Not an American, so this is without prejudice.
Either gun deaths are a fact of life or unacceptable. There is no in-between or grey area. It is hugely frustrating to see these shitstained mavens of policy and law swing wildly between these contradictory extremes. Pick a fucking side.
When you are famous you can do more than just grab people by their pussies you know. You can become president and make all kinds of excuses as to why the rules don't apply to you. Gun issues are only one of hundreds of things that these guys are wildly hypocritical about. If it weren't so serious it would be humerus as it applies to literally almost anything they talk about. The dumb part is voting for them doesnt get you invited to their privilege. Quite the opposite.
Man, if only it were the politicians. Much of the public has some excuse for ‘needing’ their firearms. It could be self defense, it could be for fun, it could be to kill cops and government officials when ‘tyranny’ arrives (both sides play this part). Add the NRA to the mix along with a sprinkle of legalized corruption in the form of lobbying and BOOM. Deadlock.
