In the UK after banning guns, they know have a knife problem. Proving once again that its a mental health problem not a tool problem. Guns, knifes and thing that is used as a weapon is just a tool. Its the person who uses the tool for evil that is to blame.
Here in the U.S. we are getting mass shootings. Again its not the tool, it’s the person behind it.
In other parts of the world they have to deal with suicide bombers. Again its the mental illness and in most of these cases its brainwashing.
So instead of rushing to pass new gun laws, what we need to do put a lot of money into mental health help programs. Along with removing the stigma that comes with seeking help for mental health problems. People should not be punished for seeking help.
Last thing I will say is gun owners have a responsibility to keep their guns away from children and those who have known mental issues that lean to dark thoughts. If a child commits a crime with your gun, YOU the gun owner should be charged with that crime.
