A look at the key findings of The Associated Press-Times Square Alliance poll:
Preoccupied by mass shootings
Americans said the most important events of 2015 were a string of mass shootings, including the attacks in San Bernardino, Calif., and Paris, plus Islamic State group atrocities.
Fifty-seven percent of those polled said this year was worse than the last year for the world as a whole, up from the 38 percent asked that question a year ago. Only 10 percent believe 2015 was a better year than 2014, while 32 percent think there wasn't much difference.

People are obsessed with it and believe things are so much worse this year because of the INCESSANT drumbeat of phony statistics and hyped-up drama from the gun-grabbers, led by the White House.
There have been incidents this year, just like last year and the year before, but the thing that has changed the dynamics is the rhetoric.
And the thing is.. these folks who are so worried would be sitting ducks if the guns were taken away from those around them (like me) who are legally armed.
Think about it.
Very well said 9:21PM.
