TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

Which would make sense if the homeless problem was actually caused by the homeless and not a shitty economy and "safety net" with gaping holes.

Fixed that for you.

Except for all of the gun violence carried out by middle-class white kids.

Which is a small minority of gun violence, as I'm sure you are aware.

And it, too, seems to be related to social stressors and a sense of insecurity.

"all the gun violence carried out by middle-class white kids"   

So what you mean is the gun violence that counts, right?

The point being that, yes, it isn't ONE thing.  Which is why, again, gun control is a tool.  ONE tool.  It isn't THE solution, but it should be part of an over all toolbox aimed at a solution.

No, what I mean is that it is a complex problem where you can't just point at one thing as an excuse to not do something.

It's just a blog, but I didn't want to link the scholarly articles since apparently you can't see those.

This article is sayng exactly what I said two posts ago.  A complex issue where gun regulation should be one piece of the puzzle, but hasn't been, thanks to the influence of the NRA, and other "don't take our guns/arm everyone" types.

You sure got one thing right.

I think you're confusing cause and effect.

So do you agree with that article or not?  YOU posted it.  Did you actually read the whole thing before you posted it?  Because it was made pretty clear in that article that, while yes it is a complex issue, gun control must be ONE element of the overall solution.
