(9,148 posts)You don't understand that guns are far more efficient at mowing high numbers of people down instantly than other forms of violence and weapons? Do you think the guy who murdered 60 people and wounded more than 400 at that Las Vegas concert in 2017 would have been able to wipe out all those people from his hotel suite with a knife, like he did with his gun? And that is just one example a disgracefully long list of shootings in this country.
Gun humpers have destroyed people's peace of mind in this country. I can't even go to a movie or a mall or a concert or an school event without thinking about some fucking man (and it's almost always a man) shooting up the place. We have neighbors who have two young adult kids. One was at the site of a mass shooting at a concert (in Washington State) and one was on a college campus where there was a mass shooting. That would be absolutely unheard of in any other "advanced" country. One of my kids is looking to emigrate, in part because of the gun violence here.
You'd better hope that you or someone in your family doesn't get blown away by some nut with a gun.
SMDH at your attitude.
