Hundreds of Americans attended a gun show in Florida just days after a tragic mass-shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. The 500-booth expo is less than 50 miles north of the school and was well attended despite the recent attacks. Reporters in the area said that many, in fact, attended because of the attacks, with a renewed desire to protect themselves. The event, sponsored by Florida Gun Shows, ran through the weekend with organisers not put off by the recent tragedy. Jorge Fernandez,...
