After each of those acts against Trump, the air filled with the usual phrases. "Violence has no place in America," Vice President Kamala Harris posted on social media. "Violence has no place in our country," agreed her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Yet, the frequency of mass shootings continues to rise, underscoring a stark reality—that while rhetoric may condemn violence, it persists in American society at alarming rates.
Most American mass-shooting victims are not students in school. On July 21, nine people were shot, including three killed, at a street party on North Alden Street in Philadelphia. The tragic events show that the plight of gun violence affects all segments of the population, not just vulnerable students, highlighting a wider societal issue that transcends specific incidents and demographics.
