A bunch of kids were murdered in Connecticut, and now it seems all everyone wants to talk about is guns and gun control. I'm going to ignore the obvious hypocrisy about this as the US is bombing the shit out of innocent people in Yemen, Afghanistan, and Pakistan and just shake my head in disgust that this is the top issue when total economic collapse is still ever present - even more so as fucking Obama is using his popularity amongst asshole idiots to start pushing for austerity and coming for their social security under the bullshit pretense of "compromise".

As for gun control dealing with gun violence, it's just another band-aid solution to the inevitable atomisation, alienation, poverty, and the complete absence of hope that comes with capitalism and will continue to manifest itself with massacres, riots, or suicides.
