Thank you for your unique perspective on the subject. Yes, I vaguely remember hearing statistics about gun violence declining in recent decades. We must be doing something right in that case. What do you think accounts for the decline?
I agree about the media determining the things we focus on. They do a great job of stoking the fires of panic about whatever topic they've decided is important that day. I wonder what the solution to that is. Perhaps decentralized media would help. It sure doesn't help that most of the major media outlets are owned by just a couple people.
And thank you for the kind compliments!
