based on known statistics about these incidents of high profile gun violence.

Right wing crazies and terrorists have been keeping everyone hostage for a long time in America. And with the rise of the Rump regime, it's no surprise that it's a whole lot worse.

Google: "High-profile gun violence in the US is marked by frequent mass shootings that have devastated communities nationwide. The rate of mass shootings and gun deaths has increased significantly since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, with firearms surpassing car accidents as the leading cause of death for children and adolescents."
