Here's an idea that might blow some minds...

What if (Just what if), all of the gun violence in America, has nothing to do with guns? What if something else is going?

For example, let's take biased media. When you watch Fox News, the overall picture that is painted by them always seems to be Worry. Panic. Be Afraid. Big Government is taking things away from you. Bad. Scary. Hate for the current president. Disdain. Fear of change.

When you watch MSNBC, the picture they seem to paint is Question. Why. Control from big business. Concern.

Obviously, the effects of both left and right media are very polarizing. Most people are either in 1 camp or the other.

I would argue that the "real news" comes from MSNBC, while the "Bullshit" "news" comes from Fox. I know many here will disagree with me on this but that isn't the point of my post. My point is this: Can the fear, confusion and misinformation put out by right wing media be a cause for a significant amount of gun violence?
