With all due respect, this is nonsense. It takes only the slightest effort do determine that the per capita firearm homicide rate is far higher in the US than Canada. Around 7 times higher or more. Shootings may not be completely preventable but the rate in the US is much greater than in European countries and Canada. That requires reflection and thought as to how to possibly improve the situation, not simple acceptance as the price that has to be paid. It is demonstrated in other countries that you can have freedom , less death and better gun regulation. They are not mutually exclusive concepts.
