So, why are guns necessary?

[a completely inoffensive name]

At this point gun violence is an entirely media manufactured problem. Was it serious in the early 90s? Probably. But all interactions I have had with gun owners had indicated to me that the gun culture is now exceedingly emphasizing safety and responsibility, if only to make sure the legislators don't come down upon them.

I mean, when falls account for more 2x more deaths than deliberate firearm homicides, you need to step back and ask what we could be focusing on instead.

It's a wedge issue, politicians know that, media knows that. You are all falling for it.

The reason these threads are always started by non-Americans is because they do not understand how American media operates. They hear from their media which takes the narrative from what American media manufactures.

I have never visited Germany. But I am sure if I bought a major news station and mandated that they report on Neo-Nazis once a week, I could convince all of Germany that the 4th Reich is rising.
