hey so! politics still affects you whether you’re paying attention to it or not! still affects you when you’re telling people to stop “going on about it”! you are closer to a civilian being shot in the street for exercising their basic rights than a billionaire laughing at us all
Australia enacted gun control laws in 1996 after 35 people were killed in a shooting. It only took ONE shooting for politicians to protect their citizens and implement gun control. They immediately saw a sharp decline in homicide and suicide rates via guns. This is the first mass shooting Australia has had in decades.
Since 2014 almost SIX THOUSAND people have died from mass shootings in the US. Don’t you dare use this tragedy to try and insinuate gun control does not work. More guns is never the solution.
Empathy is not weak or "woke." And, by the way, "woke" just means you give a damn about other people."
