“We need to be very clear, you are not going to get gun deaths to zero,” he said. “It will not happen. You can significantly reduce them, by having more fathers in the home, by having more armed guards in front of schools. We should have a honest and clear reductionist view of gun violence, but we should not have a utopian one.”

Plenty of Western countries with lots of guns that don’t have the same issues with gun violence.

i was flabbergasted when i first heard americans have security & armed guards at schools. the closest to that any of the schools i went to had was cameras watching the doors and overweight PE teachers

We don’t have that either. Best we can do is cops with excessive cowardice.

For some it takes a village.
For some like Charlie it takes an orgy. Of exclusively middle aged dad bods.

A conservative saying something that sounds reasonable in order to convince the listener that the opposite is true.
Conservative messaging 101 right there.

This is a reasonable fear in a world where pilots are hired based on their status of being a minority. Is it not? That was the whole point, DEI practices enforce the ideal that minorities aren’t qualified.

At least you admit being a racist. Good for you!

Yeah, without knowing context, you might think it’s someone admitting that we need gun control, but no, his point was that we shouldn’t care about the gun deaths so much…
