RE: Angsty Teens Lashed Out at Guns

General access to weapon bear consequences. More destructive the weapon the more casualties involved and let's be honest, maniacs, psychopaths and simply people with chronic depression walk the earth and in acts of desperation will use all the available resources to cause harm.

Sort:  

It's easier to rent a moving truck to drive through a march than to sneak a gun close enough to use it.

Rent a moving truck? Well, you need a license, credit card, planning. But yes, this happens too, more through terrorist attacks than frustrated teenagers but it happens. I think there's something in the guns which empowers weak people, gives them a sense of strength which they are lacking in the real life. It's usually kind of "you hurt me so now I hurt you". You don't achieve that with a truck, unless your goal is not to damage specific group of people, just take as many as you can (which terrorists do).

No, people use guns because they are constantly thrown in their faces as evil. Like kids smoking, most do it because they are told it is bad. Don't be coy on what is really happening with social media and justice.
