America and their gun laws

Sadly it could be any number of reasons. I hope it's that simple and not something more sinister from a global perspective

Been that way for years. And this sort of mass killing will continue ad infinitum.

More Americans have been killed in gun related incidents since 1968 than have been killed in all the wars they have ever been involved in.
Mental.

Really? That seems a massive number when you take into account WW2, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq etc. How many have actually been killed in the US in homeland shootings. Can't get my head round that. Perhaps I should see this a bone being dangled

63 % of the figure are suicides , still an alarming number though.

I am sure I read somewhere that there had been another shooting earlier this week in America with around 6 dead. How many people need to be killed before the media highlight it more.

They won't. These people died because they weren't armed and were unable to defend themselves don't ya know.

That's right something to do with the constitution and the right to bear arms
