Well that's what you think, I just don't have the time to write/do a whole study on the matter.

The guy in your video seems to think that he is very clever and say that others have agenda.

But I could also say that he's biased. He offers absolutely no definition at all of what is considered to be a violent crime, which should be the base of a reasonable argumentation.
(Ex. an hold up with a knife is probably considered as a violent crime but is nothing compared to mass shootings.)
Edit: Oberon made my point.

Also, he says that crimes in the U.S. has decreased over time but forget to mention that crimes in other countries ALSO decreased.

The only thing I agree with him is at the end when he says that part of the solution is the economy (but that's a very complex problem to resolve).

To me all this is so, so simple. The more guns there will be, the more uses of guns there will be. And a background check on people with mental issues before selling them firearms seems to me fairly reasonable.

If I ever travel to your country to go to Disneyland with my kids, will I have to rent an AR-15

I kid of course...

Meo, your biased as well. Don't pretend your not.

Let's be honest, EVERYBODY in this thread is biased. If you didn't have a bias, you wouldn't be involving yourself.
