They have metal detectors that people have to go through to watch them play but yet a crazy man walked right into a gun free school with at least 2 guns. They have armed security at their game but most are against it in public schools. If every NBA player donated a small percentage of their check this season it would probably be more than enough to put metal detectors and armed security in every school across the country.

      What you call 'both parties attacking each other' is most members of one party trying to pass the most mild common sense gun control laws in the developed world, while all members of the other party reject it because they are LITERALLY bribed by the gun lobby through campaign contributions. Failing to recognize this is the main reason why mass shootings still happen everywhere. As well as a gigantic and, honestly, very clever achievement of conservative politicians, media and the lobbies themselves, who have successfully convinced a massive part of the population that if one political side is for letting children die for them to accumulate money and power, and another one is against that, then this is 'two sides attacking each other' and the truth is probably in the middle and the solution is not in politics but rather in 'coming together' and thoughts and prayers and other nonsensical things like that.
      I mean, I don't care too much because I live in Spain, where almost no guns obviously leads to almost no gun violence, so I'm personally safe and I will always be, but I thought I'd point it out nevertheless.

      I'm not sure why you say we shouldn't look to sports figures for guidance. Certainly it is to bought and paid for politicians that you shouldn't look to for guidance, because if these people have an incentive to fight against gun control because they personally benefit from political bribes from the gun lobby, then you should be looking at literally everyone but them, the also bribed media and the gun lobby itself.

    • @AW-zk5qb
      @AW-zk5qb 2 роки тому

      The US is the greatest nation in the world when you include everything and have proper context.
      NO nation in human history has had the combination the US has had of power, influence, wealth, quality of life, accomplishments, medical breakthroughs, correct orientation toward human rights, openness, individualism, tolerance and democracy, the longevity of democracy, the universal ideas of the US, and the mechanisms of government, as well as the minds of Americans constantly questioning to improve, to continue to make America better. The criticisms, which are legion, and many of which are justifiably so are incorrect in their implication which, without saying so, implies that the numerous problems of America across an array of topics, stand in stark negative contrast to another nation or nations, that they would imply is better. The problem is that no such nation, which has been large, diverse, influential, and heavily engaged in numerous complex conflicts in the world, has ever been as good, much less better, than the US on the balance of good intentions, positive impact, and ability to channel influence and power into positive impact. Analogous nations, whether the imperial powers of Europe, Persia, Rome, Egypt, Mongolia, China, or any other major nation through history, have a track record of enslavement, colonization, and destruction compared to that of the US.
      Now, a common argument against this point is that America has done its own fair share of destruction and colonization, a legitimate argument. But if one took a serious look, one could not argue that the pure colonization, enslavement, and/or destruction of weaker nations that was a common practice in human affairs for thousands of years compares to morally ambiguous wars going askew, instances of torture, war crimes, and American involvement for the collection of resources. Lest I sound flippant and reductive of these major mistakes, I readily acknowledge that the list of American terrible mistakes is long and makes one seriously question anyone who would claim America has a divine morally objective right to decide the world. But even in saying that, the reality is that human nature is such, and conflict between nations, and the humans that make them up, has made conflicts between nations so intense, harsh and ambiguous, that even the very spotty record of the US sets them apart from any other nation that had a major role in history.
      I have heard people say that this may be true, but this is only because America is the world super power in a time in human history where human rights are given more importance than ever before, a time when we have the knowledge and human capacity to be more reticent with our power, and that America is not so much better in this more enlightened time than previous powers, who operated before society was more fully conscious of tolerance and rights of the other. I find that a somewhat compelling argument, but I would say that this “more enlightened world” has only become so as the result of a relative acceleration toward that affect that kicked into high gear right after the end of WW2, right as Pax Americana started. So the whole context of the modern era necessitating more care for human rights and the other, has only come about so strongly because of specific American actions and influence. I hear other arguments against America being the greatest nation in the world in the sphere of social, economic, racial and other societal measures. I would say that it is clear that there are certain smaller nations that have a higher average quality of life than the US, but for one, likely all of those nations are able to do so secure in the peaceful liberal world order overseen by the United States. More importantly, the typed of nations, generally the smaller European nations, are specific nation archetypes that will always be more oriented toward high quality of life provided that there is a powerful “Arsenal of Democracy,” allowing them to focus on their betterment. Essentially, if all liberal democratic nations were like New Zealand or Denmark or Finland in power, influence, and general nature, the world would be completely dominated by autocrats, authoritarians, fascists and all other forms of illiberal government.
      This is not a knock on nations like Denmark, but it should be said to recognize that in the real world, certain nations need to take the role of liberal democratic in orientation, but powerful and engaged in the world, and power and engagement necessitates aspects in a nation that would make it impossible to have the highest average quality of life and most spotless moral record, aspects like large population and economy for a powerful military, as well as a willingness to get your hands dirty and engage in so many conflicts to a point where you are eventually forced into doing morally ambiguous things. This isn’t to completely absolve the US of all the wrong its one, but it is important in contextualizing the situation. For the benefit of nations like Denmark, there have to be democratic nations like the US who become such nations that pure average quality of life can never match the likes of Denmark. Of course even within this context, the US can make changes to make life better, but those are at the comparative margins when we understand the type of nation the US. An aside should also be that one of the things brought up, healthcare, is not discussed in a fair way.
      There are certain things the US could improve in healthcare, but the narrative of free healthcare in foreign nations while Americans go bankrupt is very inaccurate in its implications. Besides the fact that foreigners much pay more in taxes and thus have less money for other material things, the US system does not have the same rationing and waiting time as others do. Furthermore, the US system comes up with the most advancements for healthcare and medicine, which other nations then use. Therefore, other nations’ quality of healthcare is higher because of America’s specific system, which is then pilloried. Additionally, the US system has the ability to more effectively treat urgent aspects of diseases. This isn’t to say the US system is better, it is to provide context to show that the disparity isn’t as wide as made seem, even though I think the US could learn some aspects from other nations. And this applies to most “examples” of lower quality in the US. And of course this is in the context of the aforementioned fact that for the flourishing of small peaceful democracies, there need to be an Arsenal of Democracy, which will then by its nature have a lower average quality of life. Even with all of this known, no nation as large and diverse as the US in human history has veer had close to as high an average quality of life.
      When you combine it with power, influence, accomplishments, longevity of democracy, institutions that orient the nation toward improving, and mix of pure power with emphasis on morality and understanding of its own imperfections, no nation in history comes close to the US. It might not have the top average quality of life in absolute terms, but when put into proper context, no nation compares to the US

      Wasn’t there a security guard at the grocery store? A former cop actually.

      @@actormertsirin Unfortunately I would say some schools are better secured than others. Not necessarily if the school has a security guard or not but if the school(s) have doors that are locked at all times and you have to ring a bell to be let in by office staff or have a badge or key to get in yourself. I would say not all schools have that but I could be wrong.
