  • Majority of gun deaths are from suicides 66+%. The next largest group is gang and drug related. The majority of the people you just called out, will never fire their gun…and those that do, will be shooting paper targets.

    The reality is that our gun violence is from poverty, lack of education and a lack of safety nets.

    That and the police kill usually 1k people on average a year via guns. So 1/40 of our gun deaths (including suicides) are from the police.













  • Using USA as a representative of the world is delusional.

    Assuming that people are magically different is delusional.

    • Bike lane failed in US, it didnt in Europe, it took over cars.

    The USA is massive… literally a good chunk of the Western Europe fits into Texas.

    • EV failed in US, didn’t everywhere else

    Uhh what? We have EVs here, trump is trying his best to snuff them out but that’s not happening.

    • Gun control worked everywhere else, not in USA.

    Australia…had forced buyback in the 90s after the port shooting…60% turn in rate, 1mil owned arms by civs…today 3+Mil firearms owned by citizens in Australia…so did it really work? Or did society get less violent because of the education and safety nets that Australia has?

    • Health

    Yea…and that’s not a ban?

    • Education

    This is not just a USA problem. Kids are getting dumber everywhere because of tech.

    • Democracy

    ???

    Seems like a you problem

    Seems more like you’re just projecting…
