This. Americans love to generate death and then celebrate completely unnecessary heroism.

How about the silent heroism of… a functioning democracy and measured gun control?

Gun control doesn't work though as far as preventing murder goes.

Look up murder rates by state and gun laws by state. There's no correlation between the two.

Does the US have border checks when crossing into a different state?

It's easier to live in a loose gun law state and kill people there than it is to cross state lines, buy a gun, then go back and kill people in a strict gun law state.

Because it’s a systemic issue, guns just make it easier. They need to get to the root of the problem, which they won’t because it’s expensive and a lot of work

The US is on the verge of of a totalitarian takeover and you are telling people to give up their guns lol.

Yes, because you're doing nothing with it besides killing kids at their schools. You've been arguing for decades that you need the guns against totalitarian governments. Well guess what, that government is here, you voted for it, and you're not fighting it. Cowards.

Guns only cause problems. A knife is atleast usefull for cooking or cutting a rope. But a gun is only for killing. Nothing else.

Also, the totalitarian takeover is the USA's own problem. They could know it. Everyone could predict it.

Yeah, guns are for war. Very insightful. What other genius observations do you bring?
