From DKos: BBC treats latest mass shootings as "just another day in America"
BBC on latest mass shootings: "Just another day in the United States of America"
The San Bernardino shooting is the 355th mass shooting this year, according to a mass shooting tracker maintained by the Guns Are Cool subreddit. The Reddit tracker defines mass shootings as incidents in which four or more people, including the gunman, are killed or injured by gunfire.
America's gun culture has made us a macabre laughing stock overseas. When one listens to the BBC journalist reporting the mass shooting in San Bernardino, justifiable belittling of our culture for allowing the NRA to rule comes to mind.
One hopes that Americans get tired of the carnage. One hopes that politicians are punished for murder by neglect, coddling, and deception.
