Yet another mass shooting in the US, but when the media attention dies down will the country be any closer to introducing new gun control measures?
Just moments before opening fire on a crowd at a Northern California festival, the suspected gunman took to his now-deleted Instagram account to promote a book steeped in far-right, anti-Semitic and racist ideas.
In California, Legan had been armed with an AK-47 assault-type rifle, Gilroy Police Chief Scot Smithee told reporters, and the weapon had been legally purchased in Nevada three weeks earlier. Including victims of the deadly shooting in Gilroy, the Archive recorded at least 20 mass shooting-related deaths around the US in July alone.
The Gun Violence Archive has documented 32,021 instances of gun violence of all types so far in 2019. Altogether, those incidents have resulted in at least 8,468 deaths.As presidential hopefuls gear up for the 2020 elections, Democratic candidates have sought to gain wider support for gun control measures.
During the first Democratic debate of the campaign season, candidate Pete Buttigieg proposed universal background checks for people seeking to purchase guns, as well as banning guns at schools.
