No I would not say gun violence is caused by guns. Gun violence is/are violent act(s) committed by people using guns.
Am I in favor of Americans owning guns…no. Do I believe the 2nd Amendment permits Americans to own guns, yes. BUT I also believe that the 2nd Amendment allows government regulation of gun ownership…the key words in the Amendment being ‘well regulated militia.’
So even if an individual claims to be a militia of one, the militia can b regulated.
