an absurdly violent culture with too many guns. the culture needs to reduce the violence, and remove the guns already... or simply state how many innocent people you're perfectly fine with being killed for any reason each year, including if that happens to be your own family because you believe guns are fine that it's someone else's issue.

Absurdly violent culture? Culture is arguably less violent than at any point in recorded human history. If anything the issue is repression of the inherently violent human tendencies. Why else would people be so fascinated by violent movies and television?
