guns in the hands of the often irrational(humans)
Like Alex mentions in the video, there is no mention of the hardcore drugs these people were on. I've not heard one reporter ask a question even related to this other than inserting "there needs to be more done for mental health". If you look at average amount of people that die in the US every day from guns it's still higher than any of these so called "mass shootings". 115,000 (whatever number he cites) that die from medical malpractise is a real issue worth working on far before gun control.The mexican drug war and prohibition cannot be used to negate the efficacy in a gun ban;
So you're saying more than 57,000 people would have died if the Mexican people were allowed to defend themselves?
I don't think adding more guns to the drug war would help. If anything, more deaths may occur.The situation is totally different though and unfair the parallel. And speculation is pointless. True, I will agree that there are many other issues that should be addressed. You definitely won't see me out in the streets protesting against guns or doing any activism(but I cannot blame those who have been victims to gun violence, which isn't limited to mass shootings, but gang violence and reckless murders too). I do firmly believe though that there can be constructive conversation--not the one showed in the video--and improvements regarding gun regulation.
Well let's not speculate then: http://www.theblaze.com/stories/the-media-isnt-being-honest-...
