[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would certainly love to see gun control measures passed but I worry the most about traffic safety. We are a car-obsessed country.  [/quote]

That's a mistake, as gun deaths have now passed traffic deaths as the biggest cause of death for kids. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/12/14/magazine/gun-violence-children-data-statistics.html[/quote]

If you look at the data, the biggest increase is in gun homicides among Black teens.  Tripled since 2013.  [/quote]

Yes, and let's look at Chicago a city which has the most draconian gun control laws, yet experiences the highest incidence of gun violence, especially in the black community.  So yes, gun control is a great topic to spout off about but does it really work?  Are we then going to take away all the knives and sharp objects?  If an evil person, and that's who the nashville shooter women was, wants to cause harm and use physical violence they will find a way.  I think it's much better to properly secure our buildings and stop declaring these places as gun free zones which only encourages people like the nashville shooter.  She knew it was low on security and she could get in there easily.  JFC, let's be smart and protect our children with the technology and knowledge and man power we have, it's easier then you might think.  And if society would stop demonizing every single cop as a horrible person our children could find some comfort in their presence.  We need to be smarter and pro active, this constant cry about taking legal guns away from legal gun owners is never going to work.  [/quote]
