    It’s almost like normalising access to guns from a young age is part of your country’s issue with shooting each other all the time.

      The issue is people who feel like they have nothing to lose taking their frustration out on society.

      It’s why there are other nations with comparable gun ownership rates as the US without comparable amounts of gun violence.

      Congratulations, though. You’re doing what the ruling class wants: squabbling over bullshit to distract you from the real issues.
