Some of the cities with the worst gun violence have the strictest gun laws. While there are some cities with less restrictions with similar levels of violence, that just shows that more restrictions don't lead to less violence

I agree with the author and I believe our rights and liberties are more important than security and safety.

I agree, if we ban guns now we don't have protection from criminals with guns. If they're already doing illegal things they're going to buy guns anyways. Some people need guns for hunting to support their families.

I agree guns are not what kill people people kill people. Take the UK for example they have a signfiicant rate of stabbings instead of gun violence and so violence still occurs. People kill people not guns. Furthermore gun control impeads on constitutional rights of citizens.

If an act of gun violence happens in these cities, the police should have the responsibility to arrest these criminals, give them a proper punishment based on the extent of their crime, and then dispose of the guns that these criminals used, never to be used again. More guns or less gun restrictions may not lead to "less violence" but less restrictions don't lead to any more safety.

That is wrong. Most cities with a lot of gun violence also have a lot of gang violence and rime that plays into gun violence. More restrictions just make it harder for bad individuals to get their hands on guns.
