Again, with the "liberals." Aren't you responding to a comment from a self-professed liberal who wrote I don't think guns are the actual problem? I don't think bandaid ideas that just make us believe we are doing something productive when we aren't, or worse, we are creating more problems, is the answer either. Unfortunately for all of us, both sides of the political spectrum are much too eager to legislate and criminal far too many behaviors and activities, whether it is too control us or to save us from ourselves, so blaming only liberals or conservatives is just erroneous thinking. Creating more compassionate, concerned for our neighbors, less judgmental, less punitive, supportive communities and country where it isn't every person for ourselves who doesn't really give a rat's patootie what happens to other Americans as long as we are okay would go a long way toward the prevention of all kinds of violence, including gun violence. It would be far more effective than gun control.
