[QUOTE="soberups, post: 998746, member: 14668"] The reality is that the availability of mental health care in this country is sadly lacking. I dont know what the answer is. I dont think there [I]is[/I] any foolproof method of keeping guns out of the hands of those who shouldnt have them....[I]particularly[/I] when that person is as methodical and determined as the Aurora shooter, or the nut job in Norway who was able to massacre over 70 people with one in spite of Norwegian gun laws that are [I]far[/I] stricter than those in the USA. My guess is that something like 99.9% of all gun violence victims were [I]unarmed[/I] when they got shot. So if you want to adopt a [I]statistical[/I] methodology for trying to reduce gun deaths, you need to include [I]all [/I]relevant statistics and not just the ones that support conclusions that coincide with your own personal predjudices.
