Current Affairs The " another shooting in America " thread

[LinekersLegs]

Near me this one.


California has, comparative to many other US states, tighter gun laws but they still are not adequate to stop the regular slaughter.

Smith was riding in the passenger seat of a pickup truck on Saturday, according to the Sumner County Sheriff’s Office. A rifle and some hunting gear were in the back seat, along with a dog belonging to the driver of the truck

Investigators say the dog stepped on the rifle, causing it to discharge. Smith was hit in the back.
Responding units arrived within minutes and tried to revive him, but Smith died at the scene.

Sorry to ask, are guns allowed in hospitals or do lawyers have exemption to the law?

I had to check this and it was in Brazil, so I have no idea. Most (all?) US hospitals would have a restriction in place against firearms I would imagine (our local hospital has a restriction). Further, just about all metal is banned from MRI rooms given it's just a giant magnet. So clearly things operate differently in Brazil.

I find it hard to understand how there is even a restriction on firearms in hospitals, it’s almost an alien concept, a bit like saying there’s a restriction on shooting anyone between the hours of 8am an 6pm….dear god what is wrong with you guys…..
