58 people dead is a horrible thing, but pales in comparison to the 30,000 dead annually from gunshots in the US every year. But when you take out the five worst cities in America, Chicago, etc, that number drops dramatically. So dramatically, in fact, that the USA drops to the 4th lowest country in the world for gun deaths.

Also dramatically is the fact that these five cities that totally skew the statistics are completely controlled by the democrats. Every time democrats/liberals get control, people die.

It's the democrats who are at fault. They should be asking for forgiveness.

STOP....why the hell are you posting BS numbers?

Actual numbers are an order of magnitude lower.

According to the FBI, in 2012, there were 8,855 total firearm-related homicides in the US, with 6,371 of those attributed to handguns. 61% of all gun-related deaths in the U.S. are suicides

The more current numbers are not that different....leave it up to you to do the work, maybe it will linger in memory better.

When you take out suicides, it is more than cut in half.
