To be fair, 432 shootings in a country of 340,000,000 isn’t THAT crazy, relatively speaking, especially considering the existence of the 2nd Amendment, and that last I heard, there are more guns in the US than people.
I don’t like guns either, just trying to be objective about it. People like to talk about the US like we’re all constantly gunning each other down, but the reality is that it’s quite rare.
Even moreso if you don’t count stuff like gang hits, which this was.

If you plot it over the last 20 years it looks a lot like a Verizon coverage map. Coincidence?
Real talk, nationwide maps like that are useless. They’re just the the population map.

You are correct, the US needs to increase speed limits to even things out again.
Most countries don’t have more than one shooting a day.
Most countries don’t have 340,000,000 people, either.

Mocking me for simply pointing out that ratios give better perspective than raw numbers is only making you look like a moron, just so you know.
