Cynical stock tip:

Buy gun stocks. It will be a bullish time for them.

The higher the casualty count, the more vulnerable the victims, the more the motherfucking gun humpers stock up the ol' gun safe.

There is a real sickness in our country.

They're already extremely profitable in the long run. Just reading posts Jun 2016 #2
Even more cynical tip: are there any publicly traded hospital or cemetery stocks on the market? NightWatcher Jun 2016 #3

weren't parroted at every occasion, I imagine the sales wouldn't be so high. It's sort of funny. Gun controllers stoke the fire with rhetoric, gun owners go out and buy up guns to head off potential legislation, the gun lobby is strengthened, and the gun controllers remain blissfully unaware of just how much they tilled the field that grew the beast. "We'll just have to act extra authoritarian next time!" they say. The NRA and Ruger sit back and have a chuckle. Rinse, repeat.

There was a time when reasonable measures could have been taken. Alas, the USS Gun Control Credibility set sail some time ago.
