The strict(er) regulations ended, but the pandemic is definitely still on-going. If it was over, all regulations, worldwide would be gone.

How many reasonable countries are there, iyo?

I feel like the only one out there is Switzerland, but that's because they are so homogeneous that they don't have to worry about infighting, maybe another 1 or 2 but just about every country has a garbage government that ruins any good the people do

San Jose is my home town. One of my friends lives right by there and posted "Woke up to a shooting outside my house." I take VTA all the time when I'm there and know exactly where the railyard is. I doubt I would have been hanging around there, but it's always slightly more unsettling when these happen close to home. Closest one to home before this one for me was the one at the Gilroy Garlic Festival a few years ago.

That argument falls flat when you consider every state has their own gun laws and it's easy to travel with them.

It could stop a lot of shootings if we had universal gun laws. To pretend it wouldn't make it more difficult is asinine. I hope your dumbass guns keep you warm at night.

I understand that Russian people are majority "white" or "light-skinned", but do we really call them "white people"?

I just never considered it, lol

It seems more like in my mind there's some kind of auto-connect that gets drawn with a relation to English that I don't have with Russians that qualifies them as "white people"

The only country I said was good was Switzerland, which is white but it's also one of the safest and happiest countries in the world. Later it added in some bad countries and while some have darker skin they are also known shitholes that treat their people like shit, would you really want to live in the middle east, China, Russia or China? I don't think anyone should because of their laws and cultures not whet skin color is.

I don't think that, Switzerland is good for a multitude of reasons, the fact that they're all white isn't one of them.

You can say the same for other countries and their gun laws. Outside of maybe the UK most European countries dont actually have that restrictive laws in place, atleast not much more (or in some cases less) than even california. i wouldnt really say its more the racial make up (though i do think theres some of that at play), but rather the other systems in place that tends to cut down on violent actions. easier access to healthcare, better job security, better access to education and college options, less wealth disparity, more optons when it comes to voting and parties to represent them ect. and a whole host of quality of life aspects which makes people more content with their lives (and more docile to an extent) which cuts down on the will to lash out for a host of other reasons.

though a good chunk of those aspects tends to come from money saved thanks tot eh US forking over obscene amounts of money to the UN for defense. money that then those countries can put into their healthcare, educations ect.

if the US had more social safety nets in place youd see significantly less gun violence and violence in general as well as suicides. theoretically you wouldnt even have to touch guns and piss over peoples rights to make a significant dent.
