So tell me again how the easy availability of firearms keeps Americans safe...
It is purely a coincidence that countries with more restrictive gun laws than the US (but still make it possible for people to own guns) have fewer school shootings, mass shootings, gun deaths, and gun crimes than the US.
Obviously nothing to do with better vetting, different views about gun ownership, banning some types of guns, better mental health services, and so on. Nope, nothing to do with that at all.
For what it’s worth, the last mass shooting before the Christchurch massacre was in 1997, a gap of 22 years.
