That is not to say you are wrong in the over eating hypothesis...because that IS spot on. But over eating vegetables and fruits is far less damaging than filling up on potato chips, snack foods and all the other stuff that is full of sugar.

So if you say the problem is over eating "bad food", that to me is exactly right

And that gun debate is definitely tricky..your solution to it...to screen all users of vulnerable public places...is costly, time consuming and frankly just confirms someone with the right to carry a gun is actually carrying one. Not saying its not workable...just that it is easy to resist its imposition.





We over eat, and over drink. You can over eat veggies too,and fruit is disguised as good for you food. Orange Juice is just as bad to drink as soda for your sugar. No hypothesis, pure truth. https://www.vox.com/2016/8/31/12368246/obesity-america-2018-charts

A metal detector in public places may cost some money. But arent you complaining about guns?
