Once again, we need actual gun regulation in this country.

Hard disagree. We have plenty of gun regulation. Too much, in fact.

And Trump just said he wants to disarm all Trans folks, so they’re all easier to victimize because of one person. You want more of that? You know who else was in favor of gun control? That’s right.

What we need more than “actual gun regulation” is “actual universal healthcare including mental healthcare”.

You know already, I’m sure, that most gun deaths in the USA each year are from suicide. (gunviolencearchive.org)

Imagine if you gave a shit about that statistic. Now keep imagining that either or both political parties did too. (Stop laughing!) Because however hard you ban guns, all those people still want to die. Imagine fixing that, instead of worrying about whether or not honest people deserve to be able to defend themselves. (Because as it turns out, murderers don’t care about the law, google Abe Japan for an example of that.)

Gun bans won’t stop attacks like today. They’ll stop normal people from defending themselves, and that’s it.
