For those who argue that school shootings are a gun problem, it’s worth considering that in the aftermath of World War I, countless individuals had access to guns without experiencing these widespread, senseless acts of violence for no reason. Therefore, it’s clear that your argument has inherent shortcomings. Moreover, I believe altering gun laws could potentially lead to the establishment of a black market, encouraging individuals to seek illegal firearms, and resulting in an increase in overall violence.

    In order for that to be true, America must be the only country in the world with a mental health problem. Do you think that’s true?

      As I mentioned, after World War One, many people owned guns, but random acts of violence, without any apparent reason, were not common during that time. So it is not a gun problem
