I've had many fans reach out and ask "Cyrus, why does America have so many mass shootings? The answer is actually quite simple but let's break it down in a thread explaining why mass shootings will NEVER stop in 🇺🇸:
The first thing we need to address is the mass shootings are almost always the result of mental health problems. Mental health problems have skyrocketed around the world, no country is immune from this, whether it's USA, China, or any other country in the 🌎
I'm an American who lived abroad for 15 years in both China and Canada. In China, private gun ownership doesn't exist therefore mass shootings doesn't exist. In Canada, gun laws are extremely strict and gun sales controlled by government therefore mass shootings doesn't exist. 👇 
But in America our culture is to fight for our freedom! Protect yourself! and embrace the 2nd amendment (the right to bare arms) For nearly 50% of US citizens they believe guns are NOT the problem. They believe that MORE guns would be the solution. 🤯
But the US is the ONLY country in the world with this mass shooting epidemic for one simple reason. We are the only country in the world that makes guns so accessible, and therefore people with mental issues have easy access to guns.
We need #GunControlNow in America but this topic is too controversial. Remember the USA is one of the most polarized nations in the world. Our nation is split 50/50 on most major issues (gun control, abortion rights, gay marriage, etc...)
In conclusion, there is no easy way to fix mental health issues and as long as people with mental health issues have a pathway to purchase firearms there will be no end to this epidemic in the future. This is the reality of gun culture and life in America.
