Amy Sullivan is confused, from New Republic:
Earlier this morning, a man with a gun opened fire outside the Empire State Building in busy downtown Manhattan. Last night, 19 people were shot across the city of Chicago in seven different incidents. Thirteen of those victims were shot within one 30-minute period. A man walked into the Washington, DC building that houses the Family Research Council last week and shot a security guard. At the beginning of this month, a white supremacist shot and killed six people at a Sikh temple in Wisconsin, wounding four others. And we are barely one month removed from the horrific mass shooting that killed twelve and wounded a sickening 58 other people in a movie theater in Aurora, CO.
Ms Sullivan named shootings in four cities, New York, Chicago, the District of Columbia and Aurora, Colorado. The first three have the most restrictive gun control laws in the nation. Further the Aurora was in a free-fire zone, the so-called “gun-free safety zone.” Hint to Ms Sullivan, Americans do not support gun control because it does not work.
