1,052 mass shootings in 1,066 days: this is what America's gun crisis looks like | US news | The Guardian
Given that the definition of a 'mass shooting' is four individuals shot and/or killed by one assailant, I can't help but ask in the face of this statistic:
'How's that 2nd amendment right working out for you Americans these days?'
It looks decidedly like a mixed blessing from this side of the border.

And just how many of the shooters legally obtained their guns? Basically the guardian is saying that because criminals use guns law abiding citizens shouldn't have the right to self defense. That sure makes sense..not.

The change the guns laws. Australian did it, with a conservative Prime Minister, John Howard (http://www.slate.com/blogs/crime/2012/12/16/gun_control_after_connecticut_shooting_could_australia_s_laws_provide_a.html ). I'm afraid the gun lobby in the US and the gun obsession by a large percentage of the population may make that vey difficult in the US.
