Lots of things are rare, and if preventable or reducible, we legislate them. In fact, WE DID with numerous gun laws over the years. Gun laws have become more lax since the 1990s.

Additionally, I think there is some sickness in gun culture. I've seen Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton targets on sale at gun shows. I've seen lost of racism, rebel flags and violent rightwing bullshit as well. This is all wrapped up in the marketing of guns to protect you from harm. (Another statistically rare occurrence.)

Have you EVER seen a left-wing meme at a gun show?
