This is like reading SkyMall and seeing catalog entries for bulletproof suits and (literal) executive parachutes. I couldn't get through it. None of this should be necessary.

It's painfully apparent that gun control will never be implemented while the threat of swords drives sales of shields.

Gun Control only affects the lawful.

That’s not true. Almost all US mass shootings were done with legally obtained weapons.

I dont see how gun control could be effectively implemented in the united states. There are SO MANY guns already in circulation... what good could you possibly do towards controlling it?

I know this sounds defeatist, but I actually think just having armed guards at schools is the only game-theoretically sound solution
