LIVES IN THE BALANCE

An Assemblage Examining The Cost of Money in Politics

I wanted to speak to the ongoing madness of mass shootings here in the US.  It seems where other nations have demonstrated a clear decrease in mass shootings via strict gun control measures here in the US we refuse to follow suit.  With each new shooting I've wondered 'How many lives lost will it take'?  This piece "Lives in the Balance" places over 1000 victims of mass shooting in a balance scale where the worth of their lives is opposed by, the 2nd amendment argument one hears from law makers who are opposed to change, and the money donated by the NRA to elect those same law makers.
