Research shows the number of mass shootings has created an increased level of anxiety for a growing number of people. That’s the case for Mila Johns, who doesn’t leave her Maryland home as much as she used to. Johns feels defenseless and gripped by fear that she could become the next victim of a mass shooting. “I've changed my day-to-day routine,” she says. “I don't go to the movies. When we go out, I know where the exits are. I sit with my back to the wall. Sometimes it's easier to just not deal with it and stay home.” When she does go out, Johns went as far as buying a trauma pack—which includes trauma pads, sterile gloves, duct tape, bandages, dressing and antiseptic—to take with her. Johns’ 13-year-old daughter also carries on her backpack when she goes to school. “Sadly, that's where she's most likely to have to use it, it feels” Johns says. “And that's just heartbreaking.” Johns knows some people may feel she's overreacting, but she points out that research shows the amount of mass shootings in the U.S. this year has outpaced the number of days. That's according to Gun Violence Archive, a non-profit research group. It qualifies mass shootings as four or more people shot or killed, excluding the shooter. As of now, 2019 is on track to average more than one mass shooting a day.“We're at, I think on Sunday it was 251 mass shootings on the 216th day of the year,” Johns says. “It just feels inevitable.” Daniel Z. Lieberman, a professor of psychiatry at George Washington University, says although mass shootings are happening more frequently, it’s still very rare.“The risk of being killed in a mass shooting is about 1 in 100,000,” he explains. “Compare that to the risk dying from cancer, which is 1 in 7; dying in an automobile, that's about 1 in 100, so rationally, it just doesn't make sense to worry about that.” He says it's normal to have some anxiety after a tragedy, but he says people can get caught up with the idea of being in danger rather than the reality. “Anxiety is not a rational experience. It's an emotion,” he says. “And emotions often don't respond to facts, and particularly statistics, which tend to be very dry.”For Johns, she says she would be more comforted by action instead of numbers. “Statistics aren't helping anybody feel better when we are living in a culture where this just keeps happening and there's no desire or willingness to change,” she says. 2424

There are tens of thousands of sexual assault cases that not only go untold, but unsolved. Joyful Heart Foundation is a non-profit fighting to get backlogged rape kits sitting on evidence shelves tested in order to clear more cases. "No matter where they live and no matter what their zip code is, they have rights to have their kit tested,” says Ilse Knecht, director of policy and advocacy at the foundation. But why aren't they being tested in the first place? “One of the biggest factors is rape is not prioritized as the violent crime that it is, Knecht says. “So, unless somebody asks for that kit to be sent forward, such as a detective or prosecutor, it could sit there forever.” Knecht says factors such as money and resources also play a role. Reports show many of the cases are being suspended instead of closed, but that’s changing, slowly. “Just had a big win in New York state,” says Knecht. “Gov. Cuomo just signed a bill, the Sexual Assault Survivors’ Bill of Rights, that allows survivors, among many other things, to know the status of their rape kit.” During the 2017 legislative session, the Joyful Heart Foundation helped pass 17 bills in 15 states to push rape kit backlog testing. It was a major step toward justice, and Knecht says they’re not done fighting.“It's really important that every rape kit that has been sitting on the shelf for years is taken off the shelf and know that every single kit that is collected is tested in a timely manner,” she says. 1500

A day at the beach turned into a frightening rescue for one 8-year-old boy after the giant unicorn-shaped raft he was playing on suddenly drifted out to sea.Declan O'Connor found himself holding on for life as high winds swept him further into the Atlantic Ocean, the unicorn's head and horn serving as a stand-in sail.Luckily for the boy, a team of rescuers were quickly on scene and retrieved him. Local rescue chief Tony Young credited the boy's decision to stick with the unicorn —a wise move, or else he might've drowned."We've rescued dozens of these things over the years, but this was the first time there was actually a little kid attached to it," Young told CNN affiliate 694

"We all do have freedom of speech, but at times there are ramifications for the negative that can happen -- when you're not thinking about others, you're only thinking about yourself."That quote should forever be an asterisk attached to the on-court legacy 269

(Thread):Woke up in the middle of the night last week with idea of converting our @Fanatics factory in PA that makes official @MLB jerseys into a facility that makes much needed masks and gowns and then donating them to help fight this horrendous virus. pic.twitter.com/r6FAxUdlgH— Michael Rubin (@MichaelGRubin) March 26, 2020 340
