Ooh, another low-effort America bashing post. Bonus for joking about murdered kids. Slow clap, very impressive.

I vote Democrat down the line, what other suggestions do you have in mind?
Recommend sending your kids to another country for schooling. Gun control isn't going to happen in US. Vote all you want. The democrats are also afraid to make strong changes on this. It's more likely the republican notion of everyone just having a gun all the time will catch on rather than real gun control. Sorry to sound so down. I would love to see gun control in US but they just aren't going to to it. There is far too much lobbying and far too many people that view guns and cars as more valuable than their own children.
Lol, send my kids to another country? Most of us here live paycheck to paycheck. Real talk? I took my kid out of school. Besides the threats of violence, public school in the US is a joke. I was homeschooled and I still ended up better educated than most people I know my age, without even really trying...

It's the American way...
Gun control isn’t going to happen in US.
This is false. We have a mountain of gun control laws in place already. Many of them are rarely enforced.
Maybe you meant that banning scary rifles is not going to happen in the USA? That would be an accurate prediction, based on the last few years of precedents set by our Supreme Court.

I like how you used the correct form of apostrophe at the end of friends' but your overall sentence is clear.
Truly, the cars of tomorrow will eat the orange cows of yesterday.
Careful, they have a lot of accounts, and they're not afraid to use them!
Spare me, oh demigod(s) of Lemmy!

It's not clever. It's just stupid.
Anything to not have to talk about reality, no?
Not sure I follow.
The reality of life in the US. Instead of admitting that the US, though not bad in some areas, is a complete shit show in too many other areas, it's easier to just say that any valid criticism is just US bashing
You think making fun of murdered kids is valid criticism?
Depends, but yeah it can be. Joking at something so dark might shame a few people in being honest about the problem. US gun laws are ab obvious joke pushed by politicians that don't care about dead kids, they just care about votes. I find that much more abhorrent.
I think it's Europeans on Lemmy who apparently think the US is a political monolith and they're making some kind of point. As if any American on a site like this isn't fully aware of the problem. I doubt it, frankly. If it's an American posting it, they should probably know that already and find a more suitable platform. Kinda preaching to the choir here. The thing is, if there were an easy solution we would have found it. Again, people who really don't understand the scope of the political and cultural problem posting snide and frankly ignorant comments doesn't help anything, in my opinion.
