"There's no one out there advocating for more mass shootings..."...

@beckyromero despite your repetition, the number of guns in a society corresponds to the number of shootings and shooting deaths.
You bear responsibility for results when you keep repeating policies like that.
Perhaps nobody really thinks Americans should have fewer shootings or deaths. You're not surviving. Okay?

"Men just are generally more violent," said Jillian Peterson, president of the Violence Project at the time of the study. She's a forensic psychologist and professor of criminology and criminal justice at Hamline University. "There are many theories as to why that is."

As NPR reported, researchers say that men, more than women, tend to externalize their problems and look for others to blame, which can translate into anger and violence. And when women do choose violence, guns are not typically their weapon of choice.

But if you think violence is just a U.S. problem, consider that a 2019 United Nations report found that men commit roughly 90% of murders worldwide (not just gun-related, but all murders).

I'd venture to say that in human history, men are probably responsible for upwards to, if not exceeding, 99% of all violent deaths.

@beckyromero guns in your society guaranteed this level of harm. Dems guaranteed it'll continue. Republicans want to increase it. It's bipartisan. Enjoy. With the cars, guns and poverty that are killing Americans now, you're not surviving.
Men vs women. Whatever. Yuppers!
See the Dems excuse this by man hating.

Excluding suicides there were nearly 17,000 firearm deaths in the U.S. in 2024.

That's almost as many deaths that Russia inflicted on Ukraine in the same year, a country with a population about 1/10th that of the United States.

@beckyromero okay! The effects are obvious to everyone but Democrats and Republicans and their complicit unipolar world imposing electorate.

@Roundandroundwego

I suppose you'd blame Stalin's death camps in Siberia and the tens of millions of civilians deaths in China under Mao Zedong on the U.S., too.

You need to wake up and realize that there is plenty of evil in the world - always has been. And that not everything bad that happens is somehow the result of U.S. policy.

@beckyromero guns killing her people today and every day, making them more and more violent - she talks about Stalin and uses anti history. Okay. I'm fine with that m
