    I think the article is more about the massive difference in gun related deaths per capita … but I agree with you JeanMarie! ❤️

        Are you in America if so it is very very scary! Here in the UK the most recent data suggests that there were 30 homicides committed by shooting in the year ending 31 March 2020 – 4% of all homicides. Of these 30 victims, 20% were female and 80% were male. I don’t have more statistics to hand but it is awful .

        Awful. I hope the gun cancer isn’t spreading.

      Yes, in the USA Willow. What’s even scarier is our governments decision to turn a blind eye to the needs, wants and demands of the majority; instead, catering to the desires and demands of those holding power in money. 😑
