Militias Run Amok

The price of a well-regulated militia is pretty high:

In December, we tracked 92 shooting incidents in Philadelphia, including nine double shootings and two triple shootings, for a total of 105 gunshot victims, based on original reporting, media reports and other sources at the GunCrisis Reporting Project…

…December totals represent a steep rise from the 64 incidents, 68 victims and 17 fatalities we counted in November, but still add up to less than the 111 people who were shot in Philadelphia during October and the 140 people wounded or killed in August.

It’s amazing that muskets could cause this much heartbreak.
