US Gun Violence Rates Exceed European Levels

WBUR Boston Boston 49d49d Impact 8
A commentator on WBUR Boston suggested that the US President's statement, 'I understand life, we live in a crazy world,' might reflect a normalization of gun violence. The commentator noted that the President's immediate thought after an incident was about the trauma children experience. The United States experiences gun violence at rates 25 times higher than European Union countries and significantly higher than Canada. Daily, over 100 people are killed and more than 300 are shot across the country. This situation is described as not normal globally, despite being perceived as such within the US. This disparity was discussed in the context of political rhetoric and public perception. US universities have been criticized for offering 'Mickey Mouse' courses. The criticism suggests a low academic standard.
