If someone really wants to get a gun it’s not that hard to have someone give you one, find one on the black market, ghost guns. Like yall really think gun control is going to help. Sure it might, but if someone wants to do that they’re going to find a way to do it. Regardless of gun control laws

And the first could’ve been prevented if, several months ago, when the perpetrator called 911 begging for help bc he believed there were objects in his body that were controlling him, he had received mental health care, instead of being charged for “miss-using 911.”

We need to stop using mental health as an excuse. 14 chances is too many he needs to be away from the general public

Gun control only works for law abiding citizens. If they’re killing people I don’t think they’re very law abiding do you?

if they want to do something but can’t get a gun, that solves the problem 99% of the time. Canada fixed their gun control laws and they’ve only had 11 mass shootings EVER. we’ve had 233 THIS YEAR. but yeah sure gun control doesnt work dumbass

the people who do this aren’t previously criminals, they’re mentally ill individuals who, in any sane country with gun control, would be stopped from obtaining a firearm.

i don’t think you understand how easy it is to get a gun. you don’t even need to go in a store….

most people do. vast majority of mass shootings are done with a legally obtained firearm. AKA they went in the store

so are these 16 yr olds that are shooting up schools getting it legally? i don’t think so. so a ban would stop them from getting it in a store but not other places. it wouldn’t work.

they usually get it from their parents who obtained it legally 🤷‍♂️ gun control includes gun safety and gun education about how to properly secure your firearm away from your children and often includes giving away free gun locks

but they still decided to get in the car and drive it 🤨. just like these ppl deciding to bring a gun to school or a gun to a debate.

that would stop maybe 45% of the shootings for a while. and then when these ppl wanna go crazy they’re just going to get it illegally

It’s not an “excuse” to say that if he had gotten real help a few months ago when he called repeatedly called 911 because he believed there were objects in his body controlling him instead of being charged with “misusing 911” this likely never would have happened. Sorry but mental illness can be messy. Not all behavior can be neatly fit into “chose to do good” or “chose to do bad.”
