Did you know that the U.S. has averaged more than one and a half mass shootings a day so far this year? I know that sounds crazy, but it is true. Monday will be the 200th day of the year, and
there have been 327 mass shootings up to this point in 2021. And actually the information on Wikipedia does not include all of the most recent mass shootings, and so the true number is actually a little higher. But you can’t really blame Wikipedia, because it is extremely difficult to keep up with all of the mass shootings that are happening these days. In fact, each one barely even makes a blip in the news before the next one happens. We have become a nation that is filled with violence from one end to the other, and many believe that what we have experienced so far

Not since the days of Marion Berry have we seen such extreme violence in the nation’s capital.

Mass shootings are becoming increasingly common in other large cities as well. For example, Portland is rapidly becoming one of America’s most violent cities, and over the weekend there was a tragic mass shooting in the city

Portland was once such a beautiful place.
What in the world has happened to that city?
Of course Portland still has a long way to go before it gets as bad as Chicago.
On Saturday night, there was a mass shooting in Chicago that resulted in
being hit…
It should break all of our hearts when we hear of innocent young children getting shot.
In the old days, criminals had higher standards than this. In most cases, they would at least wait until there were no children present to start shooting at their enemies.
But these days, hearts are so cold that people will start shooting whether children are around or not.
In fact, some gang members are so twisted that they actually relish the thought of taking down the children of their rivals.
At this point, I don’t know why anyone would still want to live in Chicago, because a drive by shooting could literally occur at any moment. Here is an example that happened
…
And that wasn’t even the first mass shooting in the city that day. A few hours earlier, a shooter gunned down

Once upon a time, a mass shooting like that would make headlines all across America.
But these days they are so common that each one barely gets noticed.
In order to make headlines these days, a mass shooting has to have an unusual element to it. If the shooting that just happened in D.C. had not stopped a baseball game, it probably wouldn’t have gotten much notice at all.
If we are seeing this much violence now, what will this country look like once economic conditions become extremely harsh for an extended period of time?
The fabric of our society is literally being ripped to shreds all around us, and we are headed for a very, very painful future.
