He actually gets a lot right with this:
Mental health emphasis.
Gratuitous, desensitizing violence in the media.
Political environment that encourages winning by shouting down the other side.
I’d suggest addressing all three of those area first, and seeing how they work, before implementing even more gun control laws.
***Gratuitous, desensitizing violence in the media.***
Reminds me of 1968 after Bobby Kennedy was murdered. The MSM blamed comic books, pulp pocket books, TV violence, toy guns, real guns, army surplus guns, and movies.
SO, comic books toned it down.
Pulp pocket books toned down their lurid covers.
TV shows like GUNSMOKE were downgraded to kiddie shows.
Movies on TV were chopped up to remove “violence”.
The 1968 Gun Control Act was passed banning the import of small foreign guns and 5 shot bolt action army surplus rifles.
Toy guns disappeared from the stores.
But the Movie industry said they would police themselves with a joke of a rating system.
“Hot D*MN! The Hays code is dead! Film ‘em if you got em boys!” Movies were re-shot to add more sex and violence and get the coveted R rating!
Now with cable, TV is worse than ever.
