The piece shoots itself in the head with a .50 browning in the first sentence. Sadly, if there were ever a time when The American Thinker had more fact checkers than The New York Times, it is long gone.
There have ALWAY been mass shootings now and then.
The overall premise dies before being born, aborted by the stupid and indefensible opening sentence.
Whoa, tough crowd here tonight, LOL.
You may well be right, but I came of age in the 1950s and I cannot recall any mass shootings during that time. Maybe there were and my memory is fauly. The first one I can recall occurring was in the early 1960s, that of the guy in Texas who placed himself in a college tower and randomly shot people with a rifle until the police shot him dead.
