re: #21 Political Atheist

What is your evidence that people are going to change?

Because we are very different from most other first world countries in this regard, and many of our sub-populations are very different, too. Gun-culture isn’t spread evenly throughout US society.

These habits are deep. And why just guns? Risks about airplanes, cars, pools, guns, boats all are now very poorly assessed by individuals.

What do you mean ‘why just guns’? Are you under the impression I don’t want any regulations of cars and pools or something, or considerations of safety? Or that someone buying a car shouldn’t consider that public transport is much safer?

What is it about a gun that will upend human risk psychology for the better? This after precise numbers that are deeply tested for accuracy and efficacy are set right?

You’re losing me again.
