How to stop mass shootings.

See thats the problem with American attitude, 'its not the guns its the people' But if they didn't have access to the guns then the people won't die. Most mass shooting guns are bought legally. School mass shooters are in most cases 18ish. Raise the age to 21 and I guarantee you will see far less shootings.

And I know that bad people will always get access to guns, but its really not a valid point. Its like saying we should legalize heroin because people still get a hold of it.

Simple solution:

Raise the age of being able to buy a weapon to 21. I can't believe that some states don't allow drinking till 21 but its perfectly legal to buy a weapon.

I also believe assault rifles should be securely locked away, more responsibility needs to be placed on owning a weapon. You cannot tell me that a handgun is not sufficient to protect your home.

Criticism.

Yes I'm looking at a kickstarter, but im not confident I can raise the 100k needed in such a short time.

When will Americans say enough is enough with the lies greed manipulations and intimidations from the DEA FDA and big pharma which are all in bed with one another.

The drug market needs to become competitive and for the people, you shouldn't be able to patent a drug. And there should be limits on the profitability. Obviously this would need to cover r and d costs. But hiking drug prices like valeant did should be illegal.

I know what you mean, but its a competitive world out there. Social media is now a job. Getting people to look at you is a job. Both tools can make business opportunities beyond my tiny city. Instead of reaching the 2 million who live in my county, I can reach countless millions on line just by promoting my brand on youtube and facebook

If you can pioneer an online dog obedience school, the world will be your oyster! ;-)

Thats the plan :D

Mrs. Sherlock and I want to do that this summer in the States!

I completely agree. Everything now is just 'apply online'. There was a day where you dress nicely, have you CV ready, go to the place you want to work and hand your cv to the boss. Not anymore.

But I disagree with the brand part. This is the social media time, you most definitely are a brand
