1 in 5 U.S. adults say they’ve had a family member killed by a gun.
1 in 6 have witnessed a shooting.
1 in 5 have been personally threatened with a gun.

It’s the guns. The guns are the problem.

kkarhan,

@WorkingFamilies no!

The problem is with doing amd rewarding with !

Otherwise we'd see similar levels of (adjusted per capita) in places with similar laws and/or similar amounts of (illegal) weapons, like , , , , and .

If you want change in gun laws and want gun safety in the U.S. you are going to have to vote for Democratic Party politicians.

It is that simple.

kkarhan,

@dontreportme @popcornreel The reason why these acts of #StochasticTerrorism occur is because they are in fact "#AdvancedSuicides" and they are exclusively comitted against marginalized people.

And since cops have no legal duty to "protect and serve" the community but instead get "qualified immunity" for brutalizing citizens, the situation is how it is...

#Florida is 26th state to allow permitless carry despite risks to public safety, growing opposition

>No permit, safety training, or background check: That's what's needed to carry a loaded #gun in over half the country. Nothing! #Florida is the 26th state to let adults carry #handguns without a permit or license. Meanwhile, states that allow permitless carry, which is also called "constitutional carry," continually see increased violence and death.

kkarhan,

@raymondpert As much as I'm not a fan of any restrictions, I do think that demanding people to have at least shown sufficient proficiency and gun etiquette, knowledge of safety rules and not being known for domestic violence or convicted of violent crimes is reasonable to demand.

Still the overlooked Propblem nationwide is the #ViolenceCulture that spreads #PropagandaOfTheDeed and supports #StochasticTerrorism in the form of #AdvancedSuicides.

The U.S. sets a grim milestone with a new record for the deadliest six months of mass killings.

The AP reports: "Six months. 181 days. 28 mass killings. 140 victims. One country."

kkarhan,

@NewsDesk The problem is that the #USA embrace said #StochasticTerrorism by rewarding it with #PropagandaOfTheDeed.

That's why these "#AdvancedSuicides" are so rampant: The perpertrators get rewarded with #airtime on millions of screens!!!

That's the problem: What people do to other people and showcase.

not the non-sentient tools used to do so!

Peeps: it's time to begin to contemplate the post-Information Age.

We had a good run: a billion seconds in which information wanted to be free - and, largely was.

That's over now. Not because of paywalls - despite that we'd all suspected this would eventually be the case.

It's because of a complex feedback loop between information and late capitalism.

When you monetise something, you create an ecosystem of perverse incentives which eventually gain the upper hand.

And so here we are.

kkarhan,

@mpesce EXACTLY!

This is why #MassShootings in the #USA are rampant, because #Mainsteam #MassMedia are depend on #ratings for #advertising and rewarding #StochasticTerrorism in the form of "#AdvancedSuicides" will keep people tuned in on said linear broadcasting "news" channels...

That's why this is basically exclusive to the #US despite it neither having the most [il-]legal weapons per capita in circulation nor having the most relaxed laws by a long shot.
