Need a Good Laugh? Here!!

Breathlessly, the announcement!!

From Philadelphia to Portland, cities across the United States are experiencing spikes in gun violence on warm days. Researchers have begun to explore heat as a contributor to firearm violence, but current research on this subject is limited, focusing only on a few cities.

Now, a new study by Boston University School of Public Health and the University of Washington School of Social Work provides a first-of-its-kind analysis of heat-attributable shootings as a nationwide problem.

Published in the journal JAMA Network Open, the study found a consistent relationship between higher temperatures and higher risk of shootings in 100 of the country's most populated cities....

GLOBAL WARMING!!!!!!  It's GLOBAL WARMING, I say!!

However, if you've lived and observed 'the news' for more than 15 years, this is.......ahhh..........normal.  Late spring, summer, and most of fall, people are outdoors, and so are the gang-bangers.  They hibernate during the winter.

Sheesh.
