Here’s What Happened When A Terrorist Attacked LGBT People In A Country With Strict Gun Laws

Like Florida shooter Omar Mateen, Yishai Schlissel was a homophobic extremist determined to kill gay people. But Schlissel, unlike Mateen, lived in a country with strict gun laws: Israel. When Schlissel attacked a gay pride parade in Jerusalem a year ago, he was armed with a knife, not an assault rifle.

He stabbed six people, killing a 16-year-old girl before he was apprehended. Mateen used a semiautomatic assault-style rifle to shoot more than 100 people in a Florida gay nightclub early Sunday, killing 49, before law enforcement officers shot him to death.

There is no such thing as a right to bear arms in Israel. To get a gun, an individual has to apply for a license, show a need for a firearm (either for work or personal safety), demonstrate an ability to safely use a gun, and pass a mental health check. Licenses are only granted to individuals who have been Israeli residents for more than three years and who are over 21 years of age if they served in the military, and 27 if they didn’t. Even after obtaining permission to buy a gun, the government limits the amount of ammunition an individual can purchase.

But it makes a good point

America is being held hostage by an amendment created by slaveholders and is a relic of mentality that should have been eliminated along with slavery

In a few weeks or maybe a month or two there will be another anecdotal slaughter in the USA using an assault weapon.
Just my guess.

You make a good point. Florida is gun crazy.

Another thing is a Muslim went on a rampage in Paris and he was only able to kill two people because all he could get was a knife.

If gun control laws worked, there would be little gun crime...However, terrorism would be alive and well without guns.......Talk of gun control now is a deflection away from Islamoterrorism...Liberals are always predictable.......... :rollseyes:

Yup. The 9/11 hijackers did not require guns to murder more than 3000 people.

Translation: It goes against my preconceived notions and narrative despite the fact that I've used anecdotal evidence before, so neener, neener, I'm going to move the goal posts.

Ah yes, the last utterance of a person with paranoid delusions that the government is going to "come take my guns". :rollseyes: If I had a dollar for every time I heard that growing up around gun owners, or for every single one in my hometown..would be a billionaire.

And a poor comparison at that. Wonder why the OP didn't compare the Orlando massacre with the Bataclan Theater attack in Paris or the Utøya massacre in Norway?

or any other of these mass killings in Israel where guns are highly restricted.

Avivim school bus bombing
Bat Mitzvah massacre
2013 Beersheba shootings
2002 Beit She'an attack
2001 Immanuel bus attack
Island of Peace massacre
June 2016 Tel Aviv shooting
Lod Airport massacre
Mercaz HaRav massacre
2009 Tel Aviv gay centre shooting

Apparently these comparisons don't fit the narrative.

Strict guns laws in the USA? Too late now every crazy in the USA has an assault rifle.

Once you put it out there you can't call it back.

Ever wonder why the Russian, and Muslim population in the USA is armed and has fenced security in the homes?

Sure there a those who can't afford the fenced security but they are the ones leading the hate parade.
