    1st, do 3 things:

    1. get the evidence, and make it indellibly-obvious.

    Toddlers killed by guns, 3-5yo killed, do every age-group, and make it obvious.

    Ttbomk, that isn’t possible, in the US, because the gun cult ( not gun lobby: when destruction-of-lives-of-children is irrelevant in protecting guns’ dominion, it’s a cult ) got collecting-statistics blocked, years/decades ago.

    1. discover the right questions.

    2. Keep rural & city segregated, as the issues are not identical.

    Fools pretend that cities & rural are identical contexts, and they absolutely are not.

    Rural need to be able to deal with rabid wildlife, sometimes.

    A friend told me that a rabid fox tried killing the tractor he was operating for awhile. The farmer who’d hired him handed him a gun & showed him how to use it to kill such a thing.

    Once you’ve got that set of things going, then you begin working up an Issue Diagram for the issue, based on actual information, not on ideology/prejudice.
