    The science supports the effectiveness of rights violations? Neato. I’m sure we could find other ‘science backed solutions’ if we don’t consider rights in the analysis.

    There are things we can do to address genuine root causes of different types of firearm-related violence. Banning guns, leaving all those young people in horrible situations because you refuse to analyze the situation and patting yourself on the back sounds about right, though.

    Because letting children die instead of just using sensible gun regulations like most of the world is a must in case you need to try another jan 6th, huh?

    It’s possible to disagree with someone without being a dick. Try it some time.

      The science supports the effectiveness of rights violations?

      Do you honestly think everyone having access to a firearm is a fundamental human right?

      Because… it very much isn’t.

      For more about those, you can read on

      https://www.un.org/en/global-issues/human-rights

      And here, in a listed format, and you’ll very much notice the absence of being armed.

      https://www.amnesty.org/en/what-we-do/universal-declaration-of-human-rights/

      Let’s take article 3 as an example of a fundamental human right.

      Everyone has the right to life (and to live in freedom and safety).
      

      Do you think the US would manage to better protect that right if they accepted the actual science on the issue, rhe one which proves people would be safer and there’d be less gun violence if reasonable regulation was instilled on a national level?

      Hope this helps, because people like you need to be helped so we can help ensure better fundamental human rights in the US.
