San Bernardino, California shooting
A Souther California couple shot 14 people to death on Wednesday, December 2, in San Bernardino, California. The couple went into the husband's holiday party and shot his coworkers. The FBI is treated the attack as an 'act of terrorism' as said in the CNN article. David Bowdich, an assistant FBI director, said there there was ,"evidence of extreme planning." Tashfeen Malik and Syed Rizwan Farook injured 21 and killed 14 during Wednesday's attack. Motives are still unclear.
This story just show how easy it has become to get your hands on a gun and conduct mass shootings. Obviously gun laws is a current problem going on in our society, but it has BEEN a problem for longer than most would believe. The sooner our authorities realize the dangers in letting every day people own guns is not safe, the sooner we may see things change. They could change for the better or the worse, only time and effort will tell.

  1. I do believe these mass shootings are escalating especially recently which is very alarming. Not sure what all we are trying to do about this issue right now but this needs more attention.

  2. It would be nice for people to start taking action, this is one of those things that will take a while to make any progress on.
