The U.S. has far higher rates of gun deaths than Canada, Europe or Asia. The difference may be that America has more guns than people – nearly 120 for every 100 Americans, according to numbers from the 2018 Small Arms Survey. NBC News’ Tom Costello looks at other countries that responded to mass shootings with new gun laws. His colleague Keir Simmons says that kids in the U.K., including his own, “don’t worry about the dangers of going to school.” » Subscribe to NBC News: http://nbcnews.to/SubscribeToNBC

World Wonders Why America Is Rife With Mass Shootings
source
How can You let kids use machine-guns? Is it still wild West in your country???
In states that have opened gun s they dont have this going on
Is it the gun or is it the gun violence that spews out of Hollywood that glorifies the use of a gun.
Everyone needs a gun in the usa that way they know not to try it
The US doesn’t really care about who lives or dies it’s all about political power and the top 1% being able to keep their power and money to feed their family and lavish lifestyle. The only thing that would change anything is if their kids and family suffer the trauma these family in Texas, Florida, Ct and etc did but of course that’s highly unlikely because some of them are able to afford home schooling their kids 🤨 which many of us normal Americans can’t. It will take a whole nation to fight our way to change!
I'm numb to this.
What's really nuts is The UNITED STATES try to be the worlds Policeman. It's in no positions to tell other countries whats right.
I'm buying more guns
The world don't care they know our government is trying anything to control guns
How and why someone who is 18 can legally buy guns when they can't buy Alcohol until 21!!! America needs to wake up. Make gun ownership much stricter. Most police in the UK don't carry guns. They just aren't part of our life or culture.
It was just a Normal Day in Amerikkka
the u.s. desperately has to figure this out, for the sake of their countries future. it seems like such a clear cut issue, yet nothing happens time, and time, and time, and time……… again. i cant imagine how frustrating this has to be for americans, seeing how frustrating it is for me as "just" an outsider. hopefully the people responsible come to their senses. but at this point, im not too hopeful.
MKULTRA ! That's how come.
its easier to get a gun than baby formula
Firearms are now the number one cause of death for children and teens. There was an armed guard at Uvalde. Police quickly arrived outside and they had, you guessed it, guns. Shooters usually end up dead often by their own hand so more guns are not going to stop them. Texas and Florida have some of the highest rates of mass shootings and there are more mass shootings in the US than in any other country in the world! We need to institute common sense gun laws in the way EVERY OTHER COUNTRY HAS DONE!!! 90% of Americans are in favor of this but the GOP has sold its soul to the NRA. If you are one of those who is fighting to keep guns completely unregulated, I can only fervently wish you reap what you sow.
How will Anti- gun laws work now? Confiscate Guns from people? Shouldn’t have had given guns in large numbers in the first place.
MASS SHOOTINGS OPERATION is why. School Shooter Op sunce Columbine etc. The PATTERN is obvious. The gun confiscation program kicks in immediately. Defund the police, BUT Politicians get armed security to escort them. Over 10 years since Columbine op and Leaders are lookinh just as phoney as ever. Bullet proof doors and windows could have been installed. And picture ID Key Cards given to principles and teachers and students for safer entry. BUT NOOO now these leaders play the public and their emotions. All these School Shooter events are scripted. But God is greater, and after these hard lessons He will eradicate this secret covered group of psychopaths playing Dictators over the majority. Zephaniah 1:17,18…..and 3:8. James 5:1-5. Matthew 24:20-22 What did Jesus say there?? After the great Tribulation God will instruct Jesus what to do to raise the dead and guide humanity up a beautiful path of holiness Matthew 25:31-40; Isaiah 35:4-7 and such beauty, rest, love, mercy, the Lord in genuine concern for everybody, because he die for everyone he certainly cares for everyone. It takes time for growth, first the wisdom of God see that it is better to have the hard lessons now. Then all the rest of eternity there will be peace happiness and life everlasting. John 3:16. 😁🕊👍👋
My heart is with all people who experience senseless loss of loved ones. But i am definitely not with America, who are the main cause of conflicts in the world, and global poverty due to Americans overconsuming. But i think also many of these mass shootings in USA are manchurian candidates so that America can break the constitution and remove the right to bear arms, so they hypnotize citizens to commit school shootings. Either USA is an insane population, or they are being hoodwinked with Manchurian candidates so people willingly allow the banning of civilians possessing guns.. i Think it is a red herring
And the world will continue to watch this country. A county where people love their guns more.
The problem is the US has the best government money can buy. Our gerrymandered system of legalized bribery isnt set up to solve real problems when there's money to be made.
i just dont understand why govt doesnt prevent this from happening. uniquely american truly.
I am shocked oh my what is happening in America?
Over half the 45000 gun deaths were suicides? Why is this the first time I’ve heard this?
A gun is a tool just like a "news" reporting company and all tools are used to perpetuate an effect. The effect that is perpetuated is completely controlled by the heart and mind of the tool user to achieve their agenda. The tool user that has a heart and mind that has rejected God will always seek to perpetuate their will which is based on the world perspective of selfish convenience. Deuteronomy 13:18, Holy Bible – KJV.
GOP claims having more good guys with guns is the solution,,,, well except when they hold trump rallies, no guns allowed, or NRA meetings, no guns allowed… their not completely stupid….
Cultural retardation
Cause only in America is it God Guns & Glory…. How moronic of a quote! Only a country at war with itself would use God Guns & Glory in the same sentence!
Because of a little thing called freedom, which most of the world will never understand.
It's simple. We are selfish hostile people. It's the same reason we're rife with road rage incidents and homeless people. Instead of holding ourselves and our communities accountable, we take the easy way out and blame guns. Every single household in Switzerland has a fully automatic battle ready rifle, with one of the lowest gun crime rates in the world. Why? Because they don't have spoiled American ego.
Why do you need a Gun.
As the man stated “ America is one ☝🏾 of the most backward countries on earth” and it's a fact!!
Because America isn’t strict in guns. They just don’t care 🤷🏾♂️ tbh
Dear gun people,
Isn’t the government tyranny you’re all afraid of already here? and what are your guns doing to stop it? NOTHING
seems a shallow perspective to me, the perspective that calls this a tragedy,
rather i could be seen as a beautiful gift,
a release into a numinous energy that only the saints dream of,
a lesson for their loved ones on impermanence and so a potential release for them too.
a redirection from the values of the individualistic netherworld of human culture,
into an understanding of who and what and where we really are, beyond the realm of appearance,
our so-called lives just dew drops on a very living and eternal tree,
dew drops as easy-come-easy-go-easy-come back again as chips at a blackjack table,
nothing to mourn any more than if we fell down and tore a hole in some jeans,
because there are more jeans where those came from, and we will always be wearing out and putting on new clothes,
no need to 'save lives', we're not almost out of them,
these little bubbles always bubbling up again for the one thing we really are to always find reflection in,
but a need to be compassionate about a perspective that lives in suffering while they are living these lives,
the boy at the center of this also happily released,
a release from what by all accounts was a life of unhappiness,
and it sounds like this was his great call out to express his unhappiness,
and i didn't know about his unhappiness but now i do,
now i can look at him with compassion, and before i didn't even know him,
and now he's resolved his own life for himself,
and if i believe the news headlines there are others like him, also suffering,
and if i encounter them, i'll shine that compassion on them too,
maybe they just need to be seen, and to felt understood, and loved.
