Central Maine Medical Center said staff were “reacting to a mass casualty, mass shooter event” and were coordinating with area hospitals to take in patients.
While your argument is sound it doesn’t dissuade from the point the preceding argument was trying to make. Which maybe you missed, or maybe you just like to debate? Guns as they are now in this country are a big fucking problem. Anomalies are just as bad, and likely preventable, as any other thing with a higher number on some chart. Many might argue >0 is a number to large when it comes to loss of life.
Except that they’re asserting they aren’t exactly what they are, a statistical anomoly, and they are attempting to fear tactic people into “zomg half?!”
Good luck getting the 600,000,000 guns out of civilian hands who don’t want to give them up with no registry to know who/where they are, and the trillions of rnds of ammo stockpiled with them, lmk how that works out for you (though since it would involve killing a lot of people, with guns, for the crime of wanting to retain their legally purchased property that happens to also be guns, I suspect I’ll already be aware.)
I agreed with your factual correction. I’m not sure why you’re coming at me so hot.
I will maintain that while their facts may have been incorrect the intent isn’t what you seem to want it to be. Of course the op of the reply we’re replying to is the only one who can say.
Also, yeah, you’re right no systemic change has ever been successful ever so why try. /S
