Discussion Would you still be pro liberal gun laws if they could not be used for suicide?

I think strict gun laws like in Germany are the right thing to do. Many in this forum envy Americans for their option to ctb with a gun.
I prefer living in Germany because of welfare, the better health care system and less shootings. I think the government could not be stopped with guns anyway if hell broke loose.

I generally have nothing against guns, but I don't want gun ownership to be too easy.
I live in Poland and I would maybe liberalize gun ownership a little, but only a little.
I'm glad I don't hear gunfire outside my window and I wouldn't want to change that.

Europe has its own problems.
We don't need to import problems from the US.

No. Civilized societies don't need guns.

About half or more of all (legal) gun deaths in the US are suicides.

What the data says about gun deaths in the U.S.

More Americans died of gun-related injuries in 2021 than in any other year on record, according to the latest available statistics from the CDC.

I'm for freedom and human rights, including the right to bear arms to protect oneself, so yes.

I was never pro-liberal gun laws in the first place. I'd honestly prefer for my country to have even stricter gun control laws (and our gun control laws are already stricter in comparison to the ones in the US, but that's not saying much).
