It is an indisputable fact...
...that gun violence does not happen in societies where guns are not ubiquitous. The solution to gun violence is less gun ownership and access. The NRA argument that the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun reflects a massive ignorance of this fact. If we want to win this argument, we have to be very clear, there is no sincere debate on the fact that enacting strict gun control will save lives. Do not accept any right-wing obfuscation on this reality, for it is grounded in falsehood.
