... where I live a few months ago. (The shooting was at the corner of Weber and Indianola.)

This statehouse shooting can be added in with the Linden area shooting of 2 .... one dead and
the other is in critical condition, a 62 year old man was shot killed on the north east side of the city,
and 2 people were shot and killed in Galloway, OH just south and west of Columbus. The Galloway
shooting has now been followed up by another killing a few hours ago and in the suburb of Reynolds-
burg somebody just died from a drive by shooting 3 or so days ago.

This is madness.

It is the guns. End of story.
