Bizarre, isn't it? The only place to be safe, because any would-be shooter knows they're all armed and can shoot.

The new thing with masses of wild teens on the streets at the same time, in a designated place, organized on social media, is an interesting phenomena. Watch Chicago this weekend. The kids will manipulate the cops into having a presence where they won't be. If they're clever enough.

I expect the shootings to get way more frequent until it becomes our new war.

Nah. The thing about America is only startling because it's a developed nation and deaths are reported.

Internationally, you don't even make the top 10 per capita.

Excellent video.

The problem you have is so ingrained in culture, nothing will ever change it.

This is 5 years old, but an overwhelming majority of Americans are against banning handguns, so you have no chance of changing things. https://www.economist.com/graphic-detai ... un-control

And in a beautifully ironic piece of thinking, more people now buy guns for protection than ever before: https://news.gallup.com/opinion/gallup/ ... -guns.aspx
