Respectfully, you can not be more wrong. The guns make the sick people more effective killers. If your goal is to kill more kids in school, let’s keep making it easy for sick people to get guns. Remove the guns, sick people are forced to use less effective means to project their sickness onto others. The math is so simple it just make me say “ wow”.

Really?
Why are the murder and suicide rates so much higher in the US than European industrialized nations?
Do you want easier questions?
Is a gun in the home more likely to kill a family member than a "bad guy?"

Suddenly the AR expert is advocating for no AR's? Wow. Joking aside, you are typical in that we should just pass laws to protect us from ourselves, that's the solution, right? Instead of addressing the core issue of what is making people so "sick"? Where were these sick people 40-50 years ago when you could by an AR in Sears or K-Mart?

I’m inclined to agree with this 100%. We as a country are struggling with mental health issues, it’s like everyone is on some sort of medication. Pay attention to the commercials for the drugs they advertise and listen to the possible side effects….it’s frightening. This country does nothing to protect us from bad drugs and even less for bad food. Feeling blue?? Throw some more sugar at it, stop by a Dunkin Donuts and get a 2 gallon cappuccino with half a pound of sugar. Have a problem with kids shooting up schools?? I do too. But I’d like to know the gun safety standards in the home, and how often they throw Red Bulls at their kids. As a society, we always knee jerk react to issues rather that addressing the root cause.
Let me know if anyone wants me to jockey for them.

This has to be a joke. Right?

Indonesia’s 'Strava jockey' trend goes viral, but buying exercise achievements comes with potential pitfalls, say experts
Users of the Strava exercise app are making a quick buck selling their running and cycling accomplishments to clients with more money than time. Legal issues could arise if false data is used to gain monetary benefits, a lawyer says.

If I was a pro I'd 100% hire someone to do this for me.
Imagine you're a pro marathon runner and you hire some general person who is on a couch-to-marathon plan to upload their runs to your account. Or if Nino had his public profile just as some regular uploading their normal rides in his town?
Otherwise this makes no sense to me, it's like when people hire other people to run a marathon for them.

People have an odd sense that if they get the award/medal, they actually earned it. The human condition is a weird one.

I can whole-heartedly say yes. I used to live there, still have family there. They have problems like alcoholism, addiction also, just like we do. Big difference between them and us (especially in Eastern Europe) is they don't blame everyone else for their problems. They seem to take a little more personal accountability. This notion of entitlement and unfairness is not as pervasive within the general population.
I just clued my son in on this, and he would like to report that he is available for any runners that would like to log a faster mile or 5k times, or have some local KOM's that they would like to own. He'll charge by the mile, and also by how deep you want to go into the 6,5, or 4min/mile pace.

OK, there is mental illness in Europe. Let's pretend that i didn't know that. Is the combined murder and suicide rate there higher or lower than the US?
Why is suicide on the rise in the US – but falling in most of Europe?
Most European nations have seen suicide rates fall by 20 percent or more. Research is limited, but some studies blame US inequality.

Oh geez, you trot out some lame socialist article from 2018 that tries to blame all the worlds woes on social inequality. Wow! The article is shit. Come on, he asserts that suicide correlates with inequality, shows a bunch of outdated graphs trying to illustrate this, and concludes by saying there’s little to no research or data supporting this, basically negating everything he wrote.OK, there is mental illness in Europe.

How are the numbers? Do you have different sources or #grievancemuch?
Suicides>murders by 2.5/1 per another source I had read.
