    It's because we have such easy access to information.

    It's already a blood bath over mayo. A person died, an other seriously hurt. Some people might argue that it couldn't have happened like that without a gun.

    No one wants to address the pink elephant in the room here and that pink elephant has nothing to do with guns

    What's your plan to get millions of them off the street and make sure nothing gets smuggled in from down south?

    MSNBC Headline:

    White mayonnaise forced upon African American at Subway's in former slave state causes understandable backlash.

    Yes.... That R word.... Being, " Realist".... One should never be afraid to be called a racist just for observing what is common sense and statistics.

    Smuggled in from the South? The guns are smuggled TO the south. The US is the biggest arms supplier of those drug gangs in the south. lol
    And why should I have a plan? While I do think you don't need to invent some policy and hope it works.
    The other western nations already have figured it out.

    If we got rid of the guns the ones down south would command a very profitable price here.

    I bet it was more about disrespect than it was mayo.

    1. Quickly give the perp a quick but fair trial.

    2. Then one appeal to take place within a year.

    3. Then execution via the electric chair, gas chamber, or hanging.

    This approach to criminal justice would probably eliminate a great deal of violent crime. With our system , if a capital punishment takes place, it is 20-30 years latter when no one even remembers the crime.

    Yeah, they have to execute the guy while people still remember who he was. If there’s a video of this murder that absolutely, positively and guarantees the guy on trial is the shooter, then execute him tomorrow. Put it on TV and make it a PSA.

    Unpopular opinion: the most painless execution method is also the least expensive: 12 gauge slug to the back of the head.

    Things must have changed since I was shooting shotgun, but are slugs cheaper than shot now?

    True enough. Slugs are so cheap compared to the lethal injection that I thought I'd splurge a little ;)

    Thanks to our southern friends, I believe have enough fentanyl to cover executions for the next several thousand years.

    That would also be a good option because opioids are incredibly pleasurable, but still, I like the idea that one moment you are completely fine, and before your pain receptors reach your brain, your brain no longer exists.

    Literally painless. You wouldn't even know anything had happened. Under $2 a shell.
