There are more murdered or more saved life due to the sale of firearms?

Question

In U.S.A. you can buy a pistol at the supermarket, beacause "you have to defense yourself"... But if you kill anyone whit that pistol?

Answer 1

I don't think they sell pistols in supermarkets.

Answer 2

you have the right to defend yourself and to have firearms or guns at home, this is in the constitution... but murders are outlaw, of course, altough you don't murder a person who's trying to kill or hurt you, by accident.

Answer 3

Well it is estimated firearms are used defensively 2 to 2.5 million times a year in the United States

They are about 30,000 firearm related deaths a year in the United States

This means firearms are 80 times more likely to save a life than to take a life. Criminals don't legally purchase pistols at the supermarket because they can easily obtain them on the streets or steal them.

I don't think there should be any waiting periods. I already own several handguns yet I still have to do a 7 day waiting period to buy another one? What the heck is the point of that?

Background checks are done instantly by computer. You are either a prohibited person or you aren’t a prohibited person. The waiting period does not make the background check any more thorough.

Answer 4

You need to learn more about the U.S.

    Most states have a 7 day waiting period to buy a gun ... This is so a background check can be done on the buyer ....

The problem is that criminals get a hold of guns ILLEGALLY .

When a criminal sells a gun to some one no waiting period is required just cash.

  And NO , you can't get a gun at the supermarket.

    

     Great picture ...Mr. Billy**** ... a picture is indeed with a thousand words ... but all I can give you is a thumbs up!

Answer 5

..anyway, I don't think that 7 days are enough to find out if someone is ok to buy guns or others things like that..

Finally I think that if you buy a gun, one day you will use it..or not ?

Have a nice day , dear son..;-)
