“America doesn’t have a gun problem. It has several of them.”
The debate over gun regulation in the US seems intractable, but there is one fact that both sides can agree on: Mass shootings are just the tip of a very complicated gun problem in America. This video runs though several charts that tries to breakdown and explain the state of gun violence in America.
Unfortunately elected officials and the nation’s largest gun lobby, the National Rifle Association (NRA), believe the only way to mitigate gun violence in the US is to better arm everyone – despite the fact that gun violence appears to be directly related to the number of guns available. So where does that leave us?

This video is so difficult – but we need difficult.
We also need to acknowledge that the NRA position is bullshit. Plain and simple.
All this from the fag who in ’88 volunteered and voted for Governor Dukakis – and still sees that gent at Dunkin’ by St Mary Street in Brookline.
