The common thread in too many of these shootings is “he had mental health issues”. MENTAL ISSUES
The guns are benign items. The ammo is benign, also.
The gun didn’t start the shooting without a “mentally ill” person squeezing the trigger.
Until this country reopens the mental hospitals & puts these people there, this isn’t going to stop.
Quit blaming the guns. There are millions of gun owners in the USA who have NEVER caused a problem. They should NOT be punished for the behavior of the mentally ill.
Family after family tells the media AFTER an incident that the person involved was ‘mentally ill’. Allowing those mentally ill persons to stay in the population until they cause a serious problem is a gamble that politicians are putting onto citizens, and we don’t deserve that from the politicians. They have the power to open up the mental hospitals & to legislate that disturbed persons are placed there.
Start blaming the politicians & the ACLU for closing down the mental hospitals we already had in operat9ion.
