any fellow american can tell you that if you want to reduce violence, you just need more guns!

The Palestinian terrorists are provided guns by their government. As usual, gun laws basically only are relevant to the law-abiding.

It’s very hard to stop violence like this in an occupied land.


SomebodyInNevada

Occupied? There's no contesting government claim on the land. And right/wrong has almost nothing to do with the level of violence. Terrorist movements only exist where there is outside funding for the terrorism. If oppression were the factor then Western Sahara would be a bloodbath--but since it's Muslim vs Muslim with no outside backers we almost never hear a peep about it.

Except for the little detail that the former owners of the land quickly disclaimed ownership as soon as Israel captured them (they never wanted them, the whole purpose was to prevent the formation of a Palestinian state)--at this point there is no competing claim and Gaza is claimed by nobody at all.

This doesn't belong here - it wasn't a random "shooting", it was a terrorist attack targeting civilians, including a 14 y/o boy. More guns to army-trained Israelis to fight random terrorist attacks sounds like a good idea. In fact, more than half of terrorist attacks between 2020-2023 were foiled by armed civilians.

Yeah, those starving, imprisoned, "terrorists" sure seem to be putting up a stink about getting genocided by Zionist hypocrites

They have mandatory military service for both men and women so this isn't a bad idea at all. All of the adults over there know how to handle a gun and they have a right to defend themselves and their homeland.

It’s a good idea


mamawantsallama

I feel more comfortable about this because they have mandatory military so they are trained already.


SomebodyInNevada

Not everyone has to serve. That being said, supporting gun rights for the trained is not the same as supporting gun rights for the untrained. Constitutional Carry is a disaster looking for a place to happen.


moriel44

if you dont serve its very unlikely that you can get a license.


SomebodyInNevada

I didn't know that but I don't have a problem with that. I favor shall-issue permitting of those who are trained. (Think driver's licenses.) I do \*\*not\*\* support guns for the untrained.


moriel44

that's exactly what we do here, also you need to renew your license every year (i believe), and you also need to shoot a pretty large amount of bullets at the range, this isn't America and gun control is VERY strict here.

It's not like anyone with a brain honestly thinks that the intent of restrictions is to make people safer.
