    Gangs are targeted violence towards other gangs. It doesn’t really effect the public, most people think of gun violence as random acts done by people. Gang violence is something that is spawned again from our lack of safety nets and lack of education.

    Police killing people is also something that people don’t usually think of when it comes to gun deaths.

    Statistically you account for what the public perception is, but most anti-gun groups don’t. They lump everything together, which isn’t how you solve problems, it’s how you create a narrative that the US is the wild west with people getting murdered in the streets while crossing the road every minute of the day.

    It’s the same with the abortion debate, anti-abortion groups don’t like to see the nuance, they just want to paint a picture that an abortion at 2 weeks is the same as a 3rd trimester abortion. Which isn’t true.

    Nuance to problems is how you solve them, not ignoring the details.
