Fun fact for people who think is “just the flu”:
According to the CDC, in the four weeks of July 2023 (the weeks of 7/1, 7/8, 7/15/ and 7/22, which was during what many consider a “low” or “safe” period):
1,990 people died of COVID
86 people died of flu
Today in Florida a white supremacist used an AR-15 to kill 3 Black people, because Florida demands even white supremacist terrorists have easy access to firearms—but then forbids any child from learning the history of white supremacists mass murdering Black people
It’s the 238th day of 2023–the 472nd mass shooting, 30th mass murder, & we’ve surpassed 28K gun deaths
We don’t have to live like this. We need federal gun reform. And we need champions in Congress who will relentlessly fight for it
