“But, man, they’re allowing an 18-year-old to buy assault rifles. Something is just wrong with that.”
“The only thing that I think about is … you get guys that are 21 years old, and that’s the first time they can buy a beer,” Glenn said.
Glenn has three adult children. All are out of the house. One is in college. But you don’t need to be a parentEighteen-year-olds don’t need assault rifles. Neither do 28-year-olds. Or 48-year-olds. Or 58-year-olds. No one does. Instead, we’ll take our chances, right? We’ll keep living in a society that prioritizes the right to own weapons our forefathers couldn’t imagine over the right of a 6-year-old to not get shot in school. But what does the Second Amendment mean, exactly?
That’s true. But it’s getting easier, because the shootings keep happening, sometimes so frequently their shock doesn’t last a news cycle before another one happens. It’s on everyone’s mind this week. But for how long? Do you think about Sandy Hook — where 20 kids were shot and killed in Connecticut, less than 10 years ago — anymore? Unless the memory is triggered by another shooting?
The Uvalde shooter went to a gun store on his 18th birthday and walked out with the means to end the lives of 19 kids and two adults. No"good guy with a gun" was going to stop him. Heck, the police struggled to stop him, and that’s not their fault. The setting was stacked against them.
