I agree Americans should be allowed to have fire arms to defend their land from invasion, our government and mass shootings.
But for once would someone actually skin a smoke wagon to STOP a mass shooting?
I'm not idiotic enough to think by simply passing laws prohibiting the ownership of firearms that they'll be going anywhere either, of course. Fire arms are too prolific in America already. Like what we pass a law and POOF all the guns vanish into the air? Hell naw.
So then what do we do? If we choose in favor of our freedom and right to bear arms, then we seem to be acquiescing to the occasional rampage. If we choose against our right to bear arms the outcome seems to be the same, so what do we do?
This is why I've been saying for years, the problem isn't legal, it's social.
It's societal.
What proof do I have?
Sure enough I log onto social networking today and what do I see? Millions of ignorant fucking Americans missing the point entirely and continuing to argue for or against, guns, inanimate fucking objects. Because someone has to be right, but neither side is.
We should be asking ourselves about the psychopaths holding the guns *most of em home grown* and what we can do to prevent that.
The occasional psycho seems inevitable, I'm sure every country has a murderer. But I believe that if we get a good start now, watching our kids, making sure they grow up right and get the help they need to have a future that isn't all doom and gloom, a future that isn't so hate filled and desperate. Teach them to look forward to the future and connect them to the world.
Maybe then we'll have less of these detached assholes going on rampages, willing to throw away their life and the lives of dozens of other citizens.
