TL;DR Summary

Six people were injured in a mass shooting on the beaches of Isle of Palms, South Carolina, during a "senior skip day" event. Two people were charged with weapons offenses, but it is unclear if they were involved in the shooting. The incident has led to calls for "common sense measures" to curb gun violence, and officials are questioning under what conditions visitors should be allowed to enjoy the city's beaches. The shooting occurred just days after Republican senators advanced legislation allowing anyone 18 and older in South Carolina who can legally buy a gun to carry it around without needing a permit.
