Americans don't care about mass shootings. Why would this be an issue?
Ahem, here in Canada we do.
America is a big place.
They need cars killing children to make the shootings deaths look less significant in the grand scheme of things.
Edit:here is a link to a CHILDREN'S book about why everyone needs an AR-15. it also includes a section about gun deaths are irrelevant because car deaths, as read by this youtuber around the 10:15 mark. I couldn't find an online source with the full book.
That’s a vanity-published book (note the lack of publisher information) by a local politician from Idaho, not something kids in every school across the country are going to have in their library. Shit, I bet most kids in his district don’t have it in their library. It was made purely for attention grabbing.
