Any one care to share there thoughts about recent events are you happy more of our kids have been killed because you will not accept limiting access to guns and I do not mean banning just some proper checks on the persons suitability to own one.
Maybe this thread is better left to disappear to the depths of the forum where it belongs... I mourn for the families and the losses that they have to live with for the rest of their lives. It is just awful what they are going through.
But I just want to say that the mental health issues in this country (and the world) need to be addressed. At the end of the day, evil is evil, whether it is a truck attack in Nice, or a shooting in Uvalde.
In the US we have a mental health issue being masked as a gun issue, I have guns and have never been tempted to harm anyone. Also, there are very few laws that aren't already in place that would prevent a tragedy like this. I am open to suggestions on laws that would prevent this and also I am open to tweaks in the system as long as they are logical and data driven.
The idea of taking all the guns away is a hot and fast answer, but at the end of the day it just isn't going to happen. So it is time to focus on the real issues, like mental health.
Also, we are all just humans on this forum and none of us have all the answers or all the same opinions.. lets be kind to one another.
I wonder how much mental health issues stem from the pharmaceutical companies. I know drugs can do a lot of good, but I wonder what drugs do to development during pregnancy and how vaccines affect infants and children, etc. Then add on broken families and absent parents. It is a vicious cycle with so many variables, we are in utter chaos mode right now. The USA spends (and probably pushes) more pharmaceuticals than any other country. Let's start there.
