It’s a multifaceted issue, absolutely, and in that you’re partially correct. Guns, though, provide the means to cause as many and as high numbered mass shootings.
So, let’s take a multifaceted approach and: implement common sense gun control measures to make it more challenging for civilians (who are very specifically not a ‘well organized militia’) to purchase weapons of this kind; let’s implement better social medicine programs that include mental health services; and let’s also address class warfare, racism, sexism, and attacks on the LGBTQ, minority, and immigrant communities and the degradation of the separation of church and state (which is extremely in favor of the Christian religion instead of recognizing that our population is multi-religion and/or degrees of agnostic or atheist).
The system as it is is built to continue to either break us or cause strife at our level… so that they can continue to keep run our rights into the ground to the benefit of their wallets.
Don’t ignore the means by which a thing happens merely to address the causes, especially in bad faith so as to redirect the message in favor of protecting your outdated and misinterpreted ‘Right to Bear [sic] Arms’ over other’s Right to fucking live without being shot by a nutjob.
Edit: I am a gun owning liberal who is also in the armed forces. Just to provide some background to my above statements.
Take your “As a Veteran…” argument and cram it. I’ve seen more ignorant POGs running that line to get internet credit than I care to remember. Your opinion carries no more weight than anyone else’s and that most definitely includes regular civilians.
Wow, dude (or dudette). You’re seriously jumping to conclusions there. But, you’ve absolutely shown your cards as being a troll here in the discussion. Thank you for taking the time to clarify your position.
If you didn’t want to be insulted you shouldn’t have been insulting…Sir. Interfacing with the public should have been covered somewhere in your ROTC program.
