You forgot one important factor. What happens when law abiding citizens give up their guns, and the State decides what is best for them? There were huge experiments conducted in the 20th century by Russia, China, Germany, etc... that indicates it doesnt go well for the citizens... Something to think about when the U.S.A. is being run by "literally Hitler", Canada has Fidel Castro's (or Castro's buddy Pierre) son as P.M., and France and Germany are threatening everybody in the EU to conform to there destructive agenda "or else"...
you just referred Sri Lanka..my country...
I think there are so many different variables and situations that you could analyze in relation to this topic and this episode only scratched the surface with what seems like flimsy data vs more flimsy data. It’s really hard to collect stats on events that don’t happen due to any factor. And I understand this is a replay episode but since they brought it up because of the synagogue shooting, I would have like to have heard analysis on mass shootings but they never mention it. I love the show but I think this episode was a little weak compared to others.
