Fine. Let's talk about this recent shooting in Florida. Can we at least agree that you don't have enough information (at this point) to know where and how this murderer acquired the gun(s) he used?
Boru
No, sorry, the issue that needs to be faced is what I said. We need to stop allowing one industry, one lobby and one party controlling the narrative.
You won't be able to effectively keep them out of the wrong hands, as long as we let those 3 groups monopolize our laws.
Unless you face the bigger picture first, you wont be able to address individual situations.
No different than a farmer over tilling their field long term and depleting the nutrients to the point the soil is useless.
Nothing you want to suggest now is going to work effectively unless the long term climate/attitude changes.
I am all for solutions, I am simply saying to get to those solutions you have to look at the long term picture.
