Stop it now
There was another mass shooting this week where young adults were forced to do things like jump through broken windows and run for their lives with lacerations to escape the bullets of the murder.
Really.
Do not become desensitized to this. Every single time you hear this, you need to be filled with disgust, horror, and rage. As a human being, this should sicken you, horrify you, enrage you. You should never think, "Ho hum, again?" You need to keep your personal guard up and be sick because this is not right. Not in a million years is this sort of thing acceptable.
I am not going to tackle the NRA or pose my opinions even though my one or two readers might agree. The NRA apparently thinks going to a bar to do country line dancing and getting shot and/or killed by a weapon is acceptable behavior. If someone came into an NRA convention and shot up those in attendance, their survivors would no doubt be disgusted, horrified, and enraged. They'd be appalled, shocked, disgusted. Ironic as hell but the irony would probably be lost on them.
Be appalled, sickened, sad, disturbed. Fight for gun legislation and fight for wide availability of mental health services so that troubled people can get help quickly and effectively. Be worried, on guard, terrified.
I hope it does not happen to you or anyone you know but mostly I hope it never happens again.
