Please note the following:

* All chatrooms are linked together. If you join one room your messages will be copied to the other platforms.

* Matrix is an open source and potentially distributed chat protocol. The matrix room listed is hosted on matrix.org, a somewhat centralized hub for a lot of currently public rooms. Though the protocol itself is free, libre and open source, the deployment of the protocol resembles a centralized service. This may be fixed in the future with the deployment of independent servers.

* Be aware that both Telegram and Discord are centralized proprietary platforms and do not necessarily protect your rights nor privacy while simultaneously giving power to corporations.

There is nothing that can be done. When your country is located next to gun world, expect them to always illegally cross the border.

You can have a 100% gun ban in the country....and there will be another shooting within 30 days.

Calling for the ban on guns, is like saying ban drugs. Embracing it and regulating it (like they do) is about the best were all going to get, but for the government that cause fear that long rifles are the issue is just stupid logic to get people on board with make work projects that will again, not help.
