    A story that’s interesting from a gun crime perspective. Stopped by two good guys with guns (but did they accidentally hit the shooter’s child?), and the crime was committed with a gun purchased legally. It’s got elements of both sides of the gun law debate, lol

      Eh, “Good thing we had dangling pianos to drop on the guy who’s been cutting all the cords on our dangling pianos” isn’t quite a strong argument for the pro-dangling pianos side

      What debate? Why can such a thing as a debate exist? You’ve got a conflict of interest between children’s public health and corporate profit and we know which side is winning. Public health can’t be measured in economic terms because we lack a children’s market
