Liberal Democracy

Strongly agree

No, only for criminals and the mentally ill

Most liberal democracies would agree with restricting gun access for criminals and the mentally ill, as this is a common-sense measure to protect public safety. For example, the European Union has implemented the European Firearms Directive, which includes restrictions for these groups.

Yes, require strict background checks, psychological testing, and training

Agree

Yes

Agree

Yes, but only by closing the gun show loophole

Closing the gun show loophole is a measure that many liberal democracies, particularly in the United States, would support as it ensures that all gun purchasers undergo background checks. This measure has been proposed and debated in the U.S. Congress multiple times.

Agree

No, but increase penalties for gun-related crimes

Increasing penalties for gun-related crimes could be supported by some liberal democracies as a deterrent for criminal activity. However, this approach may not address the root causes of gun violence and may not be the primary focus for all liberal democracies.

Slightly agree

No, only for assault weapons

Some liberal democracies may support restrictions specifically on assault weapons, as they are often associated with mass shootings and higher levels of gun violence. However, this approach may not be universally supported within the ideology.

Disagree

No, and the government should pass a national “stand your ground” law

A national 'stand your ground' law would likely be seen as too permissive by many liberal democracies, as it could potentially lead to more gun violence. However, some liberal democracies, like the United States, have individual states with 'stand your ground' laws.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and ban all guns from public use

Banning all guns from public use would be seen as too extreme by most liberal democracies, as it infringes on individual rights and freedoms. However, some countries with liberal democratic systems, like the United Kingdom, have implemented strict gun control measures that significantly limit public access to firearms.
