First mass shooting in Colorado since March 22 when 10 people were killed. MARCH 22! 49 days. And once again it is being treated as just the news.

1. We appear to be getting accustomed to such stories

as normal events. That is a terrible, terrible thing.

5. Getting?

We've long since become accustomed.

These have been happening for decades, and not only have we done NOTHING to prevent them, we've made it easier to acquire guns.

It is what it is. We are who we are. And I don't expect Anything to change in my lifetime. Not a chance.

6. It hasn't been happening at this rate for decades

It's becoming even more frequent.
