The more guns you have . . .

 . . . the more all-too-preventable gun murders  will occur with depressing, clockwork regularity.

More mass shootings by various hateful, white supremacist cretins. 

More impulsive, of-the-moment shootings motivated by anger and pride. 

More killer cops abusing the law and hiding behind their badges. 

More militia whackjobs playing at paramilitary politics of terror on behalf of their GOP enablers and cheerleaders. 

It's pretty simple.

The record screams for itself. 

More guns means more murder. 

Less guns, less murder. 

You can't prevent every murder-sure, okay, fine.

But you can save quite a few lives, and encourage a culture of communication and civics over force and fraud into the bargain. 

Sane, substantial gun control policy would be the first step.

Do we have that in us, here in Baldy Ol' Eagleland USA?

Maybe.

Hard to tell right now.
