Do they have gun free zones? If everyone was strapped all the time there’d be less mass shootings IMO considering the coward shooters always hit places like schools or stores where they know nobody is armed

Survival. When the jungle tears itself down and builds itself into something new. Guys like you and me, we end up dead. Doesn’t really mean anything. Or, if we happen to live through it, well that doesn’t mean anything either.

You're correct.

That doesn't take away from the fact that there'd be 1439 shootings involving homicide in Chicago alone to one of these events.

Compulsory service must be undertaken either in the armed forces or in civil defence (along with payment of the exemption tax) or exceptionally in civilian service. Military service is compulsory for Swiss men.
Do you think that if the US had:

1] compulsory service
2] universal access to health care, including mental health services
3] average Swiss level of living standards
4] much less use of SSRIs
5] decriminalized/medically treated recreational drugs

that mass shootings would still be as common???

Ye. Lower rates of gun ownership amongst violent demographics.

Also I presume mental health is taken into account when you are in the reserves. So lower risk of the unstable having access to firearms.

It's not homogenous nationality wise, but race wise.

Same as Australia. Guns are a way of life here what with all the wildlife that’s constantly trying to kill us

High levels of legal gun ownership but very low levels of gun violence.

Guess we’re not psychos

huh, Australia is presented as a country where a complaint population willingly gave up their guns.

Is that untrue?

When you filter out certain things in the U.S. it actually is extremely safe.

And when people try to blame "Gun culture" they actually mean "Gang culture".

If you do a quick search you'll see that Switzerland has stronger regulation on mandated background checks, registration of weapon ownership with local cantons, supremely higher quality of education and healthcare, mental health controls for weapon restrictions etc. etc.

But these narratives go against what American's want to believe, so the usual race bait is thrown out to satisfy the brain rotters.

The second post answers it all.

Americans have been eroded away by liberalism and our culture has turned to shyt. Do you think the numbers were this high back in the 50s?

It's because there is more inequality of wealth, status, and looks (more fat people/more deformed people from sitting too much & not going outside) here. Combine that with online dating & female reproductive strategy, and you have a lot more incels. Top that off with ssri's and a population of 10th prestiege Call of Duty Warlords and there you have it.
