Not only do we get to accept that mass shootings are the price we pay for the privilege of living in a free society ( where we can't even discuss outlawing 33 round clips and 100 round drums), but we can have the privilege of going bankrupt because of them too.
All because we don't have universal health care and Obamacare is not yet in full force, a new family faces bankruptcy due to injuries the new father sustained in the Aurora theater.
Caleb Medley was shot in the eye and is in a medically induced coma. His wife is in the same hospital having just given birth to their son, Hugo. She was also in the theater (pregnant at the time) but escaped.
Caleb is a comedian.

Even if he makes a fully recovery the medical bills are expected to top $2 million dollars, he is uninsured and it will bankrupt the new family.
