What is the real issue/cause and why continue to be ignored. Why? Because the politics and the media have made it to be as it is.

Different example of why some issues/causes are addressed and others are not.

We have all heard about or have some knowledge of MADD (mother's against drunk driving). The mothers of America have demonstrated this cause on and off throughout history. However statistically equivalent or worse is the deaths caused by cell phone use while driving. Where is the rage and cause of the mothers about cell phones and driving? Non-existent! Why? Because guess who is a major user of cell phones while driving? Unlike alcohol.......THE MOTHERS!!!!
There is not rage or rising because it would affect something they hold near and dear to their personal way of life.....THEIR CELL PHONE.

The same distorted/biased/politicized focus is presented day in and day out regarding guns.......WHEN A SHOOTING OCCURS .........that fits their agenda.

Until the real cause of shootings is addressed there will be no real assessment of what is the real issue, let alone what can practically be done to fix/solve/eliminate the problem.

Every day, several times a day there is the call to "do something" about gun control. However there is just as obvious an absence of what is being suggested to be done than WILL RESULT in the elimination of school shootings.

Why is that?
