A few years ago, I read an article about the survivors of the attack in Norway.

It was about the teenagers who were shot at the summer camp.

The injuries were devastating. Many of them had to have limbs amputated. Other injuries were just horrifying.

People don't get it. The injuries from an AR-15 like weapon, if they don't kill the person, they will ruin a person's life.

I think the people who say that the American people need to see are correct. Maybe seeing will change some minds about these weapons.

1. TV and movies give Americans a romanticized, sanitized vision of gun deaths.

Some courageous and graphic WWII, VN movies will show you what a battle field really looks like. Body parts everywhere. Such horrific scenes we can hardly comprehend what we are looking at.

2. I wish they'd pass a law requiring the total medical bills be tracked and publicized

Along with who ends up paying for it — victims, insurance, state, or hospital write offs.
So that we can have some data and real conversations. Since so many people only care about money.

They all want their “user taxes”. Should be user taxes on bullets or guns.

4. I did some math on that last year.

The corrected cost of a gun, based on 2020 sales, would be about $60,000 each.

3. There's a movie on Netflix about this attack, "22 July."

It's a dramatization of the attack on Utøya, Breivik's trial, and the effects on some of the injured kids. Worth watching, I think. https://www.netflix.com/title/80210932

5. yep too many people

think getting hit with rounds like the murderer had is like the movies. Even with their fake blood and gore. It just isn't. The reality in cases like this is just ugly, messy, smelly...I can never unsee it and neither can the survivors in cases like this. The average citizen is unable to comprehend a situation like this.
