We need more thoughts and prayers obviously because the problem has not been solved and that's all that is being done, so more thoughts and prayers are in order. |

Oh. I missed the wrong target. Answering the right poster that is.Just more innocent blood on the hands of the NRA and their fruit loop followers. :-(When so Americans in the US learn that guns are lethal weapons that only appointed and trusted people are allowed to use them perhaps? |

City Of Chicago Working Around Clock To Clear 18 Inches Of Bullet Casings From Streets With cartridge accumulations reaching two feet or more in some areas, experts say Chicago is on track for the highest annual ammunition-depth total on record. https://www.theonion.com/city-of-chicago-working-around-clock-to-clear-18-inches-1819579485?utm_content=Main&utm_source=Facebook&utm_campaign=SF&utm_medium=SocialMarketing&fbclid=IwAR0ylkYCuxsZY5WUS_4RO_Le1KXfHIWYngg31VdO5igdLo4QZhEn9HmMBvQ "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

Isn't just amazing how many fools that The Onion traps. Do 18 Inches of Bullet Casings Cover Chicago Streets? This article is a work of satire and does not describe a real event. The Onion is a well-known purveyor of satirical stories, but some people, unfamiliar with the site, mistook it for a genuine news item. However, it contains little truth. While there is an issue of violent crime in Chicago, the city does not employ “ammunition removal vehicles†to clear the streets of bullet casings.ROFLMFAO!!!!! |

Any fool would know that isn't Chicago, try West Baltimore, Maryland. And they have deeper accumulations than Chicago! |

Maybe some think that Al Capone and his mob are still alive and doing well in Chicago with their Tommy guns. :-p |

Seems that there are a lot of gullible muppets there... ...sadly, those muppets have access to weapons. The best thing that these muppets fail to realise is that they "out" themselves every time giving everyone else a chuckle a day... ...next best thing to an apple. :-) |

Simple: Note that we already have 'weapons-free' zones: The Christmas tree made of knives, bullets and cigarette lighters ... And if you are feeling festive - a Christmas tree - might well be twinkling away in your living room or hallway. But we bet the decorations hanging from it don't include knives, cigarette lighters and bullets. ... alternative festive tree - made entirely of items confiscated from passengers... One to be extended to other public places? All in our only one world, Martin See new freedom: Mageia Linux Take a look for yourself: Linux Format The Future is what We all make IT (GPLv3) |

Clearly we need to pray for more guns, that is the solution. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/atlanta-shooting-cumberland-mall-gunfire-police-reports-a9247271.html A shooting erupted at the Cumberland Mall in Atlanta on Saturday, police said, with holiday shoppers fleeing and ducking under tables as social media users posted videos of the suspected gunman inside the food court. |

The FSB said the shooting occurred at a building directly behind its headquarters on Lubyanka Square.The incident took place on the day commemorating Russia's day of the security services (FSB) and after President Vladimir Putin finished his annual press conference, although there's no official confirmation that the shooting may be connected to any of the events. |

In other parts of the world other than the 'guns-R-us' USA: New Zealand is destroying military-style guns after ban Police in New Zealand are destroying military-style guns and rifles... it becomes illegal to carry or possess them. The ban comes after the Christchurch mosque shootings, in which 51 people were killed in March.

In other parts of the world other than the 'guns-R-us' USA: I was just reading that, and thinking how many firearms would be handed in if the US did the same at the same ratio of firearms:population. So I did the sums. NZ arms handed in * Population of US ÷ Population of NZ = US arms handed in 56,000 * 330,015,827 ÷ 4,802,203 = 3,848,418 The number of "modern sporting rifles" in the US is estimated to be between 15 and 20 million. So only 20% to 25% would be taken out of circulation. |
