I hate this whataboutism. The odds of getting shot in the US are so incredibly low especially for tourists. Not to mention I’ve never in my life seen a firearm

Not to mention I’ve never in my life seen a firearms check next to the coat check in any establishment.
- rootw0rm 3y agoit's not uncommon for open carry states to have lock boxes inside the entrance of government buildings for people to stow their firearms. i haven't personally seen it other places (i.e. museums), but it's actually a thing

I'm most annoyed with how much people care about it when its a tiny fraction of deaths and less than 1% if you remove suicides. Meanwhile as I age, the number of healthcare/medical related problems become more real. Few people talk about obesity being a problem, Fewer talk about the other 50% of causes of death.

- amanaplanacanal 3y agoWondering how you think that. As far as I can see people talk about obesity all the time. Unfortunately it’s not a solved problem at population levels yet.
