Gun violence spiked over Fourth of July weekend, with shootings reported in nearly every U.S. state that killed a total of at least 220 people and wounded close to 570 others, according to the Gun Violence Archive.

The database, which collects information about fatalities and injuries linked to incidents involving discharged firearms, updated its records early Tuesday. Published tallies show the number of weekend shootings was almost equal to the number of resulting injuries, with well over 500 instances of shootings documented nationwide between Friday and Monday. There were only five states where one or more shootings were not reported in that time frame.

What a shitty way to celebrate Independence Day.

I wonder which ones those were.

It's actually below average if you count all forms of gun violence including suicide & police.

The daily average is over 300.

Edit: sorry I thought it was 220 shot. If they're actually killed that is twice as bad as the average.
