Going to the US or living there is scary. At least in some countries like in Mexico, an innocent my get hit accidentally by gangs wars. In the US the bullets seems to be directly for the innocent people.
Literally. Walmart, a block party, a club, TOO MANY SCHOOLS TO COUNT, a concert, etc, etc. It never seems to end, and yet we do nothing.
It really isn't. You have to keep in mind the country is huge and shootings are done of the few things which makes international news. I live in Maryland and the only time I've felt unsafe going to Baltimore is getting lost at 11pm after a show
I don't think you realize how desensitized we've become. Within the past year a stray bullet went through a shop window, and a few non-fatal shootings occured. Nothing crazy.
Only for all my friends and family abroad it absolutely is crazy. One shooting is one too many.
Meh, I grew up next to some favelas, and that level of violence is another level entirely, it's just not covered as intently. People get kidnapped, families of rival gangs are targeted, not to mention the extortion.
That being said, the US has no fucking excuse. Central and South American countries suffering from massive gangs and civil wars, they have a good reason for having so many gun deaths.
