Massacre Repeat Massacre Repeat Massacre Repeat
Las Vegas, Orlando, San Bernardino, Washington, DC’s Navy Yard, Sandyhook, Aurora, Tucson…. Since the beginning of the 21st century, there have been 60 mass shootings and murder sprees in the United States. Over 500 people have died by domestic gun terrorist attacks. And, after each one, gun rights advocates stand behind the 2nd Amendment while others call for stricter gun laws followed by flags at half-staff, moments of silence, and thoughts and prayers.
Then we repeat the process at the next massacre.
From 2000–2015 over 10,000 Americans were accidentally killed by guns. And, still nothing.
As long as our Senators and Representatives are more interested in their re-elections than American lives, the NRA, which contributes millions of dollars to their campaign coffers, will continue to exert undue influence and nothing will happen. We will repeat this pattern ad nauseam.
