To think "It's not a gun problem, it's a bad people problem" means to think that statistically the US has the worst people in the entire world. Apparently the country is a cestpool filled with (mostly white!) mass murderers. And some, I assume, are good people.

Ok, go ahead ... state your argument. What do you think the problem is, and how do you think it should be fixed?
Maybe there is no problem. Maybe that just "the price for freedom". (Like car accidents are often referred to as the "price for mobility".) But it's naive to think that there is no connection between lack of gun legislation and gun deaths. 1/3

Your country, not mine. You guys can set your priorities as you want. But I think it would be wise not to ignore the obvious connection between gun legislation and gun deaths. Look at the data, then decide if it's worth it. 2/3

But don't be afraid to look at the data! I mean foolish stuff like preventing the CDC from researching gun violance. If you feel like you have to "protect yourself" from scientific data then you are probably trying to defend a very weak position. 3/3
