Gun control shooting
Gun control shooting (shooting, mass shooting, mass murder) | |
---|---|
A shooting that brings about tighter gun control or debate about it. |
A gun control shooting is an event which triggers tighter gun control, confiscation of guns, and/or does intensify the debate about these things (especially in the United States with it's Second Amendment). Some of these may be false flag attacks, designed to do exactly that.

Why US gun laws get looser after mass shootings |
A 2020 study in the ]]Journal of Public Economics]] found out that a mass shooting leads to a 15% increase in the number of firearm bills introduced within a state in the year after a mass shooting, on average and that, when looking at bills that were actually enacted into law, the impact of mass shootings depends on the party in power. Laws that loosen gun restrictions increase in the aftermath of a mass shooting in states with Republican-controlled legislatures, with no significant effect of mass shootings on laws enacted when there is a Democrat-controlled legislature, nor do we find a significant effect of mass shootings on the enactment of laws that tighten gun restrictions.[1]

Mass shooting | “The government encouraged the manufacture and importation of military firearms for the criminals to use. This is intended to foster a feeling of insecurity, which would lead the American people to voluntarily disarm themselves by passing laws against firearms. Using drugs and hypnosis on mental patients in a process called Orion, the CIA inculcated the desire in these people to open fire on schoolyards and thus inflame the antigun lobby. This plan is well under way, and so far is working perfectly. The middle class is begging the government to do away with the 2nd amendment.” | William Cooper | 1991 |
