Why gun is easily available in US?

[BADecker]

Even in the US can buy guns over the internet.

Online gun purchases in the United States are very strictly monitored and regulated. It is not like any buffoon can order an AK-47 online. You need to authenticate your identity, and you need to prove that you don't have any criminal record.

Depends on where you live. In Pennsylvania, it is extremely easy. There are very few limitations on getting a gun or a permit to carry one.

Here are some of the regulations in Pennsylvania regarding gun ownership.

1. All handgun buyers in the state must undergo a PICS check at the point of sale.
2. License to Carry Firearms issued on a "shall-issue" basis.
3. Open-carry prohibited in the city of Philadelphia.
4. All private party transfers of handguns must be processed through a licensed dealer

As you can see, enough regulations are in place to prevent abuse of gun ownership.

Are private residences and private land that is inside the territorial borders of Pennsylvania, really in Pennsylvania?

The land and places that Pennsylvania has authority over are public lands. The people on their own private lands are not subject to these Pennsylvania laws.

The people may not know how to fight it in court if public officials try to accuse them of a crime on their own property. But if they knew how things worked, they could beat the State every time.

It's the same with smoking pot... in any State. If it is private property, and the pot is locked up so that a thief can't access it, the State has no authority. However, if the State usurps its authority, and the people are ignorant about how to fight it, the State will win, even though it acts illegally and criminally against the people within its territorial borders.

Because they are not strictly to carry a gun and can purchase easily.Legal to carry a fire arms so that it will defend their self in criminals and bad person,so there is always an available.

I would not trust such advertising. To make for example the barrel need special steel. Where are you going to take? For durability and anti-corrosion often inside chrome plated. All of this at home will not do. Using this machine can only make some parts for weapons. Made so the weapons can break in your hands.

[Mitcsell]

It's so hard to get gun in other developed countries. People even afraid to carry gun in there. But why government of US makes it easy to buy,carry or sell guns? Is it good for the nation or people living there? They mayn't get freedom while walking in dreary places. Isn't it? I even scared of word gun. 

How can you not understand? The more you ban legal weapons the more people will be illegal. Are you ready to pay with his life for such calls? Remember once and for all kills not the weapon that kills people.

I agree. In every country there are black markets for the sale of weapons and sell it often to people with unbalanced psyche for the implementation of their bad plans. People always want something forbidden and adrenaline.

Studies prove, in places where the ownership of guns are highest, crimes are lowest.

I don't think that I could agree with that post. Normally, gun ownership is higher where the crime rates are also high. If the crime rates are low, then there is no need to purchase firearms (that said, in some of the US states such as Vermont, Maine and New Hampshire, the gun ownership is extremely high despite the very low crime rates).

That is quite a speculation on your part, Sithara.

It might be, that prevention (or gun carry in this case) is cultural  in Germany you will get fined for carrying pepper spray, despite ever increasing crime rates, the laws dealing with personal defense did not change at all.

In order to answer this question, you should understand American history, culture and tradition.
100-200 years ago America was wildness and everybody had guns in order to protect themselves.
It was way of life, as you can see in American movies.
Even American constitution confirm such right, that all citizens can have guns.
In this way, America is really very unique country.
Of course, because of it, there are a lot criminal and violence in American society.
Because of this people are even more scared and buying more guns and this circle never ends

Here I completely agree with you. Historically, it so happened that an American citizen was always armed and had the free right to own weapons. Of course, this is strongly influenced by the mentality, because not every people can cope with this perfectly.

[yoseph]

The USA have discovered Human Nature, the more you decline to give humans access to something, the more they crave it. By making it so easily accessible for people to get access to weaponry. Less and less people are getting the guns. I am sure this is the same thing that will happen with marijuana. Its so easily obtainable and soon not many people will crave it as they do now.

Partly I agree with you, If you look at American history, specially after it won its independence from Great Britain, American. They created Bill of Rights and on of them is the right of people to keep and bear arms. But you also have to understand the reason why they put it in place. It was there because the thinking at that time is that everyone can keep and bear arms and can organize together to overthrow any leaders who seems to abuse its power and who often uses that power in cruel and unfair ways.

So if Americans wanted to really restrict gun ownership, it wouldn’t simply have to get Congress to pass a law - it would have to persuade all of the individual states to agree to the change too.Which I think would be very difficult to do now.

I agree with you.
It's very difficult and complex issue.
President Obama tried to change it but couldn't.
To have guns is already way of life for the many people in America, and they feel it's their constitutional right.
Now, with president Trump I don't think that we will see any real changes regarding gun policy.
I hope that at least they will be able to restrict access to guns to young adults, violent or mentally ill people.
It will be progress already if they can achieve it in the near future

This is the weakness of human rights. because of personal interest, everyone has rights. and these rights must be respected.
This is one point which could facilitate easier access of US society weaponry, either illegally or legally.

Actually you have a choice between legal and illegal circulation of weapons. Know the law of conservation of energy and Newton? So reducing the number of legal weapons you increase the number of illegal. Do you want it? I believe that it is impossible to limit the circulation of legal weapons. You don't have the statistics of how many people were killed by legal guns and how many people saved his life. Then what are we talking about? Once again you are listening to populists!

[bra4our]

Its mostly the illegal weapons thats used to cause all the crimes. No one in their right mind would actually purchase a gun legally and use it to commit a crime when they know it can be traced right back at them.

Are you stupid? they already do that. Furthermore it would be very stupid to take the guns from citizens whom legally bought them. This will not only costs america several billions, but will also increase the liquidity of black markets, cartels trading weapons, etcetera.

[darkseid1199]

One thing i have noticed in Human nature is the more you want to restrict them access to something thats when they want to acquire that thing even more. So making it easier for people to buy guns makes sure its not illegally acquired for nefarious purposes.

In my country carrying gun is an offence against the state except government approval forces. Think about what is in mind of those who approved legalized the used of gun in their countries always amazing me. The best society is were there is no crimes, we do not have that society yet, we would have that type of society one day. Gun is not a solution to crime.

All liberals and progressives in favor of gun control should thank Trump.  Since he took office gun sales are way, way down. When the wanna be fascist controller Obama was in power AR15 sales skyrocketed making many rich. Even 22LR bullets went up in price 5x. Now these sit on shelves and nobody cares!

hillary would have kept the boom in gun and bullet sales going!

[darkseid1199]

The Liberals are mostly concerned about making money. Look at Obama a Nobel Peace Prize recipient but he dropped as many as Hitler himself all in the name of fighting terrorism.

[BADecker]

The gun is easily available in the U.S., because many people know how to make guns. The materials are available. The people want guns. That's why there are many guns in the U.S.  The people want them, and they make them.
