I realize this is a divisive issue, but it’s clear that these horrific incidents are going to keep happening with shocking regularity. It seems we’ve all collectively shrugged our shoulders and accepted it as the reality going forward.

If access to guns is not a major factor and these people would just go out and make their own IEDs or whatever, why doesn’t that happen outside the US at anything even close to the same rate mass shooting happen in the US?
Do you think that US is the only country in the world where people have mental health issues?
Well, let’s think critically for a second, could there be any other differences at all, like cultural differences or access to health services?
Furthermore, did any of those countries have 600,000,000 guns im 50% of the country’s hands with no registry to say where they are and a culture of complete unwillingness to give them up, and trillions of rounds of ammo, actually more than most country’s police and mil combined, before their attempted bans? It just won’t work here.
Yeah, you covered it below
Which is why
Not that it can’t, but it won’t. Because the general population of the completely unwilling to do anything at all about it.
Hence the meme. It’s a uniquely American thing to be that selfish.
So, should we continue arguing for what “won’t work,” and bicker in perpetuity, or should we maybe attempt to focus on the root causes of violence that actually could make a meaningful impact, at least first?
So what’s the fix for this “root cause”, and how is it easier to achieve than some basic firearm restrictions?
Now see, that’s the thing. You can “achieve more firearms restrictions” by simple tyranny of the majority, but it doesn’t actually necessarily translate to “that shit actually happening” considering the fact that pandora’s box has been opened. But if you want to actually achieve a reduction in the rate of violent crime, you need to attack it at the source. It’s like a severed artery, the tourniquet can stay on for about 4h, but eventually it’ll need to.actually be fixed, or you’ll still just die. If we don’t solve the actual problems the problem won’t actually get solved, you see.
