Mass Shootings

Summary:

In October we experienced the worst mass shooting in American History and just 34 days after we experienced one of the worst mass shootings in Texas history. Bill O'Reilly later commented that this was the price of freedom. Mel Robbins later went on and explained that Americans only care about mass shootings for 2 days or when someone they know is involved.

Analysis:

Robbins is right. The way we are "concerned" and "making a difference" is by posting about it on their social media and then forgetting about it in the next hour. Our current president says that gun control isn't a problem and that the real problem is mental health.  But what if we revised our freedom to bare arms and made it stricter. Would there still be a massacre every day because technically a massacre is when a shooter kills more than 4 more people at a time. Lets actually take a stand against the freedom we have with guns. Lets not wait until its one of our own that pays the consequence.
