I bet that makes Americans feel very proud, patriotic and safe of course.
Some observations.
Strange. It looks like Russia. It behaves like Russia. It has guns like Russia. But has the USA map shape.
There must be a lot of wild and dangerous animals in the US that so many guns are needed.
You'd think that Florida would have been less California and more Texas in this way but nah.
Guns are cheaper than a psychiatrist, that explains a lot.
And a question. So is America such a violent society because it has guns, or does it have guns because it is such a violent society?

Date: 6/12/21 22:43 (UTC)If an adult shoots up a school, is it a school shooting? If a student shoots up a Taco Bell, is it a school shooting? If two gangs get into a fight on school grounds and some of them shoot each other, is it a school shooting? If a student drops a gun on campus and it discharges and nails a passing jogger, is it a school shooting?
