Since the systematic disassembly of our nations mental health system we have seen a steady increase in violence. Along with this comes a systematic blaming of guns for this violence.
The very first murder did not happen on the day (or after) that the gun was invented. The first murder was long before the first gun.
"Gun violence" was a term invented to confuse the people. Guns are not violent. People are. We need to be asking why are people so angry? So violent? What can we as a society do to curb violence? How can we effectively treat those who think that it is okay to perpetrate violence?
If guns are removed, the violent will resort to knives, clubs or their bare hands to commit violence.
Curb violence. For a better America, fix the mental health system.
