As a Brit, I see how we implemented major gun control after a mass shooting in 1996 - twenty two years ago - and NEVER HAD ANOTHER ONE. But gun control doesn't work... "Mass shootings" are statistically negligible; they're just sensational. It's like how we have a huge thing about children dying from being left in hot cars: the number of incidents was something like ~40 per year. People get emotional because "won't somebody please think of the children?!" But it's really a non-issue due to its infrequency. Hit the nail on the head. It's seriously a drop in the bucket. The sensationalization only exists for political fear-mongering. <cite>RoboLaserGandhi posted [p:904236218] in Keep seein...
