In fairness there's a lot of overlap between those wanting more gun restrictions and those wanting better healthcare and more awareness of mental health issues. Whereas there's a lot of overlap between those who refuse to make guns harder to get and those who also refuse to talk about better public services like healthcare. Let's be honest, the only time I hear conservatives talk about mental illness is as a deflection from gun control. So next time you're wondering why there's so much willingness to restrict gun access, it's partly because the other side of the coin isn't offering any solutions at all, just excuses.
