Controversial topic Jason. I think it's important as an American to not give up any of our rights. Even if the argument is " for our own protection". I think that the gun violence is a symptom of the problem, not an actual gun problem. One thing that cannot be denied is that we have a greed and corruption problem here in America. On another note , we simply do not do a good enough job taking care of our mentally ill. It takes a mentally ill person to commit mass homicide. If we address the root causes we can solve the symptom related problems
I think that is a great idea. The mentally ill need to receive better treatment for sure. When people have physical injuries they go to the doctor right away. But when people have a mental injury the stigma associated with it keeps a lot of people from seeking proper help. This needs to change.
