It's purely a profit driven business decision.
Just violent thugs doing what they do best, committing violent acts with no regard or remorse for who they may injure or kill. Thinking back about the number of news reports I've read or heard about where an innocent child was killed in a drive-by shooting, equals or exceeds the number killed in school shootings. No, I'm not trying to trivialize the deaths of children, it hurts my heart whenever I hear of such things. We have a violence problem in this country that no one is making any effort to address.

Seriously, children sitting in school class room is no different than children playing on the street. And how many "mass shootings" have involved children playing on the string solely?
Okay, I give up, since we can not solve EVERYTHING, let's just not solve anything and sit here arguing semantics. I am done with this thread.
