A Few Myths Related to Guns Violence in America


  1. Gun violence is mostly committed by those with mental illness. (Actually, about 5% of those who commit gun violence have a "diagnosable mental illness.")
  2. If more African-Americans bought guns, it would scare lawmakers into passing sensible gun regulation. In truth, thanks to the NRA cash trumps inherent racism
  3. Video games are making our children violent. On the contrary, groups like the NRA are using first-person shooter video games to indoctrinate a new generation of potential gun enthusiasts
When you look at the gun industry as a microcosm of America's military-industrial complex (aka, "war is good for business") the reason why things are the way they are makes more sense.
