A search continued Tuesday for a pair of gunmen who opened fire on a man in a New York City playground injuring two children, ages 9 and 11, caught in the crossfire.

The young victims are among 324 children 11 years old or younger who have been shot in incidents across the nation in the first five months of the year, including 94 who were killed, according to the Gun Violence Archive, a website that tracks all U.S. shootings

    By nothing do you mean improving social safety nets? Completely agree. Otherwise, NY has the most gun control of any other state.

    So much so in NYC, only the bribery class and law breakers can own them. An aside, in a just country, those wouldn’t need to be two distinct groups.

      It’s obviously not good/far enough so little to be proud of.

      When even 1 child is killed in a shooting, it’s too much.
