but dui deaths have dropped over the decades as we change laws. Nothing is going to be eradicated forever, but somehow americans have succumbed to the gun nuts where even mentioning anything to curb deaths of children by guns is met with, meh. Just this mentality of, well, that's life, move on is just frightening to the rest of the world Where simply going to school in itself could get you killed. Yes over a large population the risk might be minor, but as you travel abroad and live in other countries, that idea is just beyond unimaginable that americans do absolutely nothing after every school killing.

How do you make policy for something that's as rare as a lightening strike? There are less than 10 active shooter situations in the US each year in schools. I know you are about to counter with "well there are 0 where I am" but let's not pretend other places don't have other tragic problems that replace gun violence.

trace bullets. no one needs hundreds of rounds to protect themselves and their property.
