Wow hard to imagine that after the deadliest war in human history at the time that people would be hesitant to kill others in peacetime.
Also in countries without easy access to guns but with high levels of gun control and thriving black markets (like Mexico) they experience a fraction of school shootings compared to the us. That’s without even taking into account the sheer material differences between the two countries, with Mexico having a significantly higher poverty rate compared to the us.
Not only is this a unpopular opinion, it’s also a fucking stupid one too.
19 Countries with the Most School Shootings (total incidents Jan 2009-May 2018 - CNN):
United States — 288 Mexico — 8
Gun control in Mexico:
Mexico has extremely restrictive laws regarding gun possession. There are only two stores in the entire country, DCAM near the capital, and OTCA, in Apodaca, Nuevo León. It also takes months of paperwork to have a chance at purchasing one legally.
Leeja Miller’s channel is great in general, she started with a bit more ambiguous political positioning but here more recent videos have a much more apparent leftist bent
Value proposition isn’t there anymore either, airbnbs used to be super affordable but now match the price of hotels and if they don’t are in inconvenient locations.
Not to mention the impact it has on local housing supply and pricing.
Good point, it was too tempting to consider. Running a m1 or m2 mini seems like a better idea, but the allure of that much hardware for the price was too much to pass up
