On one hand, I completely understand Americans for wanting to own guns for their own protection, be it from unchecked government or crazy individuals. On the other hand, it certainly provides easier access for these nuts. Would a gun ban reduce these mass shootings....? If I had to bet on it...I would say probably NO.
I don't think the gun ban has anything to do with mass shootings. I think far less people die in mass shootings, than if other methods are used, if they were just about killing as many people as they can.
Mass shootings I believe is about notoriety, their minutes of fame, a legacy for a life of perceived rejection, a life perceived to be lacking in attention, lacking in value, and lacking in love.
Then there are on shootings that are about hate, revenge, money, women, madness, or an agenda.
Removing guns from the average citizen will not change any of that, because the acts are not about the guns. It is about the hurt. They don't need guns to make us hurt.
For every one person that read this post. About 7.99 billion have not.
Yet I still post.
