Under President Clinton, there were eight mass shootings in eight years. Worse was Columbine High School, April 20th, 1999. Shooters Dylan Clybold, Eric Harris, killed 13 of their fellow students and faculty, injured 24. Total during the Clinton presidency, 62 dead, 78 injured in mass shooting. George W.

Florida, June 12, 2016, shooter Omar Mateen, who authorities say was ISIS-inspired, killed 49 people and injured 58 others in that club.

Most likely, high-caliber weaponry will also be constrained. Of course, the shootings this weekend were immediately politicized by people like Beto O'Rourke who blamed it on President Trump. The newspaper Newsday on Long Island editorialized, quote, nationalism is fueling domestic terrorism. Well, if that's true, what happened during the Obama years? Wasn't any nationalism then? The truth is that maniacs are encouraged on the internet to commit violence. We are never going to stop that, but politicians owe it to the public to be as vigilant as possible in trying to stop these mass killings.
