Kyle Rittenhouse, the Arbery trial, a kid killed in an accidental weapon discharge, drive by shootings of children, suicides, children with easy access to guns, school shootings, gang killings. How many tragedies are the consequence simply of the presence of a gun?
Yet news reporting almost never asks about the source of the gun or just how it was acquired. Hands are thrown up, parents weep, the police chief gives a press conference. Nothing happens in legislatures, and gun manufacturers breathe another sigh of relief.
This is how it works in America, where even the Supreme Court is terrified of the Second Amendment.
