As part of our series on the issue of gun control in the US, we looked at the year 2018 in detail. This poster is the result of our year-long research into mass shootings in the US. We detail these shootings in a website usaunderfire and you can also read about the project in more detail here.
This poster totals the mass shootings in the US for 2018. We again use the US flag and if we had shown the actual number of gunshots the flag would probably have just faded to black. Instead, we give a sense of the destruction of human life and print the actual numbers on the poster.
