Gun Reform, Crime Rate, and Homicide Data
As of today’s date, there have been 102 mass shootings in the United States just this year, and it’s only March. The recent horrific mass shootings in both Atlanta and Boulder have again brought up the discussion advocating for gun reforms. A once in a century pandemic cannot be the only thing that slows mass shootings in this country. In many ways, our lives are starting to feel normal again after a long, difficult year filled with so much loss. Sadly, the return to mass shootings is also a sign of a return to “normal” in the United States.
