    Ah, I see we’re using conservative tactics in making an “other” group demonize and alienate.

    I always say that this is more cultural than anything else.

    In the sense that culture is a complete lack of social safety nets, affordable and accessible healthcare and community support resources, broken ERPO laws, etc., sure.

    You could argue rampant media oversensationalism of such violence glorifies it and further incentivizes it to those seeking to commit such a gruesome suicide, but that’s less culture and more partisan wedge-driving and profiteering off ad revenue.

    I’m just criticising how they handle and view guns.

    How do you believe we view firearms? I’m interested in hearing how we can do whatever the heck [we] want.

    Just relax with the guns and emulate their Swiss brethrens who are self-disciplined about handling guns. Rights come with responsibilities.

    It’s fortunate, then, that the vast majority of firearm owners are responsible.
