"There is no way to prevent this" says only country where this happens regularly.

If only she had a gun she could have protected herself!

How in the FUCK does that guy get access to guns? Is there literally no check and balances for buying a gun in the states? WTF

The cost of freedom i guess

There is so much that is unfortunate about this. First off, another person dead because of guns. Second, there is so much news and uproar because she was a young white woman. This is undeniable. Third, in looking for statistics on stray bullet incidences, I found that there is no official tracking in the US.

I found a study of 2008 stray bullet incidents, including deaths from combining news reports. In the year, they found 284 of 501 unique reports of different incidences that met criteria injuring 317 ppl (almost one a day). Of these, about 20% died, and most injured were at home, not aware of any gun violence. Suffice to say, each statistic is a person just like her, and their deaths are all needless tragedies brought on by gun culture.

Child in Gunsville, Alabama, dressed as gun holding a gun at a local gun appreciation day parade gets shot in the gun by a group of gun-shooting friends called the "fun guns gun group" who's group motto is "let's gun for fun!". Now is not the time to discuss guns.

Well this is america, you have to expect stray bullets.

This wasn't just a stray bullet. This was a madman who had terrorized people with guns in the past, and was set free because he isn't fit to stand trial, which somehow means he's fit to be free and have guns.

I don't give a fuck about the shooters backstory or why he's messed up in the head, he should never been allowed out in society of he's not fit, yet dangerous.

How sad. What a waste.

America moment

USA! USA! USA!

The only strays found in parks should be dogs. Not freaking bullets!!!! What the heck is a 'stray bullet' anyway, they move in straight lines and can only be set off by someone pulling a trigger.
