because it turned out Americans are too meek or too ignorant to act
People need to miss at least three meals in a row before they start getting serious. We don't have the material conditions yet to act.
That's like trying to put on the seatbelt after the crash
Humans are dumb at the macro scale
Not really
How are you gonna act with an empty stomach tho?
Very hungry.
Without an alternative. People get very unhappy when they're starving.
On fat reserves.
Angrily
It also doesn't help that all of the people with guns, like the current situation. They may subsequently change their mind when the realities of the situation start to hit in a few years, but currently they're alright with it.
Not all gun owners like the current situation.
Source: Gun Owner, do not like current situation. There's a vast difference between a responsible gun owner and those ammosexuals who just want to be given an excuse to open fire at anything.
I definitely wouldn't say "all". There's plenty of us with guns that do not like the situation. What exactly do you expect everyone to do, go outside and shoot their Republican neighbor? Someone tried shooting Trump, and most leftists with >2 brain cells would agree that it would've been an absolute shit show if he'd succeeded in killing him.
I don't disagree that the group of people that like the situation are more heavily armed than the group of people that dislike it, but the same thing has been said for a decade now... Why not start changing that situation?
I’m glad people keep thinking like you do.
Thinking that you can just shoot your way out of your problems? Yeah, that mindset has been great for the USA! Definitely let's have more people like that!
"Cowardly" is the word you're looking for.
