Today we had two high(er) profile shootings. One in Utah and one in Colorado. These two incidents have dominated the headlines and the social media angst and outrage (although one more than the other).
However, what about the other 123 people who died by gunshot today? That's our daily kill count.

The question for the good & decent people of America is, can you see your domestic enemies now?

The White House lashed out at the creators of this ad for "fear-mongering".
It must have really struck a nerve. Maybe they don't like being outed as fascists.
