Locations of recent shootings Published October 16, 2019October 16, 2019 by Marcello Colamaria Many recent mass shootings have occurred in various locations over the past few years. Specific areas of these incidences include churches, malls, concerts, schools and movie theaters. These are all locations where we should feel safe and not be at risk of danger yet there is always one person to mess up these events. An example of this is the shooting that occurred at a Walmart in El Paso this claimed the lives of 22 people. If we are doing our everyday routines or just going shopping we should not have to worry about someone coming in to the store and just start shooting people. If there were stricter gun control laws were set than the individual who actually went to the store and started shooting would not have been able to carry that weapon into the store or have possession of that weapon.
