[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This country will always have stupid young men who resort to violence with one another, often over silly disputes. And as long as we have so many guns, there will be senseless shootings. For sure there may be racist underpinnings, whether it’s indifference to black-on-black crime or whites with a pathological need for guns to defend their property against the blacks and browns they imagine will one day try to take it all away. But the bottom line is that more gun control will be the only way to make this country a decent one. Many of us would gladly live somewhere else if only we could. [/quote] There are many communities across this country that don't have "stupid young men" (your words) shooting people and committing crimes. Many families of all races, ethnic groups, and income levels work hard to instill solid values and raise kids who don't commit crimes. My husband and I don't have a gun but don't think it's just a gun problem. It's largely due to parents who give birth but don't parent their children who too often commit violent crimes.[/quote]
