8 Children Killed in Louisiana Mass Shooting

Establishment-critical narrative

Eight children are dead in Shreveport, and the U.S. still refuses to reckon with the fact that its gun homicide rate is nearly 25 times higher than that of other high-income countries. No other wealthy nation sees this level of carnage year after year, with 600-plus mass shootings annually becoming the norm. Addressing this domestic crisis deserves far more urgency than any foreign entanglement.
