Shortly after the "9 1 1" incident 15 anniversary, there were many attacks in succession, which caused great panic among the American people.
In fact, as early as June this year, there was a shooting incident with the largest number of casualties in American history, killing 49 people and injuring 53 others. This may be the worst shooting incident in American history.
I have to say that the United States is really a high incidence of terrorist attacks. After every serious terrorist attack, it has had a serious impact on the hearts of the American people. What serious attacks have occurred in the United States in recent years? Let's take a look.
