Your last claim is absolutely infuriating, because it’s so incredibly dumb.
The liberals in the US has become convinced that the tool themselves are the problem, rather than the systemic issues that drive violence. The result has been that they’ve done everything that they can to limit or ban access to firearms; the actual result of their attempts has been to make it harder for marginalized people - such as the black woman in the video - to legally have firearms in many places. Sure, the laws treat everyone equally, but they have disproportionately impacted marginalized people. The other effect is that people left of center largely treat firearms as taboo and evil, so they simply refuse to own them, or be competent in their use.
In other words, libs have disarmed themselves. That leaves the conservatives and fascists as the ones holding the guns. And why the fuck would they oppose the oppressive government that they voted into power?
