For some survivors, the mass shooting at Borderline Bar and Grill in Thousand Oaks, California, wasn’t their first. Dozens of people at the country music bar outside Los Angeles when a gunman opened fire late Wednesday also survived the October 2017 Las Vegas massacre, where a gunman killed 58 people. Nick Champion was among those inside when the gunman struck, killing at least a dozen people. “It’s a big thing for us. We all are a big family, and unfortunately, this family got hit twice.”That music fans like Champion could be caught up in more than one gun-fueled massacre is a sobering reflection of how frequently mass shootings happen in America.
