Kids have better access to guns than education or healthcare...

(5,101 posts)To me, it is one of the most powerful cartoon I've seen about guns control.
I have posted it a few months ago when Las Vegas happened.
Why the Hell would an ordinary citizen need a gun ?????

I have 4 guns, 2 of which are not operable. The most useful is a 20 gauge, bolt-action shotgun. This is good for snakes and 'varmints' that try to get my ducks or their eggs. The other operable gun is a .22 single-shot, bolt-action rifle. This is handy for troublesome pests in the rare instance of them being too far away for the shotgun to dispatch.
All of my neighbors are hunters and gun owners. They are responsible hunters and obey the laws and limits regarding game.
There are legitimate reasons for gun ownership, but I can't think of any legitimate reason for non-military citizens to own military weaponry.

We have very restrictives laws about guns but hunters can have a riffle under conditions.

(5,101 posts)Well, I try generally to bring a smile with the European vision of the Trump circus.
This is why I avoid this kind of toons. Cartoonists do not only drawn for fun, many are activists, they deliver a message through their art.
These toons share all the pain imaginable, show the madness and the heartless soul of guns' worshipers.
