It's not as simple as just making them illegal. You truly don't understand how it works...
Yeah I've been trying to say that this whole time, no one really understands the US. There are so many other factors that play into it besides guns.
I mentioned that in my post.
The US gun culture is
fucked up. A lot of Americans hold this belief they
need guns.
Which is insane.
But I think making them illegal will go a way to changing the gun culture.
No, what needs to be done is the cleaning up of the lowest parts of the country. That includes many things
-Drastically increasing the education in suburban schools and reduce the drop out rate
-Legalize drugs so that the government can hand them out safely and people won't be getting into the drug business. This will also decrease a lot of violence
-We need to bring all the jobs shipped oversees back to help fix the unemployment
-The media needs to stop reporting on crime 24/7 and putting fear into everyone for ratings.
If the government at least started with these things and actually tried to help the poor instead of just saying fuck them, let's wait for them to mess up and then throw them in prison then there would be a lot less crime and people would feel safe without the need for a gun, which would in turn cause Americans to stop feeling the need to own a gun. That's how we need to get rid of guns.
