There’s private selling and gun shows to consider, making things that more difficult.

And you’re right, mental health issues have always existed, but there’s just more of them out there by virtue of a larger population & add social media tends to screwing with peoples minds (as you can witness here, lol).

Greed? Capitalism? Seriously?!? You do know where you live, right?

I understand your pain though, not debating you at all - today is another banner day in the news.

That's insane - it's a wonder we don't have more mass shootings in this country. Given the population, 50 people mowed down by an AR doesn't seem like such a big deal. It's the possibility of it happening again that makes most people weary. Even me, I'm not worried about Jamal shooting me. I don't go to the hood or deal with shady people. I'm more worried about some hillbilly who hates Obama coming and shooting up a restaurant or event I'm attending, even though statistically speaking, I'm more likely to get shot by Jamal.

And yeah, fuck social media. I stopped using Facebook like a decade ago and never got on any other platform. I can understand why people would want to shoot others after being on social media lol.
