Map, list, a few details of mass shootings in the US 2022

I was hesitant about posting this. Primarily because I feel much better about being able to possibly reduce a threat if necessary. One of my 1st memories of life was riding with my dad's mother in the seat of a horse drawn wagon while she hunted for roadside rabbits. Later at about seven years old I was shooting squirrels and rabbits for food.

Additionally I've had one relative, a nephew, that was shot in the back by one of three illegal hispanic teenagers. An attractive hispanic female had ' lured ' him to her apartment parking lot where she had two friends waiting to rob him.

After about 10 years of being paralyzed he died of infection as a result of that incident.

The statistics about mass shootings are horrific, but I believe guns are about the only effective deterrent if something happens where you wish you had one. It takes too long for the police to show up, but just a few seconds for the bad guy to kill you.

We spend almost every night now at a friend's lakeside property. I do the caretaking and provide security. Everyday we have trespassers since it is lakefront and a pleasant place to walk or ride an ATV. Our big worry is a ' druggie ' crash house next to the entry gate. One of the guys has seven pitbulls. Sheriff will do nothing unless a crime is commited. If called, it takes about 5 to 20 minutes for them to respond with a return phone call or visit.
