The U.S. Still Averages More Than A Mass Shooting For Every Day Of The Year

 

There are two mass shootings in the news. One was at Brown University in Rhode Island and the other was in Australia. Both were deplorable, and neither should have happened. But the shooting in Australia was a rare occurrence because they have reasonable gun laws. The U.S. mass shooting wasn't rare at all. The U.S. is still averaging more than one mass shooting for every day of the year. That's not acceptable, but it will continue as long as Republicans have enough power in Congress to block any attempt to pass reasonable and constitutional gun laws.
