>> Yes, and once again we have the GOP and the wingers on the USSC to thank for this egregious mess.

No, we have the Founders to thank for the 2nd Amendment.

Stop blaming the originators of the Constitution for your BS. BTW back when the Founders existed, the Tories, your ancestors, opposed them. So don't act like you all were buddy buddy with the Founders.

As for the current mess we are in, we can blame the USSC, populated by wingers. They were the first USSC court to interpret the 2nd amendment as a permission to arm everyone in this country. But it didn't start with them. It started with Reagan who determined in his enduring folly that spending tax money on mental institutions was a waste of money and that the mentally disturbed were better off on the streets. In fact spending tax money on anything other than making war was his mantra.........that and writing silly love letters to his wife.

But we have the welfare state to thank for the vast majority of the gun killings in this country.

Every first world country has welfare. None have the kind of gun violence prevalent in this country. Back in the 90s, the UK and AU had a problem..........nothing to magnitude of the one we have here.........but they cleaned up the problem by restricting gun ownership.


Blaming the gun is one of the dumbest things liberals do.

I don't blame the gun............I blame the right in this country.
