There were seven cops there and they still didn’t catch the shooter? Wtf
The only logical solution is even more guns.
If the victim had 10 guns on them, there would have been a chance that the bullet would hit one of their guns instead. Therefore more guns would have saved the victim's life.
Did anyone test how good guns are at stopping bullets?
US society has made a collective decision concerning freedom and gun ownership and this is the outcome they'll have to (continue to) live with.
I think most of society wants some protections in place. It's the politicians (and Supreme Court justices if you somehow think they aren't politicians still) that keep us from getting that. They would risk too much going against the "no safety precautions for firearms" groups, so they just don't.
