Yes and somehow gun violence is always played up. Like some unstable 16 year old shooting up his school is somehow an argument against guns, when it really is an argument to arm the teachers at the very least. That unstable kid wouldn't have an easy time if someone at school could fight back.

Not sure where the deep fear of guns originates.

If you removed inner city gang violence and suicides from the gun statistics, the United States would look like most European nations as far as gun violence goes, even though we're incredibly well armed as a populace. Mass shootings are fucked up and horrible but a drop in the bucket of total gun deaths compared to gang bangers shooting other gang bangers.
