Another mass shooting today. 5 dead in a Tulsa, OK medical facility. The increasing regularity of these events is truly disturbing.

They should really try putting up a sign that says firearms are not allowed on the premise.

Anybody who has been paying attention to what has been happening in this country shouldn't be shocked. We're becoming a moral-less society, increasingly mentally unhealthy & unstable, and it's election season (for those who believe there is no such thing as coincidence).

When texting and driving was at its peak, they didn't ban cars or cell phones. They targeted the person behind the wheel who controlled the car and the phone. The lack of consistency when it comes to "shootings" is why it's hard to even consider taking anti-gun arguments seriously.
