Or even the long term impact when that black kid was shot by the white cop in, um, well, pick any city, really, you'll probably be right.

When are we, as a society, going to get it through our heads that *there is no long term impact* to gun violence, whether it be racially motivated, mental-illness related, asshoile cop related, or otherwise.

No long-term impact of those events? That's so demonstrably false that I shouldn't bother replying. Perhaps not the long-term impact that YOU wanted to have seen. But all of those events most certainly had long-term impacts.
