Hearing the gunman worked the sushi department and brought an AK into the store. 15 injured, many dead, including himself.

So yeah, lets go ahead and do some type of gun control. Make it more difficult for someone to buy it in a store only for it to become easier to buy in the streets (which you can argue it already is easier to buy one in the streets).
When will people realize that more often than not, making something illegal only creates more problems?
Drugs for example. If you want to clean up the streets, legalize drugs. I guarantee you if the demand was taken off the street the number of murders a year, in the country would drop at least 15%.
Then if it was able to be bought at some type of place where people know what they are buying, that would bring the number of ODs down.
Speaking of the streets, which is where most of the shooting murders happen (I can't say for sure, I didn't look it up, but I am assuming). How many of those doing the shooting do you think own a gun legally?

A lot of people are saying it was a sushi chef who was fired, no idea if that's true
I've heard that as well.
Apparently they had issues with him and he had an altercation with someone today that set him off.

Collierville is probably the wealthiest suburb of Memphis. Check on your people if y'all know anyone out that way.

Germantown is probably a little bit better off than Collierville but not by much.

Debatable but I was literally about to start setting up shop overthere starting tomorrow to make some side money doing Instacart until this next job starts in a couple of weeks. Fack that tho... I'll be working from home and let someone else deliver my groceries

Well, I mean statistically the chances of another sushi chef going on a shooting rampage at the Collierville TN Kroger is probably low, you'd be alright

Typically the shootings happen in the poorer neighborhoods but that spills over sometimes into the working class neighborhood. I moved from east Memphis near the bowling alley to Bartlett earlier this year. There was a shooting at the Walgreens where I still get my medicine from last week in easy Memphis. There was another today in similar area. Friend had his back window shot out in daylight. A month ago a friend got robbed by 2 guys that stole a police car. They were in full uniform and pulled him over at quince and Perkins.
IMO poverty is the biggest driver of crime other than crazy people.

That area has gotten a little sketchy

There were multiple airlifts and news said several critical injured so the number is likely going to increase when they say those words.

Bro this has nothing to do with a disgruntled worker bringing in an AK and spraying Kroger.
