I'm living with a disabled father from a car accident. Decades to go caring for a completely disabled person. Many thousands of people every year are in pain from car accidents. Or medical malpractice which takes like a quarter million lives yearly.
No need to go on about extremely rare insane people that are almost all medicated. They would drive a truck through a crowd if not gun them down.
The numbers don't make sense, 200 vs millions impacted by other real problems
School shootings in the USA absolutely eclipse every other first world nation combined. Also, 200 deaths equates to potentially hundreds of thousands of traumatised kids. With such fear permeating it’s not surprising that the system produces mentally unstable people that can’t access treatment.
Moreover, actually in USA deaths on roads went up
Moreover, there is large overlap between those who see mass shooting as issue and those who want walkable streets and the kind of zoning that promotes less driving.
The fact is, kids are having active shooter drills in schools.
200 kids have died last month in Chicago.
Come on.
And, of course, the number of kids shot in Chicago last month doesn't even resemble 200.
