      1/ America just hit a grim milestone. Today’s Santa Fe High School shooting was at least the 100th mass shooting in the US since 1982. We know that because we’ve been counting. See for yourself: http://bit.ly/2LbfJsY pic.twitter.com/XYDYiK6Tjr

      2/ Gun violence has become so common that Santa Fe student Paige Curry said about today’s shooting: “It’s been happening everywhere. I’ve always kind of felt like eventually, it was going to happen here too.” http://bit.ly/2wSrSjl pic.twitter.com/ZdbYFOXPZV

      7/ Here’s what the NRA doesn’t want you to know: The average cost to taxpayers for a single gun homicide in America is nearly $400,000. And we pay for 32 of them every single day. http://bit.ly/2Ex7k3p pic.twitter.com/hSAMe0tfkd
