A Violent Fourth of July Weekend Has Resulted In 220 Deaths and 570 Injuries

 

A new report from the Gun Violence Archive has revealed that, during last week’s Fourth of July weekend, there were a large number of deaths and injuries due to shootings.

 

According to the report, a total of at least 220 people were killed, while 570 were wounded. It also notes 500 “instances of shootings” over the course of the four day weekend. Out of those, at least 11 were classified as active shooter events.

 

These numbers were up from the previous year, where more than 180 people were killed and 516 were injured.

 

This includes the Chicago incident last week, when a shooter attacked a parade in Highland Park, killing seven people and injuring more than two dozen others before being captured.

The ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization is expected before the high court recesses for the summer in late June. The case that could overturn the court’s landmark 1973 ruling in Roe, which legalized abortion nationwide, involves a dispute over a Mississippi law that would ban most abortions after the 15th week of pregnancy.

Supreme court to release decision on Dobbs v. Jackson case
Wednesday could be the day the Supreme Court releases its official decision on Dobbs vs. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the case challenging the precedent set by Roe vs. Wade and access to abortion in the United States.

“A draft of the opinion was leaked in May, indicating the court was preparing to overturn Roe vs. Wade. The court acknowledged the leaked decision was real but insisted it may not represent the final opinion of the court.

The high court releases decisions on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays when they are not already hearing a case. They released three decisions on Monday, but not Dobbs v. Jackson.”
