Lol got downvoted for reminding everyone that Coos County exists. Perfect.

Not sure if it's guns rights activists who are mad I'm bringing up a mass shooter in our state. They should be glad. We have one of the weakest gun laws in the country and only had 1 spree shooting.

Maybe it's anti guns activists who are mad that is the case. They should look up why we had almost none with our laws and see if it can apply to other states.

We're on a record pace for homicides by guns. The previous record was 29. I'm not actually sure where we are today. I know it was 25 a few months ago.

Gasp no. Per year and that total not per/1000. We had been avg 19 or so a year for the last 20 years. Just been a bad 2 or 3 years for violence.

It was a legitimate question so no idea why you're being an ass.

As you seem to have downvoted it. Seemed you were being facetious and if I read that wrong then that's on me.

And yeah I'm sick of people getting shot on the street cuz we have no gun laws and we're living through the beginning of the wild wild West. As a gun owner I support gun ownership. But little or no regulation is killing people.
