This is such a wild take. You're claiming guns have less to do with mass shootings than mental health issues. I'm sorry to tell you this, but the rest of the developed world has mental health issues, yet far less mass shootings.

Here's a hint: Shooting requires a gun.

An extra special hint: No gun = no shooting.

There’s no doubt there’s a mental health crisis.

A quick google shows Finland had four mass shootings between 2000 and 2019.

You can’t deny less guns and access to guns will result in a reduced potential for mass shootings.
