Would have to write several books instead of a WikiAnswer, but the problems are rooted in a lack of values, lack of family structure, lack of personal responsibility, and the acceptance of criminal conduct as normal. It is not gun crime, it is criminal conduct. People, not things.
No
US obviously because of gun crime they should put more laws on guns duuh
Check the FBI Uniform Crime Report
Less than people would have you believe. Violent crime in the US is at the lowest point in 20 years. Areas with the highest crime rates typically are also the areas with the most gun control laws.
The impact of the right to carry a gun on crime levels in the US is a topic of debate. Some studies suggest that allowing individuals to carry firearms can deter crime by giving potential victims the means to defend themselves. However, other research indicates that increased gun availability can also lead to more gun-related violence and homicides. Factors such as gun control laws, socioeconomic conditions, and cultural attitudes towards guns also play a role in influencing crime rates.
since the gun was fired in the us, the crime would be under the jurisdiction of the us.
Yes. Most cities have more onerous gun control laws than the United States does. However, many of them still have higher crime rates than the US does, and within the US, the states and cities with the strictest gun control laws often have the highest crime rates, such as Chicago and Washington, D.C.
A record is considered.
IF the battery was for a crime of domestic violence, you may not possess a firearm anywhere in the US.
It is not, at least in the US. It has been decreasing for several years. Go read the FBI Uniform Crime Report.
You don't. First, in MOST states of the US, there is no government registration of firearms, so there is no "connecting" to a person's name. Second- not to be rude- but if you are not a law enforcement officer with probable cause to investigate a crime- it is none of your business.
Under Title 18, US code, section 922, a person convicted of ANY felony is prohibited from possessing a firearm anywhere in the US. Federal law. Whether the crime was violent or not MAY have a bearing on whether gun rights may be restored at a later time, but does not affect the prohibition. You should consult an attorney licensed in your state- I am a gun collector, not attorney.
