This chart shows rates of gun homicide in Europe.

This article I quote above shows the firearm homicide rate for whites in the USA

You can see that the white firearm homicide rates in the USA range up above 4 in red USA states, and above 1 in USA blue states, while those in Europe are well below 1. The facts are different from what Bob says, and correspond with what I say.
The wind is at our back now. There is no more need to hold back on this issue. It is a key voting issue on the blue side and even among some on the red side. Gun laws are going to get stricter. The 2nd amendment is safe for now, and confiscations will be rare. But if the gun nuts resist common sense gun laws, the public attitude will shift as gun deaths and massacres continue to escalate, and the public may well support confiscation and repeal in the future. And with each new massacre, more organizations and activists are created to work against lax gun laws, and more calls for prohibition and repeal occur.
It's up to you guys, Bob. Which do you want? Common sense gun laws, or confiscation, stricter prohibition and repeal of the 2nd?
