    Americans were never for this and polling data bears that out

    when thousands of lives are on the line, it takes more than polling to convince people you stand for something

          So, precisely what do you expect me, in a different state, alone, to do about this, that will effect widespread change in a timeframe that you would find acceptable?

          There are rational options that are tragically slow and irrational ones that involve throwing one’s life away in order to achieve little to less than nothing.

          If you’re just angry at the US and its population, that makes two of us, but lashing out at someone pointing out that the situation is not hopeless and work is being done to ensure that this does not continue does not help anyone.
