(26,591 posts)1. it's easy
destabilization of communities, destruction of the "commons," alienation from our essential humanity and destruction of community, people who can identify easier with electronic communication gadgets, contraction of opportunity, overall cheapening of life, meaning, and relationships - all of this is a recipe for people to snap.
not to mention its easy as shit to get a firearm ANYWHERE in this country illegally.
it's harder to get one legally.
if you have 200 bucks, you can get a gun in most places, probably a c note if a tweaker or basehead is selling it.
