The problem with America is the preponderance of low-information emotional voters. This article shows that we do not have a "gun violence" problem, we have a social problem. Too bad more people dont bother to examine the causes of "gun violence," and focus on the very real problems facing our country, instead of blaming inanimate objects. Kids need parents who GAF. Parents need jobs. Families need good homes in safe neighborhoods. All that stuff is way hard to fix, especially before the next election cycle.
Politicians blame guns. The news media blame guns because it gets ratings. People dont bother to think for themselves, and we end up forgoing basic concepts like innocent until proven guilty via red flag laws. The gun-grabbers could get everything they want and we'd STILL have "gun violence."
SMH America....
Baltimorgue, which is mentioned in the article, used to have a steel mill that employed 30,000 people who maybe had a high school diploma. Where are the equivalent jobs now? Under Armor, can you here me? With economic conditions such as they are, its no wonder that the largest city in a state whose politicians pride themselves on strict gun control leads the nation in per capita homicides. Gun control doesnt reduce crime.

I recommend that folks spread this info far and wide. Include it in every facebook post. Just get the word out. And buy more ammo!
