American Warzone: Three KIA, Five WIA in Phoenix, AZ

Three people were killed and five wounded after a fight broke out during an event described as a "concert/car show" at El Camaron Gigante, a steak and seafood restaurant in Glendale, AZ, ten miles northwest of Phoenix. Around 300 people were in attendance at the outdoor venue when a dispute between two groups led to a firefight. No arrests have been made and police are searching for suspects. In an average year, 1,290 people die and 2,125 are wounded by guns in Arizona. In 2022, 48,000 Americans were killed by firearm violence. These are wartime casualty figures. To save lives, state governors might wish to deploy US Army National Guard medics to the hotspots of mass shootings depicted below to triage victims of these urban skirmishes.

Hi Lamplighter. Thanks for the datapoints. The American population has become numb to the fact that an unorganized domestic insurgency has resulted in a person being killed every eleven minutes in the US. There have been 503 mass shooting in the US so far in 2024. The governors of states have ARNG or ANG medics that can be mobilized under Title 32 to the identified hotspots on the map to treat the wounded. Sidenote: US Army medics are excellent; they effectively treated me for an injury overseas last century: api.army.mil

By contrast to our north, Canada (a nation of 41m people) suffered 297 gun deaths in 2021.
