    Default Time for more conservative "prayers and condolences,"

    Multiple people reported shot in 'active shooter' situation near Mercy Hospital

    https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/...119-story.html

    Mass shootings are as American as apple pie, Americans have even become desensitized, now we got a hospital to add to schools, shopping malls, concerts, day care centers, churches, nightclubs, movie theaters, etc., etc.

    And conservatives will continue to tell us more guns make us safer

    "truthie" is always a treat, usually wrong, but still a trip

    Removing the plane crash you threw in, the total, which encompasses 26 years, totals to approximately 294 French killed, while in the US, in 2018 alone, 328 Americans have been killed in 307 shootings, and the year isn't even over yet.
    http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...ng/1928574002/

    So obviously whatever France is doing is a hell'va lot better than the US's "prayers and condolences" approach

    And before you or some other gun hugger jumps in with the population "arguement," France works out to approximately 1.6 gun homicides per 100,000 Frenchmen, where as in the US, 5.35 Americans are killed by guns for every 100,000, so it appears those French gun laws are effective compared to our benign and ignore approach
    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List..._homicide_rate

    Time for another "truthie" corny copy and paste

    Can't recall any mass shootings at a hospital yet can you?

    As I've explained umpteen times, Chicago has troubles with guns because it is surrounded by loose gun states, Indiana is only a twenty minute car ride away
