To be frank drug transports make up a large dimension for violence and shootings- basically people fighting for turf it’s a big problem in places like Mexico and Brazil and many innocent people get interwoven in it- like innocent families that have to pay money towards drug leaders to “protect” them or else they face threats and there lives- and fathers who get into the business to make money which isn’t even much I don’t support drugs because it links to so many lives and there murders I don’t think any substance, powder or plant is worth so many deaths

And yes people die over weed- even if it isn’t fought as much as stuff like cocaine or ketamine I just can’t behind someone’s blood being spilled over something

Drug cartels and everything and don’t get me started on the wars in the Middle East- it’s honestly disheartening

Most shootings though are mostly drug related- though for school shootings it is more correlated with teens with mental illnesses/disorders that go untreated or being subject to bullying or being raised around horrible influences
