Except for all the people trying to deflect blame from firearms by blaming mental illness. Without any will to actually address mental illness, of course.
Other countries have easy access too, so no, that is not simply it. Look at Switzerland for example, where you can take your military service weapon home.
Military are trained to use it. Part of the issue in the United States is the lack of quality training for civilians and improper background checks. We should be checking for mental health disorders and other red flags like domestic violence and criminal activity.
The access isn’t as easy at all. It’s also the culture though. Nobody buys guns for fun or to show off, they aren’t toys, there are barely any gun ranges and you don’t bring your kid to it.
You maybe have a gun for hunting, it isn’t an assault rifle and you only pull it out when you do go hunting.
The UK and Canada have similar occurrences, but not in the vast number as the United States. We all understand the access to firearms is the problem.

So it is not all about the access?
The military service part is affecting the “access”
“your MILITARY SERVICE weapon”
Yes, it’s about access.
/facepalm
Try to keep up champ.
They literally already do that

Why not both?
A part of the problem, not the only aspect.
Really? I’d say it’s a no Brainer. Easy access to firearms IS the problem.
Yeah that take is definitely a “no brainer”.
Not in the way you meant it, but still.
I mean it’s easily verifiable if you look it up that easy access to guns is the primary cause of gun deaths.
There is no problem on earth that can easily explained by only one thing.
Underestimating problems is an easy way to earn political points while never solving the overall problem.
I would suggest you use more of your brain in the future.
Yeah, except all the research and data points to easy access to guns as the issue. But yeah, bone headed take for sure.
