The gun rights y’all have?
Now, most people would tell you that Gun Control Works and that you should just do that and get less dead kids per month which is a generally good thing.
… But here’s another thing to consider. As long as you’re allowed to purchase weapons for cheap and easy.
You do realise you can in fact do something about the assholes in your government and your oligarchies with those guns, right? That they can be used for more than just killing children?
Luigi Mangione seemed to get it.

ITT Europeans tell us shit we already know about changes most of us want because they don’t understand gerrymandering and the electoral college
USA could be, but isn’t the greatest country in the world.
Despite his severe back problems, Luigi mangione is the only one of you who has a backbone.
Americans are some of the most unintelligent people on earth
International rankings of the US are abysmal https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_rankings_of_the_United_States
Peace:
“Vision of Humanity 2024 Global Peace Index ranked 132nd out of 162 countries”
…yup. sounds about right. We’ve been at some kind of war for pretty much the entirety of our existence…
Well at least you’re good at… losing wars, I dunno
The winning or losing was almost always secondary. The main thing is to spend a load of money on wars. We’ve never failed at that.
Destabilizing other countries and exploitation of natural resources and cheap labor, in order to maintain USD and military hegemony. That’s why.
Military skill was a use it or lose it thing. I wouldn’t be surprised if all of the wars that the US has been fighting have been intentional, specifically in order to maintain skilled soldiers.
Government spending in the Military Industrial Complex is the point.
An able

It’s n.1 in total wealth though, that’s great!

The U.S. is an oligarchy.
Even if someone you don’t like asks you not to draw Muhammad, you still have the option of not drawing Muhammad.
Ok another thing people haven’t really touched on is government restrictions on dangerous shit generally. I’m not just talking about guns, but also cars. When I was in the states I saw so many car accidents and bits of car on the road. That doesn’t need to happen. It turns out that if you have proper driving tests and mandatory classes, people don’t crash as much. Same with guns though. Owning a gun is fine if you learn how to properly use and store it.
You need a second civil war
Usa was once founded by a bunch of outlaws and runaways and has never fundamentally changed since.
This is almost way too nice.
America was founded by businessmen who fancied themselves as a new aristocracy, and religious zealots who were such assholes they could no longer co-exist with Europeans.
You have a massive obesity problem that is killing you and it is not normal.
Americans have it better then most countries in the world. Stop acting like you aren’t rich or more privileged than others.
All of your sitcoms are crap. The same recycled gags over and over. Unpleasant people who hate each other snarking, saying “oh my god” and then explaining their jokes.
