  • Hot (lukewarm?) take: The first step in fixing the US’s problem with firearm-related violence should not be banning firearms (background checks etc already exist), but should instead be taking measures to prevent people getting into situations where randomly shooting people is seen as a logical choice, such as some form of universal income/healthcare (not gonna argue specifics here because literally anything would be better than our current state of affairs), and a better framework for both understanding and assisting with mental health. Firearm training should definitely also be a requirement.

    Unfortunately, if I did somehow become president, I’d bet “President 0x30507DE was found dead in a barrel with 3 gunshot wounds to the back of the head. His death was ruled a suicide.” would be the headlines within about 2 weeks.
