Could be that western cultures have more free time and/or being physically present has been trained out of people via marketing

I plan on setting up my own server within the next couple months, but thorough tutorials would be a good way to boost the community I imagine.
Agreed. Community or much less toxic and more human.
They want to step up their voice recognition game it sounds like
How much is that in crypto?
Hey dude, tell me your story!
Local police have historically been made up of power-hungry people though, and it has lead to much suffering through the history of the US. "A People's History of the United States" contains a lot of historical evidence of this.
Would it be better if someone blew up a school instead?
Extremism is the greater underlying issue that needs to be addressed. Without people thinking they need to shoot up a school because they were bullied or because it's "what God wants" guns wouldn't even be a talking point.
Depends on the state. Some states it is nearly impossible to get a gun, and in others you just need to be old enough. There certainly are things that need to change, but I'm also against blanket bans and regulations that specifically target lower income people.
You should read the book "A People's History of the United States". The government isn't there for you, it's there to protect the interests of industry. Time and time again the government has turned against its own citizens because they didn't agree with the government.
The purpose of the second amendment is to ensure that the masses have the ability to defend themselves from a tyrannical government, but it also inadvertently plays a huge role in people's ability to defend themselves and others from those who mean to cause serious harm.
A gun is the only thing that levels the field; by matter how small or weak you are, guns allow you to defend yourself against the biggest, strongest person, or several people. There just isn't anything else like that.
While I agree that mental health is the main factor that is being ignored, I disagree with the banning of firearms for everyone. You wouldn't ban rope if hangings were the top method of suicide, would you?
Mass shootings are relatively modern thing, so we need to look into the root causes. Radicalism is becoming a more and more prominent issue. People need to be taught how to see things from different perspectives and how to think critically. Without this people will just use different methods for causing mass destruction in the absence of guns.
Can you provide some resources for your claims?
