I consider the 2nd Amendment the most important policy in human history. I believe if that goes away, the end result would be untold millions of deaths.

Do you think more relaxed gun laws would result in less deaths, or is this more of a boolean situation where the exact strictness of gun laws as it exists in the US today does not result in untold millions of deaths, but making them any more strict would unavoidably result in millions of deaths?

It depends on how. If law-abiding citizens are allowed to carry in places (most places) they currently are not, I think gun deaths would decline. If the laws that are already on the books about cracking down on criminals with guns were more adhered to, I think gun deaths would decline.

Definitely not boolean. I'm not sure the kind of distribution it would be called, but the tail is fat.

I think that if China, USSR, and Germany had a 2nd Amendment, both in law and in the heart of the culture, the atrocities that resulted in over 100 million deaths would not have occurred. I think countries being on the precipice of potential genocide will happen in the future. I think it won't happen in America as long as we have the 2nd Amendment, and that since WW2, the 2nd Amendment protects the rest of the world because of the US military's position.

Wow

I'm not sure Iraquis, Syrians, Libyans, Afghanis, Pakistanis, Somalis, Yemenis, Mexicans etc. would agree with how your precious second amendment protected them
