like that the usa's populace would probably be able to resist the invaders mostly if they came out into the country because well people around here have a ton of guns
