I disagree that it’s making the problem worse. People tend to think that we are going to solve problems like this by being careful not to make people defensive. I’m with Chris Rock - if people are over 30 you aren’t going to change their minds (with rare exception). Right now the people saying there needs to be change and the people getting their backs up about it are all doing so in front of a young generation that isn’t allowed to participate in the conversation yet. But young people of the school shooting generation are growing up, and they are already starting to influence the election of lawmakers. They are the ones who are going to change things, no matter how defensive old people get.
