Gun Power is a sad routine in the US.
In the United States, firearms are part of daily life. It was only during the weekend in neighboring Salt Lake City, a person was shot against US President Donald Trump in protests and was seriously injured. According to the police, he later succumbed to his injuries. Pistols and weapons of larger calibers are easily accessible and in circulation. Serious attacks in particular always cause debates about sharpening arms legislation.
