<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41);" class="">For many years, long before the school shootings at Columbine, I have been arguing against US gun ownership. Realizing the high rate of deaths in the US as a result of shootings,
accidental or otherwise. Just compare to the UK where the police on the beat didn't carry firearms, Japan, where they make it extremely difficult and time consuming to obtain a weapon. Then we have Australia, a culture of immigrants similar to that of the
US, with the same "cowboy mentality" and a re</span><span class="textexposedshow"><span style="font-family: inherit, serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41);" class="">cord of genocide against their indigenous peoples.</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41);" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family: inherit, serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41);" class="">Slavery and the need to control, is the major reason for the proliferation of weapons in the US from our very founding. Our Constitution supporting a "well armed militia," was for that
very purpose, legitimizing killings and lynchings of rebellious slaves. The one amendment we certainly have upheld while destroying most others.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family: inherit, serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41);" class="">Today the problem of shootings in America is much bigger than just gun ownership. We have gone so far down that road, there is no longer any ability to shut the barn doors. It's tied
up with our foreign policy of war, interventions, and the proliferation of weapons, given they are the only thing we manufacture.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family: inherit, serif; color: rgb(29, 33, 41);" class="">Our drug wars, our incarceration of those committing victimless crimes, homelessness and debt, global warming, lack of medical care, and poverty is all part and parcel of the same for
profit "system." People including our children, unless privileged, are considered expendables.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></p>
