Aurora, IL

I am also told that at least one fire station had kept their flag lowered, and locked it in place, requiring the fire chief to come cut the lock. Also that there are people sneaking around lowering flags.

    It’s insulting. Regardless of your feelings on Kirk, this was hardly an attack on the whole of America. It was yet another school shooting. We have quite a few of those.

      Arguably, a school shooting with only one victim is progress? I didn’t quickly find statistics on average deaths per incident, but did see that there is over 1 incident per week average since 2021.

        Not every victim of a shooting dies from the injuries. I would argue one whole death is in the realm of shooting event deaths even with multiple victims.
