So, gun control isn't the real issue. *Identifying and treating the

Not the only case of school shootings; there are several others.
But you miss my point.
I'm not against gun ownership, but there are just too many available
to the wrong people. *The U.S has an epidemic of gun-related violence..
The US has an epidemic of violence, period. *Even if you eliminate all
gun crime from the statistics, the US still ranks up there. *
That aside, my hypothesis is that most gun crime is drug related.
Unfortunately for me, I have been unable to get the numbers to validate
or disprove this. *Ever year, my main sources of information for this,
the Uniform Crime Stastistics and NIH mortality reports, seem to have
less and less detail.
Guns are too easy to obtain, and there are too many of them. *Look at
the school shootings, and we have had several.
As the conservatives gain influence and power, I would expect the
stats to fade into obscurity, and the lies we hear from them are
simply unbelievable.
One day there will be a reckoning.- Hide quoted text -
