Out of curiosity, do people here think this is strictly a guns problem, or a potential cultural problem as well?

I'm extremely vocal about wanting super strict gun control but I'm still not closed to the idea that there's a deeper culture-driven violence at work here that would cause people to just find other ways to kill each other even if we solve the gun problem.

is there anyone who actually thinks this is strictly a gun problem?

i don't honestly believe anyone who has any rationality thinks this. it's absolutely, entirely a culture problem. 100%. and it's a myriad of different cultural problems all coming together, one of those being gun culture (note: i'm not saying all guns are bad, or all gun culture is bad).

like everything else in the world, there isn't just one cause
