We could, but we won't. Have you seen who's currently in charge of our country? Even if Starmer gets into power, no ceasefire will be called for.

Our country has a vested interest and lots of money invested in Israel, same as the US.

Meanwhile Reddit is the Israel propaganda machine, so I guess swings and roundabouts?

Definitely one way of trying to . One question though, who's going to pay for all that?

The mental health services are not going to be free and the gun owners certainly won't be cool with paying it. The government definitely won't pay for it...See, this is why I say I have no faith that the problem won't be solved any time soon, if ever.

Too many hard and expensive choices to make that will prove massively unpopular with large parts of either side of the argument.

Gun ownership is a touchy issue to the US population in general. shrugs

Ease of access to firearms is a massive part of the problem, but saying that I will be downvoted even more. Add in the fact there are people having mental issues and breakdowns more than ever, and you can see why mass shootings are increasing.

Simply put, it's not an issue that is going to be solved any time soon, if ever. It is a highly politicized issue, which you can tell by the ferocity of the responses I got to my flippant original comment.

Fighting to the death over dirt and rocks, basically.

We should be reaching for the stars right about now, but here we are dying for dirt, rocks and oil...

As the honorable President biden said "It's just the price of war".

War unfortunately brings death to innocent civilians in droves. We are still such a barbaric race :\

Tracing written records and architectural history, one of the earliest precursors to the modern-day shelf were the storage units at the back of Christian churches prior to the medieval era.

So, maybe?

A worldview from 2000 years ago. What forward thinking politicians we have in this day and age!

The Nordic countries make up five of the top six most unionized countries, with Sweden being in 3rd place.

Good luck beating them, Tesla! You're gonna need it.

I'm not arguing my dude. It's called responding ;)

I see what I see from his comments, which is ; Innocent Muslim/brown people being killed is the price of war meanwhile innocent Ukrainian/white people being killed is a tragedy and international war crime that must be answered for.

I really don't expect anything else from a US president on this issue. This is coming from a white westerner, as well. I just hate the hypocrisy of it all.
