re: NOT SEC related (10 Killed in Community College Shooting)

Guns arent the problem, otherwise we would expect gun violence to go up as ownership and access to guns goes up. The fact is that the population which owns over 80% of legally acquired guns in this country (lower-middle to upper class white Americans) commits less than 10% of the gun related offenses proves that claim false.

Meanwhile, 4 out of every 5 gun related felonies in this country are committed by Hispanic and AA males between the ages of 15-35 despite this population owning less than 10% of the legally acquired firearms in this country. If you take out the gun related offenses committed by this group, we drop from #1 to #18 in the world in gun violence.

As we can clearly see, the problem isnt guns. The problem is certain groups of people in this country acquiring guns, usually illegally or through questionable secondary markets, and using them for nefarious purposes due to reasons that are up for debate.
