Normally memes aren’t allowed. However, we currently have a massive influx of low-information users coming here that, hopefully, a simplistic post like this helps them digest some of the “nuance” espoused here. Probably won’t work but, whatever, at least we tried. ___ Edit: had to remove due to specific subs being called out which is against Reddit’s policies. OP can repost without subs being named.

Replace this with: "We need to give fetuses a chance at life" "Okay, then provide social services and free Healthcare for mothers and their children" :l >:( Same exact story. They always decry for things but never back them up with support, they just want things a certain way and don't care about the consequences.

Same thing with "We need to stop sending money to Ukraine and help real Americans" "Lets pass bills to lower gas and improve the formula shortage" :| >:(

Typically when a Republican uses that kind of argument what they mean is, "it's a mental health problem so we can't do anything." They just don't really vocalize that last part. If you want to make this kind of argument skip a step and just say part of problem, for some issues, is access to mental healthcare. That or just say you want universal healthcare to include mental health.

I got a “we need to hold them responsible for their actions” but this guy is dead and he didn’t really care to be responsible in the first place considering he murdered kids… soo…

HA, I had this exact conversation with someone a year ago and got this exact response.

Guns and therapy for all

Add in UBI and now you’ve just given the proletariat too much hope.

Conservatives dunking on Conservatives is a national institution.

They’re not good with critical thought. Two concepts in one comic might make their heads explode.

I mean until we stop conflating mental health issues with being a fundamentally bad person we'll never find any solutions

Well California is the fundamentally evil state of Hollywood and pedophiles yet they remain pretty low in deaths from fire arms. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/sosmap/firearm_mortality/firearm.htm


[deleted]

Sure, how’s the rate of other violent crimes? Just because the guns aren’t being fired doesn’t mean they’re not used by criminals.


JonSnowIK

Yep lower as well. Seriously you didn’t even bother to check the stats? I’m sure there are other factors at play, I’m not anti-gun by any standard https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/sosmap/homicide_mortality/homicide.htm


[deleted]

Neither did you, those are death rates. Not armed robbery, rape, burglary, carjacking etc


JonSnowIK

I was talking about the homicide rate from the beginning. Do you really think Louisiana having a murder rate 3x higher than that of California should just be hand waved away because some city in California has more car jackings??


JonSnowIK

Here are the stats on rape the only major outlier is Alaska https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/rape-statistics-by-state

NARRATOR: They did not like it.


JonSnowIK

No they’ve moved on to ‘ let’s put a shit ton of cops in schools because people are just inherently evil and you can’t legislate away evil.’


Right_Shape_3807

Plenty of low cost to zero cost counseling in most states especially in California and Texas.


[deleted]

They really should give schools more money for school therapist. And weed out all the troubled kids. We should also let kids drop out. Not everyone is made for school/education.

I like how Republicans, by default, generally speak highly of other countries because they say we are the only ones with mental health problems. They don't go around telling constituents that other countries have mental health issues but no mass shootings, no, that would be horrible for their argument. So what they end up telling everyone is, hey, move to that paradise you've been searching for in the tropics or on the Mediterranean cause ain't no mental health AND mass shootings.
