This, from the Observer's World in Brief section is shocking (but perhaps not surprising):
'One in 15 Americans (7%) have witnessed a mass shooting & 2% have been injured in one, according to a report from the University of Boulder Colorado. Since 2014, there have been 5,000 mass shootings according to the Gun Violence Archive. Author Prof. David Pyrooz said: 'They reach a substantial portion of the population, with profound physical & psychological consequences'!
A FOURTEEN YEAR OLD BOY shot & killed a police officer sitting in his car in #Newark, NJ.
The question no one seems to be asking:
HOW DID A 14yo KID GET HIS HANDS ON A GUN (AND AMMUNITION?) 
#GunViolence
#SCOTUS appeared skeptical on Tuesday that the Mexican government could legally sue #US #GunManufacturers over claims that they share the blame for the horrific #GunViolence of the drug cartels.

“It is far easier & far more efficient to stop the #crime gun pipeline at its source & to turn off the spigot,” said Jonathan Lowy, president of Global Action on #GunViolence & a longtime litigator against the gun industry who has worked on the case on behalf of #Mexico.
The #GunManufacturers, joined by a slew of gun groups including the #NRA, have argued the lawsuit would undermine gun rights in the #UnitedStates.
The dispute comes before the justices at a time of heightened tension between the 2 countries as the #Trump admin leans on #Mexico to crack down on illegal #immigration & cartel organizations. #Tariffs on imported goods from Mexico are scheduled to go into effect on Tuesday — the same day the justices are set to consider the guns lawsuit.
The case reverses longstanding complaints by #Trump that Mexican cartels have contributed to rising #violence in the #UnitedStates. Instead, #Mexico argues the majority of #guns found at Mexican #crime scenes come from the US. It seeks some $10 billion in damages from #US #GunManufacturers.
Our post in memory of Christian Rodriguez Hernandez, age 17, includes how to help his family: https://bikemonterey.org/in-memory-of-christian-rodriguez-hernandez.html.
Christian was killed Feb 28 while bicycling in the Monterey County city of King City. Media reports state four minors and one adult have been arrested: https://www.ksbw.com/article/teen-bike-killed-king-city-shooting-5-arrested/63992485. For the March 1 KC Police Dept press release (not yet on their website), refer to our post.
Christian is not the first victim of violence while bicycling in our county—e.g., https://bikemonterey.org/in-memory-of-people-murdered-while-biking.html.

2 teens charged with multiple attempted murders in Aurora skating rink 'shootout'
A teenage boy and girl were injured during the Feb. 8 shootout at Skate City.
Almost no perpetrators of last year's ~100 shootings in #Brussels have been caught. For three-quarters of the #shootings, the perpetrators are still at large. Just two people have actually been convicted: https://www.brusselstimes.com/brussels-2/1458054/almost-no-perpetrators-of-last-years-brussels-shootings-have-been-caught #Bruxelles #Brussel #crime #violence #gunmen #gunviolence
Another shooting in Columbia Mall. Howard County, Maryland. One teen dead, another critical.

#Trump plans to appoint #KashPatel, the new #FBI director, as interim head of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives…. The move could come as early as next week.
The Patel appointment could be a precursor to merging the bureaus — eliminating the #ATF's #independence after 4 years of vigorous #GunControl efforts by the #Biden admin that Trump has vowed to reverse.
