It’s good to separate this celebratory killings, or professional killings, or accidental killings, or the many other types of killings with firearms in america. I’m not sure why, but it seems important.
Because if you separate them out, it makes it look less bad.
I mean still awful, but less bad.
It's so everyone else can see how much higher our score is in any given category.
Advanced countries don't carry guns all the time.
Just one country has this problem....
Canada's Shootings Rise 869% As American Guns Flood In
Canada Risks Following the Path of the U.S. on Gun Violence
I feel like the US has been a bad influence, but I did learn more about Canadian politics, so thank you for the link
LMAO those are rookie numbers. Not even comparable

Could that headline have less information?
"Sources say the shooting was related to someone wanting to hurt someone else. Bullets were possibly fired in anger. Blood may have come out of one or more wounds."
In the US we need to differentiate between the Taxi Driver/Columbine variety from the "why I oughtta" variety.
The bullets do not differentiate.
The people that got hurt & even died from getting trampled as people shoved to get away from the active mass shooting event did not differentiate either.
And it's so stupid. As if the reason for a mass shooting matters.
Do we, though? Neither of them should have access to guns.
Allegedly.
@Wilshire Americans seem to be relatively unpurturbed by these incidents. They are a familiar part of US culture now.
I feel like I'm one of the only ones who still is. Every time I read one of these stories I feel horrible. And I read them every day.
Many, many of us are. The popular “America bad” narrative certainly makes it feel like you’re alone but you are definitely not.
@FlyingSquid In the not too distant future, being shot dead will be as common as catching a cold in the US.
I mean... yeah - they happen literally every single day so...
The argument: “What do you mean guns shouldn’t be a part of the American identity?!”
USA is the least safe of highly developed economies.
They need to hurry up and charge the individuals responsible. What's taking so long?
It hasn’t even been 24 hours…
Probably over their shitty parking.
