In my opinion we must teach and enforce responsible actions at a very young age (as many have suggested), fundamentally this requires a change to the current destructive influences against the family structure. The vast majority of intelligent, stable, reliable, rational, compassionate individuals came from an intact and loving family. The number of negative influences on the normal biological family are forcing it into extinction. The road back to normalcy will, IMHO, only occur when the unstoppable pendulum of accepted human behaviors reaches the limit of the extreme and swings back the other way. I say this because change happens very slowly, unfortunately by then the masses will most likely find themselves in an inextricable situation once the people, out of fear, allow the government the complete power to control every aspect of their lives thinking that is the solution path. And thus has it always been.......Oh well. Ominous regressions One Truth... many realities |

The old saying is- "Ban guns and only outlaws will have guns" The first response to your post lays out the only solution. Mental health. Take a trip and learn when Mental health help and facilities declined, that snowball started rolling down that hill in the middle 90's with Bill. That which should lead you to Bush jr, Obama and the desired Clinton again. It was their plan! |

If you take away guns, you are more likely to become a victim because criminals will always have guns and crazies will always have a way (vehicles, knifes, etc..) Look at the % of the population that are psychopaths and sociopaths. Considering that, I think we are doing pretty good. Tis just the price of freedom. otherwise we'd be mexico where the cartels run the show |

You think a criminal of any kind is guna think "I could dominate with this gun". NO. Because they would know that every single person has one too, and would be shot as soon as they tried ANYTHING |

Drugs do help many. But, maybe such people SHOULDN'T have guns to begin with! back in the day we had very few mass shootings and all these drugs weren't even invented. Well, MANY things have changed since "back in the day". To assume it's just one of those things (drugs) is irresponsible. Access to firearms and access to the type of firearms being used has also increased. Population has increased also...more targets...more mental illness. People have also become less tolerant of each other and seem to use any sad reason they can think of to end the lives of others. |

They do want to take guns away from everybody and slowly chipping away at the 2a is how they achieve this goal. If they just outright banned guns there would be a civil war. However, 50 years of chipping away, importing gov dependent sheep and pushing anti-gun propaganda will do just the trick. |
