The only reason why America has overwhelming gun violence (I'll give them that) is because America is more free for personal decision making than a lot of these countries. That allows people to make more choices and some of those choices are dumb or homicidal.
Americans overwhelmingly dont trust their goverment so we dont want to legislate ourselves into a corner so the 2nd amendment is the ultimate fail safe. Also a lot of these shootings are in gang infested regions which so happen to be in areas where there are tight controls on guns.
I'm still pro gun after those two shootings
