Laws should punish wrongdoing. Regulations that seek to stop all wrongdoing place burdens on law abiding citizens and businesses that were never going to harm anyone. We can't stop all wrong upfront, and the costs of attempting to do so are substantial.
"Man I love Go, it's so simple, plenty fast, really easy to pick up, read, and write. I really love that it doesn't have dozens of esoteric features for my colleagues to big brain into the codebase"
"Oh yeah? Well Go sucks, it doesn't have dozens of esoteric features for me to big brain into the codebase"
"Of 267 incidents this year classified as mass shootings by the Gun Violence Archive, nearly all can be tied to gang beefs, neighborhood arguments, robberies or domestic incidents that spiraled out of control.
Indiscriminate slaughter by a lone gunman blasting away at a store, school or some other public place is rare, according to a Washington Times analysis of the archive’s data, accounting for less than 4% of the total."
Apparently we need to say it a little louder. We have multiple threads in this comment section of people trying to figure out how the US can have > 500 "mass shootings" a year and do nothing.
I won't be satisfied until we change the definition. Including gang violence from people with multiple felonies is not useful to the conversation.
You've arrived at something important intuitively.
The majority of "mass shootings" are gang related. Just from gang members with many prior felony's shooting each other (and maybe innocents getting hit in the process sometimes)
I'm on the hook for $128k for a no complications birth and 5 days my newborn had to be on a CPAP machine after blue cross denied the claim. I picked the plan only after confirming all our providers were in network, but failed to check if the building where the delivery was occurring was in network.
The plan at this point is to just ignore it and hope it goes away, since they can't put it on your credit anymore.
