After the mass shooting at the University of California at Santa Barbara, Mel Robbins, writing for CNN, argued that blame lay not with the National Rifle Association, but with the shooter and the mental health services he did or didnt get.

What will Kimberly do when she wakes up one day and realizes what just one car can do.
Yonkers is bonkers.
It’s nearly axiomatic now, that if some “expert” makes an incredibly stupid political statement on an issue that they have Ivy League credentials.
So I guess when McVeigh mass murdered hundreds in Oklahoma the problem was fertilizer.
Kimmie, Kimmie, Kimmie. ...The gun violence that can’t be
attributed to mental health issues can certainly be laid at the feet of a culture that mocks old time moral values as
those taught in the Christian religion. You need to have
this talk with your liberal friends. It still ain’t the
Guns, hun.
In 1997, estimates were approximately 44 million gun owners in the United States. These owners possessed approximately 192 million firearms, of which an estimated 65 million were handguns. With Obama being the best thing to happen to (increasing) gun sales since he took office, there are millions more guns out there in the public since he took office.
IF GUNS WERE THE PROBLEM, there should be millions and millions of people dead in this country due to the guns out there in the public. This is obviously not the case .... but then again, “logic” means nothing to Leftists.
Oh yeah, I have to watch my guns all the time. I’m fearful that some day they are going to just turn on me on their own. They never did like me....
Just like my shovel, chain saw and drill press.
Washington Post article by an anti-gunner — not worth my time to read.
Fork control is needed to stop obesity.
I went to a psychiatrist once. He just looked at me and didn't talk. I asked him why he wasn't talking and he said he was waiting for me to talk. I said I didn't want to talk. So that was it. I left. What a freak.
From the article:
“But our mental health system is not substantially worse. Most wealthy countries spend between 6 and 8 percent of their gross domestic product on mental health care; the U.S. spends 7 percent GDP. ... A patient with moderate or severe psychiatric illness is just as likely to be seen for care in the United States as in Western Europe, “
The problem is all the crazy things that we dismiss as “normal”. Yes, a patient with “moderate to severe” problems are seen, but those with just a little bit of crazy are never questioned. I saw a woman last week with 4 piercings on her face and “Don’t be judgin’ me” tattooed across the tops of her breasts. She had other tattoos on her arms, but I was reading the breast tattoo and didn’t notice them too much. There’s a lot of pent-up crazy in a person who does that, but we have to accept it as normal.
If that were true, prisons nation-wide should be full of guns.
I wonder if she’s be ready to stand trial for manslaughter if someone stole her car and ran over a pedestrian or caused a fatal accident.
And if we collectively, including the NRA etc. had a lick of sense, we would be pushing the fact that there is a high 90’th percentile correlation between gun problems and liberal beliefs.
There is almost NO incidence of gun problems with right wing/conservative (in the American sense) beliefs. We simply do not believe and act as liberals and liberal supporting people do...which is to say, entitled to violence. It is therefor logical to look closely at liberals and why they are dominant in gun crime statistics.
And everyone needs to know it.
