Four Dead in Rural PA

Four people were killed this afternoon, one a woman decorating for Christmas inside a church. The gunman was eventually killed by police when he tried to ram their car with his.

They'll find the gun and see to whom it was registered. If it's the gunman, they'll search his house, go to his place of employment, check his car registration, and talk to neighbors who said either he kept to himself or was a nice guy. Don't you watch Law and Order?

Motivation? We'll probably never know.

Let's keep track of every murder in America everyday and not bury it as a stat in a newspaper. Do it on a National level so we can see which states have the most murders/per capita/per diem. Then we can move (not usually a choice), scorn the states with the most deaths by gun, identify the type of weapon and ammo,  whether or not it was in self defense and put pressure for gun control where it needs to be put.

MADD is an example of a successful grassroots organization that made drunk driving go from a wink and a nod from Officer Mensclubmember to a major crime. Do cars kill People?

It has to have a catchy acronym so people remember it. And group has to have the funding and the balls to fight the NRA.
