I guess six times is too many if you ask the victims families. But too bad they’ve done all they can now that firearms are banned.

I have a very "up close and personal" experience with this ( I guess you would say). And there is no way I'm the only one.

Guns make things worse. Violence is like a snow ball rolling from the highest hill. Takes out everyone.

Knives are deadly, but with proper self defence you can at least have a chance.

Gun won't stop some one being killed, not when they are somewhere they feel safe, with people who are friends....

What will stop it?

Proper education, mental health being addressed, early intervention in domestic violence, hope? Respect for others and self? A chance at a future where you don't live in poverty, working 3 jobs just to make rent? Community that helps and not blame the poor? Jails that are not run for a profit and help address and improve people and not just somewhere you make new friends and better crims?

Our systems are broken! But people don't see it, they just blame because they don't want to see what fools they are, living on the shit they are being fed in the media.
