I mean was it this bad say 50 years ago?(all the mass shootings) no and i'm pretty sure guns where just as common

hell my grandfather told stories of when no one batted an eye when he'd carry his gun to school because he liked to do a little hunting on his walk home.

This bad? No.

amazing and i've yet to be anywhere near any of them. and I live in a area its almost safe to assume every other house has guns in it.

as said some areas just have criminal problems. rural life is just better than city life if you want peace I suppose.

oh also to add before any of that we did have a bombing that killed and injured plenty enough people. a bombing in the 20s using homemade materials. you want people dead enough you'll find a way.
