Widespread gun violence is not a recent phenomena in America. It has been going on in the ghettos and barrios of America since the late 70s. In Los Angeles, for the longest time the annual murder rate was quite a bit higher than the number of days in the year, and half of that was gang related. Once there was a family of 5 who was murdered all at once in East L.A., and it was headline news for one night only. When it happens in the suburbs to a massive number of people, it makes the news like it does mostly because of the number of dead but also because they ‘never thought it could happen here’. Some people blame guns themselves and want them banned, others blame culture, environment, or poverty and whatnot; I myself believe it is all of the above.
