No one needs an AR-15We’ve all had abundant time to think about gun laws, gun violence, dead children on schoolroom floors, and the Second Amendment. Who can even keep track of the number of times we’ve been asked to send our prayers out to the victims and survivors of the ongoing carnage?
No American mass shooting would be complete without reminders from the National Rifle Association that the problem in this country isn’t guns; it’s mental illness. Mental illness exists everywhere in the world, of course, but mass shootings do not. In this country, however, they have become so commonplace that our response to more death is almost ritualistic.
After every mass killing, we keep hearing this blather that amounts to “Nothing can be done” from Paul Ryan, Marco Rubio and other elected representatives.
