I had to unsubscribe from r/news when stories of shootings started to pop up daily. Not saying that this shouldn’t be posted here, just highlighting how depressing the news coming out of the US have become. Every day the same story, the same statements, the same news cycles, the same comments and no end in sight.

Hope the injured victims survive and the US finally finds a common ground again. They need it desperately.

Wish the government would do something. I feel like we are heading towards the Escape from New York reality.

Its horrible how things like this happen constantly here in the US, and the thing that people up top focus on is stupid stuff like revoking abortion laws
