Yes you need to accept that. Even if you got rid of all guns I do not believe that you will end mass violence in this country, people will simply find other ways to lash out and kill people in order to vent their insanity and evil upon the world.San Lumen wrote:
Yeah let’s just accept gun violence and mass shootings are normal and repeal all gun laws while we are at it. Name another country that has mass shootings and gun violence on the scale of the US. I’ll wait
If you want another example of a country with mass shootings and gun violence? Try Mexico. Our Southern neighbor that shares many of the same cultural ills as the US, drug problems, gangs, people with a chip on their shoulder mad against the world, and guns are even banned there, yet people still kill people.
The problem is that the US is more like Mexico than it is like Europe, there are whole parts of the US that are Mexico level in poverty, economic troubles, and criminal and drug conditions.
It is those locations where the vast majority of gun violence happens.
And those locations will never follow gun laws. They'll smuggle in guns just as easily as they'll smuggle in drugs, and they will keep slaughtering each other.
Let's also not forget how woefully inadaqute our healthcare system is, you know the healthcare system that could prevent such things?
I know you're completely blinded about life in the US outside New York City, but get a reality check San Lumen, most of the US is not New York City.
The US has income inequality that is nearly 3rd world level at times, why do you act surprised then when the US has gun violence on the level of a 3rd world country in those areas?
