Guns for teachers - NOT amateur radio
So the ever modest President has met pupils from Florida who managed to escape the latest mass school shooting. That is good of him. We seem to hear about these shootings every week in the USA.
His answer? Allegedly, arm the teachers. Why not ask the basic questions about USA gun crimes instead? The USA seems to have more school mass killings by far than anywhere else. Does no-one want to understand why this is? Could it be something to do with the ease of obtaining deadly weapons perhaps? Better checks, yes. Why sell automatic weapons in the first place? Why sell guns?

USA and guns - NOT amateur radio
Yet again we hear about a mass shooting in the USA. This time it was a church and a kid as young as 5 was killed among the 26. The USA has a gun culture and a very high rate of killings. OK, gun ownership in Switzerland is high because of National Service, but they don't seem to have a problem.
Why is the USA so violent? Does gun ownership really make you safer?
