Something that's been on my mind all day, so I looked it up.
"Every day [in the US], 93 people die from gun violence:
32 are murdered
58 die from suicide
1 killed unintentionally
1 killed by legal intervention
1 died but was intent unknown
Every day, 222 people are shot and survive:
164 injured in an attack
10 survive a suicide attempt
45 shot unintentionally
3 are shot in a legal intervention
What happened in Vegas happens in this country every day. It's just dispersed, so you don't notice. The US culture of devaluing life - capital punishment and for-profit healthcare, especially, not to mention lack of gun control - makes human life seem disposable to those without the privilege of proper de-programming, nurturing, and basic love and care.
These are my feels. So many sad. Much hurt. Very grieve.
