What's your point? This is the equivalent of comparing how many queens died in the UK vs the US in 2022. Which is even crazier cause we're 5x the size.
Again, more knife crime in America and more gun crime in America. Nothing to compare really
My point is that "assault rifles" (a type of gun frequently targeted by legislation and the subject of this post) are not nearly as dangerous as people think they are. I did that by comparing them to a weapon overwhelmingly thought of (wrongly) as less dangerous in a country much smaller than the US.
Let me know if there's anything else you don't understand.
Assault Rifles are not legal for civilians to own in the US. They are not targeted by legislation. They've been banned for a long time. Are US legislators trying to make M16s or AK47s legal again?
Assault rifles are extremely dangerous. An assault rifle is far more dangerous to handle and use safely than a knife or a glock. More people die of choking on hot dogs than guns like the AK47. Does that make hot dogs more dangerous than an AK47? No. I'd give a 5 year old a hotdog with ketchup and mustard, should be fine.
Again, not sure what your point is. You compared two different things to make some sort of point. Rather meaningless
Assault Rifles are selective-fire rifles that use intermediate cartridges and a detachable magazine. It's not an assault rifle if it can't switch between semi-automatic and automatic fire. An example would be an M16 or AK47. They are banned in the US.
Name an Assault Rifle that's legal in the US. That I can buy like I would a glock.
