Topic Reading-Vol.1899-6/23/2017

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Shootings kill or injure 19 children daily
About two per every 100,000 children are killed and nine are shot and wounded by guns every day in America, a recent report by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows. These amount to an annual total of nearly 1,300 deaths and 6,000 gunshot wounds.
Unlike the Middle East or Afghanistan, there aren’t any civil wars or disputes, bombing or suicide attacks or any large scale civil unrest in this country of dream and freedom. Then why are there so many gunshots among children in the U.S.? The tradition, custom, culture, law, access to guns or incautious parents to blame?
Read the article and think when, or if ever, an AI-powered safety mechanism is installed in every gun sold or traded in America.
