But Americans have the highest per capita gun ownership in the world...it's not even remotely close.
Over half of all guns in the world are owned by people in the US.
A majority of mass killings take place in our country.
Other countries with high per capita gun ownership have a disproportionally small amount of gun deaths compared to the US.
This is all fact. If gun control isn't the answer...and I suspect it really isn't the "answer" more than it is a helpful ingredient to a much larger and more complicated solution.. Then what is? All the NRAers...what is the answer?
There is something very wrong here and while one side may not have the right answer at least they seem to get that there's a problem. The other side seem oblivious.

Their answer is often... more guns.
Craziness.
