Why can't our politician see that there are different guns for different purposes and band, or at least strongly control, any weapon that could be used for mass murders! Gun violence has gotten OUT OF CONTROL!
90% of the crap (movies) that comes out of Hollywood features, and glorifies, guns. Watch a movie like Road to Perdition and you see scene after scene where people are blasting the crap out of someone with automatic guns just for the hell of it.
Many TV shows are the same way. This goes back to the old cowboy movies of 60-70 years ago. This is what the public has been fed as "entertainment", just to make a buck. Is there any wonder that we have a problem with public violence?
