RE: Why we own multiple firearms and their uses...

in #life7 years ago

All well accounted for I guess. Always seems odd for me but then we don't have a gun culture in the UK. The are completely illegal for most people, although if you want on you can get one!

Its always a question I ponder gun control. If everyone had a gun would it be safer, I mean look at Switzerland. Considering a lot of people have guns in the US there are not as many shootings as you would be lead to expect but the media. In comparison (the only I have) to knifes in the UK there are a lot of stabbings. But also even though guns are illegal there are shootings thankfully not mass shootings but all the same people are shot in the streets.

So I'm on the fence I think, its so difficult when the programming is all you know! 💯🐒

Sort:  

mass shooting didnt happen in america until the decline of the american family. meaning around the 80's or a little earlier families stopped doing things together. parents started relying on game consoles and tv to raise their kids. it became very hard to discipline your own children in the 90's without fear of CPS grabbing them (child protective services). and to top it off making things worse our brilliant gov created the "leave no child behind" program for education meaning you got passed to the next grade even if you failed the one you were in. then they recently in 2000 something created the "common core" program that destroyed the educational system. now the result is we have a ton of young adults and teen children that are uneducated and undirected and lack the necessary family upbringing that kept them sane and proper. we only have ourselves to blame for allowing it to happen and downward spiral. but one thing we must always remember guns dont kill people do. and today everyone seems to focus on the gun not the people. we take away the guns by law and we only serve to take guns out of law abiding citizens. criminals are criminals and that means they dont follow the laws and therefore will always have a gun if they so choose to. then there is big pharma over medicating everyone...

Well said! The education system globally has gone pete tong as we say here! Tits up. Brainwash rubbish.
I didn't know about the leave not child behind or common core. What can you say? We need to change the paradigm that 100th monkey is close! 💯🐒

:) thanks...
