It is February 14th and we ( the US ) have already had 67 " mass shootings " this year ! It is painfully obvious and has been for a long time that not everyone is a responsible gun owner . What we do or don't do as a nation to attempt to make the situation better will be interesting .
I am a responsible gun owner and am smart enough to know that as long as guns are available you will NEVER be able to stop ALL shootings . But how do we get better ? If we as a nation set a goal to reduce mass shootings by 50% is that achievable ?
In my opinion as a nation we can't keep sending our children to school to be slaughtered . It doesn't matter if it's first grade or college . The toll this takes on society is high . I am NOT suggesting in any way that this is a single government parties issue . This is a society issue when innocent lives are taken .
I really hope the answer isn't there's nothing we can do and live with it ( or die from it ) .
