@Immortalkalashnikov a politician can enable things and prevent them. You're acting like he had zero control over stuff he definitely does.

I'm always optimistic in change. Something, eventually breaks through. Sometimes it's like a dam. And sometimes it's very slow, inch by inch.

@zacheryeckard3051 guns are magnifier.

@ajasen there were cops there, and a guard there. Do you think most schools in most countries need armed guards? Anyway it didn't stop it.

Depends what you mean by other hate. The gun owner in this instance seems as Hispanic as most of the population of that town and the victims. The school ones tend to not be at least racially motivated. And often it's one of the majority members of the community.

@gdawg304 It's not socioeconomics themselves. Its the response to them. Safety nets, how livable or crushing a certain level of poverty is, and mobility in the lower levels instead of people focusing on the higher levels of being rich. If the U.S glamorizes guns, so would the rest of the world as they export it. And lots of people here don't have guns or just have one in their house that they almost never see, just in case. The U.S doesn't glamorize guns as much as you might think. What's happened is much worst. It's been tied to identity. It's been tied to conservative politics. And that's tied to religious(a branch of the conservative, evangelicals). And it's been tied to fundamental Human/U.S rights, and the very foundation of the government. To the point of it being a signal of the government becoming dictatorial if anything is done. I'm guessing those societies are more communal or social with how they view each other. The U.S has a strain of people that made the word welfare ugly, and something shameful. They view it as a drain by lazy people. They hate the idea(or have it) that it's immigrants getting benefits. They hate the idea it's black people. I know that kinda thing also exists in the U.K and Canada. Perhaps those places are lucky that they got through important benefits before those kinds of voices got to power, or before nonwhite people became such a target.
