Thank you for reading @newsagg. This is a news aggregator service for steemit. It is constructed daily by hand and does take some time. Many of us practically live on steemit now. As such we can often forget to check what is going on out there outside of steemit. This account was created as an attempt to help mitigate that some. This is experimental so the account will likely go through transitions as it is determined what is most useful to the community. Feel free to submit news tips as comments. They will likely not be looked at extensively until the next aggregation post to which they are most suited. We will try to limit the amount of these posts that we post each day to no more than 4, unless some breaking news warrants there should be more. With this account we will not do a lot of comment and reply unless it is necessary to verify or get further information on a tip. Those of us that work this account will use our personal accounts for interactions of a personal or opinion nature. We wish to remain free of bias and simply present the news on this account.

Thank you for curation donations - will be applied to Steem Power

That is what we were hoping you would use them for. We will be sending more your direction over time. We hope that you will use them for that purpose, but you can use them however you see fit to help out your team or individuals in the war.

the gonna apply new Firearms policy,that what are they aiming for.

Yep, they certainly pounced on it. Yet it wouldn't have stopped this or any shooting I am aware of. It potentially could have made some shootings worse. The ones where citizens who were armed stopped them. Yet, they don't like to talk about that.

They also don't like to talk about how shootings still happen in countries that already have strict gun control.

They also don't bother to note it is already illegal to kill people. Yet that doesn't seem to matter.

They also don't bother to note it is illegal to drink alcohol when you are under 21 years old. Yet people still do.

They also don't bother to note it is illegal to get drugs. Yet they still get them and there is a dangerous black market.

Banning does nothing except create black markets and create crime.

I hurt my ribs the other day... I blame the gun lobby! Looks like Tom Petty is really freefallin now.

Nice service, thank you.
