New deflection: parents need to teach their kids conflict resolution skills

2. It's never the guns.

There's not a single scenario I can think of where they'll actually blame the proliferation of guns.

3. Before the 1980s, we had troubled kids, but no daily mass shootings.

And it wasn't because parents did a better job.

Firearm manufacturers, in response to declining sales of handguns, began selling assault rifles in the civilian market in the 1980s. https://www.americanprogress.org/article/assault-weapons-high-capacity-magazines-must-banned/

It's the ARs.
