Well if you took a page out of France’s playbook it wouldn’t necessarily get to this point. At the slightest suggestion that they might have to work a bit extra or pay a bit more, they’re out burning cars and building guillotines. As it should be.
Edit: also educating people on safe firearms use as a condition of ownership of a firearm actually goes a long way to reducing the deaths. Also guns aren’t the only way of getting rid of people. Just ask the IRA.
I’d be more inclined to take responsibility if we had a more representative electoral system like STAR voting. Then more then 2 political parties would be viable, with no spoiler effect.
But we don’t see the democratic party (self described democracy lovers) passing this much needed reform in states they control.
Perhaps the democrats enjoy yelling and screaming at people online and IRL that a vote not for (insert pro genocide status quo candidate) is a vote for Trump. They love it so much they prefer trump winning over having to compete for our votes.
Donald Trump is the new US President, and you’re responsible.
Victim blaming. Nobody asked to be born under this evil slavemaster pact.
I’m sure if you took a second to think about possible solutions to this problem you’d find a way of making the necessary amendments to your country.
The 2A sure rings different when it maters

None of that would have happened with a well-educated populace that could employ bullshit detection and critical thinking.
Hell, I doubt even conservatism in any capacity could survive as a going concern in such a society.
