And the ideal number of suicides is 0, and the ideal amount of spyware is 0, etc. All of these are targets, but an ideal doesn't give you further information on how to prioritize
No country has managed to bring the total number of suicides to 0. Which tells you that it’s a harder problem.
But again, practically every country has managed to being the total number of school shootings to 0. Which tells you that it’s not a particularly hard problem.
Many other countries have succeeded at bringing school shootings to zero, providing the fundamental feasibility in principle. That makes the difference.
The difference in America is that Americans really don't want to. By the time Sandy Hook happened, Americans had already long decided as a culture that they were willing to trade the lives of their children to protect their sacred right to keep and bear arms. Hell, many are happy to, as long as the kids aren't theirs.
Incorrect. Some do, many don't, unless of course you're racist and don't consider quite a bit of the developing world worth your notice. Is that the case?
The two largest developing countries in the world are China and India, both accounting for roughly 35% of the world’s population. And they’ve both reduced school shootings to either zero or close to zero.
