Re: Corona Virus: is it the beginning of the end?
I feel that attitude is entitled and somewhat defeatist. Entitled because you have the freedom to ignore that America has some freakishly high rates of per-capita gun violence. Defeatist because the implication is that changing gun laws won't actually change rates of gun violence. But if that's true, why do so many countries with better gun control have much better per-capita gun-violence numbers?
No, obviously, you aren't going to be able to get rid of 100% of all guns, ever, across America. That's not realistic. But if you made it much more difficult to carry a gun, if you made the possession of certain types of guns straight-up illegal (seriously, who needs an assault rifle for home defense?), if you actually increased the efficacy of background checks, if there was just better legislation, registration and oversight across the board, then maybe you'd see fewer guns falling easily into the hands of folks who would misuse them.
