But gun control doesn't work... "Mass shootings" are statistically negligible; they're just sensational. It's like how we have a huge thing about children dying from being left in hot cars: the number of incidents was something like ~40 per year. People get emotional because "won't somebody please think of the children?!" But it's really a non-issue due to its infrequency. --- Snipers don't shoot at paper, they shoot watermelons. https://imgur.com/jo511lG <cite>deupd_u posted [p:904235735] in Keep seein...
