Okay, but I think that attitude explains why your country is in the state it is. You don't seem to have moved on from the Wild West in some respects.
And you think that's the guns' fault? Heh!
Only if the fix was that easy.
Yes it is the gun fault, because all the mass shootings have involved guns, not lollipops.
And all the mass-murders have involved humans. Even before we had guns to do mass-shootings with.

Everyday here in England we are hearing nearly everday now about how there is one mass shooting after another in the US.
You should consider moving to Switzerland. They have way more guns and way less crime/murder/violence than the UK.

No, I think it's your fault, and your national gun passion. How can you accept that you need a gun to feel safe?
Good thing I care much more about being safe than feeling safe.

You don't have the right to own an AR15 here, just as much as I don't have the right to rape your wife there.
Do i understand?
And which law (if broken) would be a victimless crime?

So you are equating ownership of an AR15 with rape?

Then why doesn't the US take on Switzerlands example of reducing or elimininating crime/murder/violence?

Ok, so why is there a problem in the US ..it's in the news daily, mass shooting almost happening on a daily basis now. Why?
Fuck knows. Why isn't a useful question.
"What can we do to stop it?" is a more useful question.

But you have absolutely no control over being safe anywhere or at anytime where-ever you are, or whatever you are doing. Just being alive is a huge risk, a risk we are all taking. Even as we reproduce, we are gambling with another persons safety and well being. We are our only predator, and yet we have no problem with that, because the proof is so self-evident everytime we reproduce, we willingly invite someone else to run the risky guantlet that is our predatory nature.
I guess we'll only stop when we have all had enough of the hurting we cause each other. So far, we seem to be fine with it, nothing seems to change much.
