your whole 'argument' is based on hypotheses, on assumptions based on literally zero evidence.
mine is based on plenty of examples from peer countries all over the world. countries that ALL have their own unique makeup, struggles, social, and historical problems, most of them with a far longer history than the american one (just to inb4 that lazy excuse)...
so no, if 'removing guns' would NOT have an impact on mass killings, as you falsely claim over and over again, we would have such incidents at similar rates in other countries. we don't. again, facts don't care about your feelings...
i challenged the validity of your comparison, and pointed out (correctly) that those places still have mass killings (Nice France, etc).
then just simply asked, even if you're right, how you'd remove the guns.
it's a 2 part conversation, 1 i challenge that removing guns would have the effect you claim it would, 2 i accept your assertion in a hypothetical sense then ask how you'd do it.
you're still caught on part 1, because you can't explain part 2. keep dancing.
now you'll of course be predictable and point out the vastly lower occurrence of mass killings in European "peers", ignoring that i said it wasn't a valid comparison for that metric. then we can start the merry go round again, for the 5th or 6th time, so that you can avoid explaining how your plan works.
