I'm an American and this has barely been covered by US news... It's horrendous..

[YouTubemessedupmyhandle]

‘Why does this keep happening?’ asks only country where this continues to happen.

[yesterday]

is this even regarded as news at this point?

[GriefTourist]

Does America 2024 even count as a civilised country ?

[Alan-Zorro]

Americans don't seem to be able to learn from past experiences.

Third world country wearing a Gucci belt

[LadySpeedwell]

And the U.S. has the sick audacity to criticise other countries.

[STEVANHORNE-bv]

Mention the American Dream and I think of stuff like this, one hell of a price Americans pay in pursuit of an illusion!

[Awibrahor]

Will Americans never learn? How many more years before the madness will be stopped?

[PSA]

Thank god they banned Kinder eggs early on, this could have been much worse. 👀

A 14 year old in USA made the headlines last month. What sickening people Americans becoming.😮

[strangemagic]

The US will never learn but it's the innocent that suffer. My sincere condolences to the victims families

[wendymcintyre]

Still god forbid people mention gun laws

[callofthewintermoon]

Shootouts around here have become the norm. It's very sad and tragic. Call it a mass shooting but this is a result of violence between friends, family members, aquaintences. So many deaths reported every week in and around the Birmingham area, hard to keep up with. People have no respect for life and choose to resort to violence to solve their differences. My heart goes out to the families.

[ForumArcade]

It's not even news at this point, sadly.

[Monster-zcln]

You’ll ban kinder eggs, but you can still buy firearms over the counter……WTF🤦🏼

[guscalderon]

Happens everyday and doesn't get news coverage

[bsr]

We have a terrible mental health crisis in this country.

[hood_TheJoker]

I'm in the southern US why am i seeing this on a British channel 1st 😠

[maxfastest]

Living my entire 65 years in the USA, and its really gone to hell !
Not that it was ever that great anyways, but now its just down right insanity
