Gun culture is the source of so much suffering in America right now.
Guns are now the leading cause of death for children, teens, and young adults. The surgeon general calls it an epidemic, rightly so.
And it's because of guns that police feel terrified going into every encounter - which is why they feel the need to use overwhelming force, and why juries acquit them. Any suspect could be armed.
It's time to go to the root I believe. This has to change.

What do you do when your creative flow feels blocked? I share some of the tips that have worked for me:
@joedolson@toot.io Hey Joe! Any plans to support BlueSky in a future update of XPoster?
Is Twitter broken? I can't access DMs and when I tried to send a tweet (for the first time since Jan. 16) it said I had exceeded the rate limit.
360-degree surveillance cars also block traffic
