America is so fucked. Both parties dont give af about the gun problem. Just one side cares a bit less than the other
The “gun problem” is really an issue with shit like social services and safety nets, not guns per se.
If you talk to a criminal defense attorney and ask what the gov’t could do that would see the biggest drop in gun crime, most of them will answer without hesitation: end the war on drugs. If you decriminalize and legalize drugs, you end fights over money and territory in a single fell swoop, because you don’t see convenience stores shooting each other up, do you?
Context is important, since the person saying this has a security detail and holds office where the threat of violence against them is real.
I mean, I don’t think we need to worry about people getting shot during an unannounced in home break in.
We need to worry about people being shot randomly in the street for no reason, or guns being in the hands of people who are mentally deranged. Those are very different things imo.
