All those cartel deaths in Mexico, most of the people dying are regular civilians. There is no right to defend yourself/right to bear arms in Mexico.
While the cartels are running around armed with guns killing civilians and terrorizing the place, the average Joe Shmo has no ability to protect themselves and their families and communities.
The government has disarmed the law abiding citizens and now they are just meat/prey for the armed cartels.
Gun control doesn’t end gun violence, it just makes sure the criminals are the ones who are armed, while making the law abiding people defenceless and to be slaughtered.
