Not that I don't agree about assault rifles having no place in civilian hands, but already forgotten about the Nice truck attack? 86 dead, 458 wounded. There are a lot more mass shootings though, but if you really want to kill a lot of people guns aren't the most efficient. |
Well for one, we have a LOT more people than most other places.
Then there is the whole First World problems. Take yourself and many others? What is there in your daily life to be worried about? You work, pay your bills and put food on the table for you and your family. Life is easy. There are no real troubles.
Thus you can look elsewhere to find some enemy if you want. Whether its Russia, North Korea, Blacks, Whites, whatever. You are told someone to hate by someone, whether its a racists friend at work, or the media. And look how polarizing the US has become. Listening to the news a mentally disturbed person could easily think that they are some sort of hero is they kill a bunch of democrats or republicans depending on who they are listening to.
If the world was full of just you and I, there woudl be no need for many laws, such as murder cause we jus twoudl never do it. Only reason I woudl ever murder someone is in some sort of self defense or protection fo my family. And even then I'm just sayign I woudl, in the actual situation who knows if I actually could. But considering the world woudl be full of just you and me, and neither of us would ever be murdering anyone, that situation woudl never come up. But the world is not full of us. There are messed up people in this world. No amount of wishing/praying/ect is going to change that. World Peace is an unacheivable goal.
