There is a much bigger picture or conspiracy to this. If you do the research this isn't about kids dying in schools, that's the tactic being used to make the citizens disarm themselves. I am British, we have no guns here by law, yet guns are still around...
Over the last decade the US government, Homeland security in particular ordered millions and millions of rounds of hollow tipped ammunition. Its sole purpose is to kill. Yet homeland security only deals with threats on its own land, so they assume that they are going to lose control of the failing, enslaving system that citizens are waking up too and hence will use shoot to kill ammo against any that revolt! They are now trying to make the citizens voluntarily disarm themselves through what they think is a good thing, leaving just the government and criminals who won't hand them in willingly...
Shitty place to be in the world right now in my opinion.
guns might still be around - but how many? When there's about 50 times as many guns per capita (just a guess), then that also means that guns are 50 times more likely to be used.
Why it is so bad for citizens to disarm themselves? Why do citizens need to be armed? armed citizens are likely to use those arms on each other, and that is what we see.
