I did, did you notice that I spoke of mass shootings, not all gun crime? no, I guess you didn't eh?
"Mass public shootings represent only a small fraction of overall gun violence in the US; but for a country not at war, their frequency and number of victims have been without parallel for decades (Lankford, 2016). While guns have long been a part of US culture (Yamane, 2017), mass public shootings have dramatically increased in the past decades (Smart and Schell, 2021). Most recently, during the COVID-19 pandemic, gun sales have soared (Miller et al., 2021) and gun violence has worsened (Cohen et al., 2021), including mass public shootings (Peña and Jena, 2021).''
now, here's the tip -------------- in the highly unlikely event that I found myself in America - which might be possible if I was in a plane flying over it and we crashed - can't think of any other reason why -
I wouldn't be concerned about a couple of black guys shooting at each other - but, with the number of mass shootings by non blacks in public places (not workplace related) - then, I'd be wanting to wear a bullet proof vest - because it's only a matter of time in the land of hope and glory before some non black nutter shoots at you because, you just happen to be wherever you are
