This country has gone on the wrong path. Everything is breaking. I don't know if I should stay here. Gun Laws won't change anything. But thanks to our media and Hollywood indoctrination we have this weird violent but also lazy culture among the general population. We need to act now to work on our society. Not our guns. But the mass people here do not believe its a social issue, they get offended.
