“Almost 42 million Americans – over one-eighth of the US population – are estimated to have lived within one mile of a mass shooting since 2014, according to an original CNN analysis of data from the Gun Violence Archive (GVA) and US Census Bureau.” #GunViolence

@GottaLaff I live pretty close to the Aurora theater (2012- 12 killed. A little before 2014 but still) and the shooting in Denver was just down the street from my job (3-4 months ago- 3 people killed). Columbine was fairly close to my kid’s school and my daughters friends lost an older brother there. It’s too damn much
