The problem is not in Washington. It's right in the house. . In the nightstand. In the drawer you hope your kids never open. The most common thing done with a gun is NOT self defense. It is suicide. Roughly 75 males a day EVERY DAY they put a gun to their own head and pull the ..... T R I G G E R ... Every day. Fathers. Brothers. Uncles This is NOT ideology . This is anatomy and physics meeting easy over availability. And you wonder why the prisons are so full. Because there's nobody there raising little Johnny. But you know YOU are busy you already have your spoon fed outrage focused on what ? plastic grocery bags ? and whether or not people are smoking in designated areas. Suicide attempts with other methods Pills, cuts, exhaust . etc. ALMOST ALL fail. Gun attempts do Not . A gun turns a temporary spiral at 2:30am into a permanent outcome for everyone. Not just the person who pulled the trigger. Everyone. Kids , neighbors, etcetera. THEY pretend guns are tools. They are not . Tools fix things. They build. They create. Guns do none of that. They cannot fix a roof. They cannot start a car . They cannot get you to work. Triggers produce one result only. Corpses. ( Maybe NRA paychecks or lobbyists, but those have never done anything good for us either.) We pretend guns prevent harm. They do not. They escalate it. They make fear louder. They make rage final. They make mistakes irreversible. Reality is shaking ****** hands, panic, missed shots, wrong place targets, kids finding guns in drawers next to socks. So preventable . No one should have the right to turn an impulsive moment into permanent death. Not you. Not me. Not anyone. Rights are about living together. Guns END ANY HOPE FOR conversation. They don't fix anything. You can't overthrow a king or a dictator with one. You can't stop a cruise missile, a tank or a jet. It doesn't matter what guerrilla tactics that you use. The ****** weapon itself won't do the job. It's not capable. People who horde guns are not heroes waiting for villains. Look at the statistics. Nobody protects their home from somebody breaking into it daily, yet people shoot college students and kids. Daily and shoot themselves every day, whereas someone who stops a robbery or an assault is literally once every five or six years. If that. Now compare that to daily death. The shooters are too often disturbed mislead people people in crisis. People in Maga Trump inspired bunker building rage. People scared out of their minds with no real answers or beliefs that aren't lies . The 2nd amendment BAH ! A ****** weapon is useless. It's a little pop gun compared to the military. It's nothing compared to a tank to a jet to a missile, no matter how effective you want to argue for guerrilla tactics. And hit and run, blah blah blah . You won't change anything like that. You won't overthrow regimes or take down kings or dictators. Not in this modern time, not in this age. It's a John Wick meets Rambo revenge. fantasy. Stop pretending this is complicated.
