There have been more than 130 mass shootings in 2023 alone, as per BBC.
Including the one that took place in North Carolina earlier this week.
Prior to the gun attacks, Joe Biden questioned: “When in God’s name are we going to stand up to the gun lobby?”
He said it was time to change the gun laws here in the U.S.
“Why are we willing to live with this carnage?” he added in a speech at the White House.
A question many others have also asked.
Yarl was attacked earlier this year.
After ringing the doorbell of the wrong house.
The gunman was 84-year-old Andrew Lester.
He has since been charged with assault of the first degree.
Luckily, Ralph looks set to make a recovery.
But the racist attack has still left scars on the community.
And now, Alicia Keys has stepped up.
She has made a very generous offer to the Yarl family!
ROC Nations has also reportedly reached out offering help.
As the whole world unites in support of the family.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of those impacted by this tragedy.
We hope Yarl makes a full recovery.
