This isn’t even low hanging fruit. This is fruit that’s been on the ground rotting for a few months that no one is going to pick up and eat anyway. Let’s throw ineffective solutions at the problem and when they fail go, “weeeeell, since you can buy a 3d printer and a gun online, let’s just do background checks for internet access”
That was sort of my point. I'm going to go out on a limb and say without any research that bears kill more people every year than 3D printers.
“We’ve done absolutely nothing, and nothing has changed, guess school shootings are the new norm, get used to it”
Guns are not the problem people are the problem. People do stupid shit and hurt others. Its all mental heath related but no politicians want to touch mental heath with a 10 foot pole every mass shooting has been from somebody mentally unwell. Guns are like cars, when used correctly they help the people using it and people around them protecting against criminals that illegally got guns and other illegal acts. Also if you don't believe me on that look at south side of new York and Chicago Illinois. They both have large death counts do to gun violents. But the crazy part is guns have heavily restrictions especially in Illinois. But the criminals still get illegal firearms. And just like a car if used incorrectly can kill and hurt people.
That's because the underlying causes of the poor mental health are things like inequality, consumerism, and car dependency (not just the burdensome cost, frustration of wasting time in traffic, and poor health from lack of exercise, but also the direct harm to mental health from replacing third places with non-places). Since pretty much all the politicians (of either party) are full steam ahead on the crony-capitalism train, of course they have no interest in solving any of those.
“sir were going to need to do a background check, so you can buy this book that has the word “GUN" in it."
There are more deadlier things that are way less expensive I can buy at the local tracker supply with not even a second thought from the cashier. Let’s just limit the public from scary things like “3D printers”.
There fighting Human ingenuity. And can't win
