I’m so sick of seeing the Nazi nutcase violence problem framed as a way to take away the guns I have because of the Nazi nutcase violence problem.
Can we fucking deal with the actual issue with mass shooters? It’s not guns. It’s not mental health. It’s fucking Nazis.
It’s a multifaceted issue, absolutely, and in that you’re partially correct. Guns, though, provide the means to cause as many and as high numbered mass shootings.
So, let’s take a multifaceted approach and: implement common sense gun control measures to make it more challenging for civilians (who are very specifically not a ‘well organized militia’) to purchase weapons of this kind; let’s implement better social medicine programs that include mental health services; and let’s also address class warfare, racism, sexism, and attacks on the LGBTQ, minority, and immigrant communities and the degradation of the separation of church and state (which is extremely in favor of the Christian religion instead of recognizing that our population is multi-religion and/or degrees of agnostic or atheist).
The system as it is is built to continue to either break us or cause strife at our level… so that they can continue to keep run our rights into the ground to the benefit of their wallets.
Don’t ignore the means by which a thing happens merely to address the causes, especially in bad faith so as to redirect the message in favor of protecting your outdated and misinterpreted ‘Right to Bear [sic] Arms’ over other’s Right to fucking live without being shot by a nutjob.
