WTF is the point of even replying if you’re going to ignore every single thing I wrote?
Providing mental health service at no cost would be a great way to handle suicide, but it would still not solve the actual gun problem.
This is the most ass-backwards hot take I’ve ever read. “Addressing the root cause of the problem would not solve the problem; we must myopically focus on a symptom of it!”
Tools are not the problem – they can’t be, by definition, as they are inanimate objects with no agency. The violence itself is the problem! How are you failing to comprehend that?
Edit: I think I’ve figured out how to explain it in a way you people might understand: arguing that access to guns makes people kill is exactly like arguing that women wearing sexy clothes makes people rape. Your argument really is just the liberal counterpart to that sort of right-wing nonsense, and equally defective.
What part of number one killer of children are you not getting.
You have no answers because the only way to reduce child death is to remove guns from the equation.
What part of a million Americans dead in the last twenty years at the feet of gun worshippers is not getting through.
Your only solution is more guns, guess what we already have more guns than every woman, man, child, and baby in the US. How many more guns until we are safe?
The problem is violence is worse because of easy access to guns. Guns are literally the problem and we can see this in every country that does not have a ridiculous problem with gun proliferation.
Worse it is not just our problem. Mexico’s gun violence is also directly linked to proliferation of guns in the US.
First of all, unless you’re cherry-picking only the last year or so, the number one killer of children for decades has been car crashes.
Second, I didn’t say a single goddamn thing about “more guns” and you fucking know it. Don’t you dare put words in my mouth.
You need to rethink your bad-faith bullshit. You’re so deranged and frothing you can’t even address what I’m actually saying and lash out at some kind of imagined boogeyman instead.
Let me be perfectly clear: I don’t give a fuck about guns. I give a fuck about actually solving actual problems by addressing root causes.
First facts are facts, number one killer of children. Before it was number two? Is that seriously your argument. Why are you dodging the truth.
Second, did you say we need less guns. If so I agree, if not I disagree.
You need to see past the propaganda and years of gun lobbying and lies that have made people think guns are a solution to a problem rather than the problem.
You seem to care an awful lot about guns, for not caring about them.
