So how do you propose fixing America's "gun addiction"?
Let's analyze. What causes people to shoot other people?
- Anger.
- Enjoyment (sadism and psychopathy)
- Self defense
If someone get very angry and shoots the person who irritates him/her, it's clearly because they are unfit for having a firearm? How would we fix this issue? Psychological examination. But if that person doesn't pass the test, he'll just get it illegaklly. Making regulations more strict leads to the exact same path.
Enjoyment:
We enter another problem. Psychopaths frequently go undetected, they are very skilled at passing by undetected, and are very calculating.
You'd need an extremely efficient psychological examination. One that could break any lie. Certainly a very skilled psychologist won't have a session with an entire country. So the answer? AIs.
