what's a kid really?
now, Americans can own rifles very nicely at age 18. 21 for a handgun. is that a kid?
can people make fairly good choices at age 21?
WHAT IS THE AGE GROUP WE'RE TALKING ABOUT?!
you see a lot of violence, but you can thank the gangs for that.
they're doing fairly illicit things anyways, so really, should gunners be held accountable for gangs popping caps randomly?
they typical gun enthusiast is very well behaved, because they have taken up a heavy mantle of responsibility. i don't mind if people around me are packing heat. Gun crimes are rarely committed by people with permits for legal guns.
that however cannot be said for those who got a gun through stealing or looking through their dad's stuff. which is where all this stupid publicity comes from
now, guns in school and what not
police are not readily available to help resolve incidences where self defense if required, but there's a lot of emotional turmoil on the campuses. Suicides are not a factor in this environment because the god damned depressed teens will find a way anyways.
the major concerns are shooting incidences between antagonistic students which i have no real answer to. I say it would help in some ways (a shooter is less likely to target a armed school), and be detrimental (aggression because of emotional drama and arguing).
in a campus where any student can be carrying a gun, people are less likely to act out as if they do, they're most likely going to get shot up. You act irrational and become a threat, you can be neutralized. I'm not against carrying arms in campuses nor completely for it, but i do think it's reasonable to let students apply for carrying permits with the local police.
carrying in other public places has not proven to be a problem.
