And yet any serious attempt at proper gun control is unanimously rejected by both sides. America is so fucked.

I find myself questioning whether it’s worthwhile even engaging in gun control threads any more. If the horrors of Sandy Hook and Uvalde didn’t change peoples minds nothing anyone can say is going to change opinions.

We all know the script - the pro gun people will turn up in the thread with tedious inevitability with all the usual talking points and strawmen to knock down, upvoting each other and downvoting anyone who disagrees.

And nothing changes. And then tomorrow or next week there’s another dead or injured kid or another mass shooting and the ‘debate’ begins anew …

Both sides?

No. The GOP rejects gun control and the Supreme Court does logic pretzels to support them.
