    My neighbor country, the Czech Republic also has very permissive gun control laws - it has a lot less shooting incidents per capita than the US.

    So, while gun control is one thing that’s really missing and should be done, there’s more going on - sometimes you read the word “mental health crisis”

    Tbh, I also know a lot of dumb motherfuckers, but in the US a larger amount of dumb motherfuckers seem to become homicidal twats.

    Saying he’s just a whack-job wanting to kill lotso-people is not enough, why the fuck does this happen so frequently?

      Its hard to find data on this, but I wonder if it could be related to more strict requirements for involuntary commitment in the US. And outside of involuntary commitment, also a much higher rate of institutionalization in general. Whereas mental health patients in the US generally voluntarily take themselves to a psychiatrist rather than being segregated from the general population. I also wonder about hospitalization stays comparison.
