Here in the United States, mass shootings killed at least 16 people over the Memorial Day weekend and left dozens more injured. In New Mexico, three people were killed in a shootout on Saturday by rival motorcycle gangs in the resort town of Red River. In Florida, nine people were hospitalized with bullet wounds Monday when two groups began a gunfight on the crowded Hollywood Broadwalk. Among those injured was a 1-year-old child.
