Is it too soon? [View all]

Is it too soon after the shooting to focus less on whether or not the shooter had belief X or identity Y and take a step back to ask instead what kind of country does so little to address a culture that glorifies gun violence specifically and simply accepts the free availability of deadly mass killing tools as the price of... what? Freedom from tyranny? (That worked like a charm, didn't it?)

Let's not worry about scoring points for or against "our side" if it could possibly be at the expense of seeking openings to end the madness. Political spin will happen regardless of the truth.
