We just don't get what a senseless mass shooting has to do with any of the other data he's talking about 
In the past 48hrs, the USA horrifically lost 34 people to mass shootings. On average, across any 48hrs, we also lose… 500 to Medical errors 300 to the Flu 250 to Suicide 200 to Car Accidents 40 to Homicide via Handgun Often our emotions respond more to spectacle than to data.

We're working to prevent medical errors. We're working to prevent the flu. We're working to prevent suicide. We're working to prevent car accident. We're doing fuck all about mass shootings. Spot the difference, Neil.

Making a didactic if factually accurate point does not always equate to intelligent or productive discourse. And this was neither inteligent nor productive. Disappointed to read this from you.

The difference is that mass shootings have never inspired a single effective action to ensure that they never happen again. The equivalent would be if nobody worked on flu vaccines, or effective treatment, despite people needlessly dying from it.

Medical errors: staff can be suspended, fired, have their licenses to practice medicine revoked. Patients or their families can sue the hospital. Staff can be re-trained, if appropriate, or punished. Policies can be made to prevent it happening again (see Harold Shipman case).

Since you’re talking about data, how about this fact. More people were murdered in El Paso and Dayton yesterday than are killed by guns in Japan in an entire year. Do you know why?
