DOES NPR NOT READ NPR WHEN IT COMES TO GUN VIOLENCE?
Assuming that that second number NPR quotes is accurate: the ‘psychic toll of gun violence’ apparently is worst among people who can’t understand why gun homicide rates keep going down, ‘despite’ the fact that the Left can’t get gun control laws passed. This is not a new problem for the gun control crowd: they’ve been waiting to see gun violence rates rise ever since the ‘assault weapons’ ban expired. Waiting and waiting and waiting.
Hey, that narrative won’t shape itself.
