The evidence is in: We can't handle the number of guns we have in this country. We can't stop people from mass murdering. We can't "harden" every public space in the country. No amount of training will enable police to routinely stop gunmen before they kill multiple people.
We have tested this extensively and have the data to prove it. It is probably not humanly possible to have an avid, angry, often anti-social, gun culture combined with massive numbers of nearly unregulated guns and not have mass killings.
Almost every other country in the world has decided that not-regulating guns is too dangerous, too costly in innocent lives lost. Here, people and politicians twist themselves in knots giving reasons why they prioritize gun "freedom" over human lives.
There is no logical argument to excuse this inhumanity.
One wonders why they don't care. Some moral facility seems to be diminished or missing. It is probably not a coincidence that most of the politicians who oppose gun control claim to be Christian. They have politicized the conservative church to such an extent that they think God cares more about Republicans winning elections than preventing the repeated murder of children.
They are driving people away from organized religion so effectively the devil himself would be impressed.
