that's just what michael moore tells you

Wrong. In Bowling for Columbine, he said there were just as many guns in Canada as there are the US so guns are not the problem, it is the people.

This is the typical Moore hater response. Never seen him movies or anything from him but hate him because someone told you to.
Wait, I've seen both of his big movies. It was racism right? Racist white parents raise their kids thinking guns are alright because they're afraid of blacks...that's the gist I got

He never really gave a solid answer....

Corect. He never really did give a conclusive answer but explored what made America different that other countries in an attempt to come up with some possible explanations. The big differences that he pointed out were.

1. Guns are loved in the US more than any other industrialized nation.
2. The US has a huge gun lobby.
3. Poor people live like crap here. I don't know about this comparison. I went to Toronto recently and I though their projects were equally as crappy.
4. US media gives a ton of air time to stories that instill fear in citizens.
5. He did mention racism but I don't remember how big of a deal he made of it.

Here is a question for you, what do you do to a pack of wild animals going around killing live stock, You hunt them down and kill them.

That is what you need to do to these gangs, they have the mentality of a pack of wild animals. Corner them in an alley and kill them.
