Perhaps i should have been posting more. There has been lots of developments in relation to gun control. (and at some point i'll update everyone...but i'd do that when i'm not on holidays) There has been little on the front of actual shootings.
Today, we had a shooting in Tennessee.
The number of shooting deaths in the USA is rising. It seems that almost every week there is another shooting. This site is keeping track of all the shootings that make headline news in Australia. The victims of gun violence should not be forgotten.
