lol do you have any idea how astronomically expensive it is to get a gun on the black market in a country with strict gun regulations? right now a homeless guy could pan handle for a couple
weeks and get $400 and go get a hand gun. pretty sure it was australia where it would take several thousands of dollars to get a gun. your average street thug/criminal probably won’t be getting one.
i do agree that tighter gun laws won’t be the end all be all though. we have a society that essentially glorifies violence with true crime shows and media outlets that blast perpetrators pictures all over at a much higher rate than the victims. we let fucks like james holmes, jeffery dalmher, ted bundy, timothy mcveigh, etc. go down in infamy as a villainized superheros in a sense. as long as we continue that pattern i would speculate that we continue to see copy cats and new variations of violence continue.
