i dont even know where to begin with you.

Why? Easier to just rely on weapon force instead of talking? You brute.

Then again guns are illegal in iraq, therefore there is no gun violence. OH WAIT FUCK

It is when the state does nothing that gun bans do not work. Obviously, the state of Iraq is a broken one. Of course you can get guns easily in Iraq since the black market goes smoothly.
You probably just pretend to not see that there were guns in Iraq before. Would you let go off your expensive weaponry just because there is some law saying you must not have one? Of course not. The state has to use force. The state of Iraq has no force.
Here in Germany, where guns are harder to get, gun crimes are uncommon, prepared to the USA.
