This is not the record any country would want to be setting, but #America has gone past its own record of 36 #massshootings in a year to register 38 were four or more people were killed by gunfire.
From abroad it is just mystifying why a country with this record would be so resistant to #guncrontrol, but then again the #NRA is highly effective.
As the NRA often says, guns don't kill people, people kill people;
but limiting their access to guns would certainly help whatever the NRA believes!
