FILE - People gather during a community vigil for the Half Moon Bay shootings in Half Moon Bay, Calif., on Friday, Jan. 27, 2023. Multiple people were killed in two related shootings at a mushroom farm and a trucking firm in a coastal community south of San Francisco. The U.S. is setting a record pace for mass killings in 2023, replaying the horror in a deadly loop roughly once a week so far this year. The bloodshed overall represents just a fraction of the deadly violence that occurs in the U.S. annually. (Gabrielle Lurie/San Francisco Chronicle via AP, File)
