Fewer mass shootings in year marred by pandemic, civil unrest
Even though the year 2020 was marked by a deadly pandemic, civil unrest and political and economic turmoil, there was one good news which emerged from this year: 2020 saw the fewest mass shootings which took place in the public, in a decade. This could be because most people stayed indoors due to lockdowns which were put in place to contain the spread of the coronavirus.
Amazingly and gun and ammo sales are at an all time high. There are none on the shelf. There goes that narrative.
This maybe one argument your local authoritarian will use to continue the lockdown after COVID.
People are being forced to stay away from one another... Makes sense that there would be less interpersonal violence. Suicide rates however are skyrocketing. https://www.dailysignal.com/2020/09/29/covid-19-linked-to-rising-suicide-rates-among-teens/
Wow really! Who would have guessed. Idiots.
I see someone hasn't been to Chicago lately.
But a massive increase in poverty, depression, domestic abuse, drug/alcohol abuse, suicides just to name a few things. Don't be fooled there is no silver lining to being controlled by your government.
