I'd be willing to bet if there was robust mental healthcare/social work services in the US it would cut down on homicides as well, but I think I read statistically most gun deaths in the US are suicide so it would help regardless

Also I'd love if you could point out a historical example of voting ousting a fascist? Historically, the only thing that stops fascism is unyielding force
