American Exceptionalism – Mass Shootings have Doubled in America

Here is information you probably already know just from living in our gun crazed culture in America. Over the last 7 years “Active Shooter” incidents have doubled. This according to a recent FBI report.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation analyzed 160 “active shooter” incidents from 2000 through 2013 to look for common elements that might guide law enforcement officers in preventing the shootings or responding more effectively.

The study found an average of six incidents per year from 2000 through 2006. The number rose to 16 incidents annually in the past seven years.

The 160 incidents studied began with the Dec. 26, 2000, shooting at Edgewater Technology in Wakefield, Mass., when Michael McDermott, 42, armed with several weapons, shot seven of his co-workers to death. Police found him sitting in a conference room. Researchers also examined the shootings at Case Western Reserve University, ConAgra, Red Lake High School, Fort Hood, Virginia Tech, the U.S. Holocaust Museum and Sandy Hook Elementary School, among others.

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
