Marco Tabini @mtabini:
I have always wondered whether gun control would actually make any difference. The problem seems to me to be cultural, not legal.

@mtabini Speaking as a patriotic American, I have to say that our culture is not THAT fucked up.

Marco Tabini @mtabini:
@jeffporten I think so, too, as far as normal people go, but the sensationalization of violence must be like crack to the deranged.

@mtabini That’s inaccurate. You’re approaching it like a rational person. The point is, they’re not.

Marco Tabini @mtabini:
To those who say that gun control works in other countries: My question was specifically whether that’s confusing cause and effect.

@mtabini How about we try it and find out? It’ll be like a sociological experiment.

Marco Tabini @mtabini:
@jeffporten I’m afraid that’s up to you—I already happily live in a country that has very strict controls.
