Who wants a gun ffs. It seems so ridiculous that people feel like they need to defend themself from day to day life.
The issue perhaps is mid set from a young age. Forget the gun part. People committing the crimes have become somehow mentally I'll. What is causing people to have a bleak outlook on life is the root of the problem. The guns are a band aid solution.

It sets a dont f**k with me mind set from an early age. Quite a negative and ugly outlook on life. If people where taught in schools to help each other and not to compete with each other would these problems exist?

Clearly it’s the culture over there. As people will regularly point out, Switzerland have more guns per capita than the USA, yet have a very low gun crime rate.

The USA however have a very large lower class (poor) and within that class, a high proportion of Hispanic and African-Americans. Tertiary Education in that country is virtually inaccessible to some and hence there is a generational cycle of poverty. No wonder merkins look for shortcuts. They do crime as guns are free to buy. Merkins who get rolled also buy guns to protect themselves from the armed. Round and round we go.

Meanwhile the billion $ gun market funds the NRA who do a stellar job of maintaining the rage.

Original Codral ftw!!

I asked the girl at the counter where the cold and flu stuff was and she said, "You want the original Codral?" Obviously people are working out that this new stuff without pseudoephedrine is rubbish.
