Even if you could ignore the 2nd Amendment and the near-zero chance it could pass, there would be ten million or so guns floating around the black market afterwards.

Also very true but you forget about ammunition, they need ammunition. I suppose we would see people making their own homemade ammunition.

Slightly more whites approve than disapprove of Black Lives matter:

I hate how the media ignored the knockout attacks in NYC and Jersey a couple of years ago, when black kids were targeting anyone who dared to wear a kippah on the street. I stopped wearing my kippah after that since you never know when someone wants to sucker punch you just because of your religion. Those people should've been charged with hate crimes

Australia is 1/10th of population of the U.S. though, probably a lot easier for something like that there than here. There's likely far more gun owners in the U.S. than there are people in Australia.

Me neither, you can support both sides and expect both movements to treat each other with respect. Violence on one side doesn't justify violence on the other

The media kept mentioning them for a while, I though they were overhyping a couple of attacks.

What? Have you even heard of ISIS/ISIL/DEASH or Al Qaeda? Yes it is very right to assume, they are the biggest threat to the entire world right now (apart from Trump)...

The other one that just happened in Minnesota, it does seem the cop was in the wrong. Obviously, BLM is unhappy with that one, and understandably so - but the cop in that situation was Chinese! Doesn't quite work for their racial narrative.
Come on man, the guy was on the ground with his hands tied behind his back. I was cringing throughout the whole video. I feel like in some cases (like Michael Brown) it was justified, but this one was really really ugly and the cops should've been in jail by now

They are huge threats none the else but you are saying Muslims commit the MOST attacks you can't make a statement like that without stats. You can assume all you want but assumptions don't equal fact so it very well may be wrong.
