What passes for entertainment in this country has changed in the past 30 years. More shows highlight the use of guns and the bloodletting. Could this be influencing how contemporary Americans have become desensitized to the need to respect what power and responsibility there is with gun ownership.
I don't understand your "same time period". The people killed on 9/11 were killed in about 2 1/2 hours and not all were American. I would think the 160,000 killed in gun related homicides were over a longer period of time.
