And I assume you have a plan to get rid of over 600,000,000 guns in civilian hands without a registry to know where/who has what? Pandora’s box has been opened, there will never not be guns, all we can do is stop people from buying new ones (which would certainly help disarm POC and women who are the two fastest growing groups of gun owners for damn near half a decade by now, if your goal is to make it so mostly white men have guns that could work I suppose.)
Japan proves guns aren’t a prerequisite for suicide. In fact really only men do it with guns here, women opt for intentional poisoning statistically and since they’re your sole focus it won’t help much there.
19k killed, 100k defensive gun uses/yr (Harvard). 100k > 19k.
100k > 27k. 19,651+27,032=46,674, 46,674 < 100,000
Blah blah blah tldr.
And now we get the the dumbest fucking argument of all. There are so many guns how are you going to regulate them. It’s like if you have a big problem suddenly you can’t do anything about it.
If there was ever a reason to regulate something it is when it has become a big problem.
Then you bring up the next stupidest argument. The fact that Japan has no guns but high suicide. Guess what Sherlock? Their suicide rates would be much higher if they had a lot of them.
This has all been discussed and proven thousands of times by empirical evidence. I already told you no matter what I say or evidence I present you won’t care.
If your entire family were killed by gun violence and ten million people died tomorrow from preventable gun death you would not care. There is no limit to your lack of humanity. Nothing is going to change your mind.
Tbh with their cultural aversion to firearms in favor of blades, I doubt this claim as well. In any case they’re doing just fine killing themselves without them.
I wouldn’t blame the guns, I’d blame the murderer. If your entire family was hacked up tomorrow would you blame Cutco? Have fun with that.
You are just talking out your ass about Japan. I will tell you something that actually makes sense. Japan eradicated gun crime.

As always you seem to be stuck on the stupid path bringing up a country that proves regulation is effective.
Japan has one of the lowest rates of gun crime in the world. In 2014 there were just six gun deaths, compared to 33,599 in the US
I told you nothing would change your mind, not fucking the truth, and certainly not reality.
