Do we need a new channel on TV - one dedicated to the daily shootings? It's hard to keep up with them.
Police arrest ‘person of interest’ after 6 people k**led at July 4 parade
Chaos at July Fourth events as fireworks are mistaken for gunshots
As gunfire explodes in Chicago suburb, ‘nowhere is safe’
Don't give them any ideas......
How did it come to this? Nobody is safe anywhere. Just last week near Philly, a man was shot while driving in traffic because he was going too slow! Our grandkids have to grow up with this!

If gang members shoot each other, that's bad enough, but when stray bullets k**l kids in their homes, that's horrible.
Every day, I see more reasons to stay at home.
That’s what you get with a gun in every pocket. Also why I haven’t gone south of the 49th parallel in over 20 years

Don't look, now, Bubba, but it has been this way since the dawn of Man.
It is just publicized and sensationalized more, in these days of instant communication.

As did we.
We just weren't aware of it, as all we got was local news - usually days after the fact.
Now, with modern communications, folks get instant information from all over the place, but still think in terms of it being local.
You are just realizing the extent of evil over a wider geographical area, now.
It's still sad!
But, although violence ebbs and flows, it is no worse than other periods of history.

Nearly every innercity shooting is done by someone who has done it before. That is because of our weak Judicial system and Courts with revolving doors.

Exaggerating a bit, are we?
Britain outlawed guns, so the evil turned to knives.
A thug is a thug is a barbarian and they will always find a way to intimidate or k**l, method be damned.
Do NOT make the mistake of pretending they think like you do.
They don't.
Sad, but true.

But Britain has shut down all the knife-throwing schools, so k*****g has to be "up close and personal."

Which is far more dangerous for the victim!

People in various subcultures and mental illnesses are the problem. How do you fix them??
