America has a serious violent crime problem which goes hand and hand with poor Impulse Control. The overwhelming number of gun crimes are committed with Illegal guns NOT legal gun owners. Its impulse control NOT gun control. Violent crime = murder, attempted murder, armed robbery, rape, carrying a weapon illegally, assault, car jacking, drug distribution while in possession of a fire arm, assault with deadly weapon, kidnapping. We have an impulse control problem in America that some studies show is directly tied to genetics. ( whatever that means). We have to first narrow down violent criminals into groups. 1) are they male or female? 2) what age brackets? 3) what area’s of the country? 4) do the offenders have a father in the household? There was one more component to the classification of groups, it may have been race. I will check for accuracy.
I think you have some real insight on the gun problem. It's all about impulse control, not gun control.
Brightside, this argument has been made countless times but the anti-Constitutional Democrat party does not want to hear it. The reason this argument fails is because they dont really care about violent crime. They care about removing guns because an un-armed citizenry is easier to control. It is that simple.
You are so right Wildchild. Unfortunately I just read that the majority of violent crime in America is committed by black males. I double and triple checked that information for accuracy and its 100% true. The impulse control issue is real.
How many people have white males like Hitler,Stalin,Truman,Nepolean,Bush 2 etc killed?How much violence has white nations and white people caused throughout the world and history?
Tony Stark We are having an intelligent conversation about problems happening today, not 100 years ago. I dont think too many people are worried about getting robbed by Jesse James or John Dillinger. We are concerned with young black males with no impulse control. Its a huge threat.
