would it help if houses were made of bricks? like i get usa has a gun problem, so perhaps one way to save lives (besides you know stop the gun problem in the first place… but we know that won’t happen) is to have proper walls?
Ah but you see that might cost $5 more per wall and we just can’t have that because that extra $5 per wall cost might make a rich man not able to golf as many hours at the country club!
How many people do you think are being shot at through walls? It’s always crazy to get insight on the stuff people think up. This stuff is pretty rare and over published.
Like I get that when shootings occur they are violent and we could take steps to reduce them (but we won’t)… But it’s not like even hearing gunfire in urban or suburban areas is common.
Unless you live in a very specific area, eg poor as fuck city neighborhoods fun violence isn’t something you’ll run into in your entire life.
Again, not saying we can’t do better, but I never get going to full on, why not armor houses scenarios.
Giving low income men opportunities and community and depression education will save more lives 🤷♂️

I’m assuming that meant to say ‘gun violence’ and that you don’t think certain kinds of violence is fun.
Indeed. My screen is all but dead.
Depends on the caliber. Bricks are pretty good at stopping pistol calibers. Rifle calibers, not as much.
