Shortly after the end of the last great ice age — 10,000 years ago — 57% of the world’s habitable land was covered by forest. In the millennia since then, a growing demand for agricultural land means we’ve lost one-third of global forests — an area twice the size of the United States.

Please explain to me what is actually being done differently for the CEO shooter than any recent school shooter. Because as far as I can tell, we're not jumping to pass any gun control laws because of the CEO, we're just doing the same thing we attempt to do to every murderer, i.e. arresting them.
