And American gun nuts all talking about the Copenhagen mall shooting. Using that to claim that Europe is just as bad.

Somewhere in the back of every American’s mind they knew going to their 4th of July event this year meant that they were at risk of being involved in a mass shooting event. Guaranteed it was going to happen somewhere… but go to it anyway and just hope for the best.

That’s as sad a state of affairs as anyone can imagine for a supposedly free first world country… I’ll await capture / death of the shooter, but won’t be surprised when it’s one of those freedom conspiracy idiots.

Wow Highland Park, if any of you were fans of the John Hughes movies of the 80s you'd automatically recognize it. Ferris Bueller, Home Alone, etc. were all set there.

This is from last year:

At least 150 people across the U.S. were killed by gun violence in more than 400 shootings over the Fourth of July weekend, according to data collated by the Gun Violence Archive, an uptick that puts 2021 on track to continue, and exceed, the violent surge that made 2020 the deadliest year of gun violence in decades.

With how many mass shootings there are in the US, isn't the basically the case for every event you go to on any day?

eventually, everyone in the states would know someone personally who was killed by these mass shootings. but doubt even then it would change anything.

if anything USA has been going backward. Trump effect has made it ok to be stupid.

At this point I feel like mass shootings are part of the American Culture, so it seems fitting that one happened on this day.

Denmark only needs like 400 more of those by the end of the year and they would basically be right!
