Gun violence

 

President Joe Biden will address a major gun violence prevention conference in Washington, DC, today, nearly two years after he signed the first major federal gun safety legislation in decades. The appearance comes as the White House and the Biden campaign have sought to promote the president's work to tackle gun violence — an issue his team believes resonates with key blocs of voters, including women, young people and Latino communities. A CNN/SSRS poll conducted in April found that 48% of registered voters said gun policy will be extremely important to their presidential vote in November. A Gallup survey last year found 56% of US adults believe gun laws in the country should be stricter.

By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1}

About 60 students who survived the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, one of the deadliest in American history, will graduate from high school today.

  • Those killed — 20 first-graders and six faculty members — will be honored in the ceremony today at Connecticut's Newtown High School.

Survivors of the 2012 shooting are pushing for change as they head to college. Several met with Vice President Kamala Harris last week at the White House.

  • "Graduation is a really big milestone in our lives. ... [W]alking across that stage will be a really bittersweet moment," Grace Fischer, 18, told the Hartford Courant.

Go deeper.

Bus hijacking

 

One person is dead after a gunman on Tuesday hijacked a commuter bus in Atlanta with 17 people inside, prompting passengers to frantically text loved ones and call 911 for help, police said. As police arrived on the scene and tried to confront the gunman, the suspect held the bus driver at gunpoint and forced him to speed away. The ensuing rush-hour police chase zig-zagged across highway lanes and suburban streets as the bus led authorities across at least two counties. When the bus finally ground to a halt, passengers streamed out and the 39-year-old gunman was arrested without incident, police said. A passenger found shot aboard the bus was taken to a hospital, where they later died, officials said.

What makes gun bump stocks so deadly

Why it matters: The plastic devices, which were used extensively in the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, will now be able to return to the market in states without their own bans, allowing consumers to mimic fully automatic firearms.

The US saw another weekend of gun violence in several communities, extending the list of around 220 mass shootings in the country so far this year. Two people were killed and 14 others were injured following a shooting at a Juneteenth celebration in Round Rock, Texas, on Saturday, police said. Round Rock is located about 20 miles north of Austin. Authorities said Sunday evening they were actively searching for a suspect. In Michigan, at least nine people — including two children — were wounded after an apparent "random" shooting at a crowded splash pad in Rochester Hills. The 42-year-old shooter has been identified but his motive remains unclear.
