We found more than 100 people who died, facedown and handcuffed, as we looked into the prone restraint death of #GeorgeFloyd.

As the #DerekChauvinTrial begins... it's important to know the dangers of the position are well known.

As the video plays of George Floyd's death right now... I can't help but think of people like Anton Black...

I often wonder, in the immediate aftermath of yet another mass shooting, if we in "the media" place too much emphasis on the types of weapons that are used in less than 5% of all gun homicides in this country...

this is NOT to diminish the loss of life in these events.
...but the ensuing coverage, with its emphasis on "assault weapons" pushes out critical coverage of the actual toll of overall gun violence in this country...

...which, as of late, has gotten worse.

Take 2020, for example.

Last year, according to gunviolencearchive.org, around 53 people died EVERY DAY in the US due to gun violence.

Think of it this way, if ten people died at 2:30pm in Boulder, it might haven taken another 4-5 hours for another TEN to die in the US.
