If you believe as so many do the key to survival in our uncertain times is a loaded gun, yesterday was your kind of day. While not much is known about the 22 year old being held for a mass shooting in the Chicago suburb of Highland Park which left 6 dead and dozens injured. It seems the shooter set himself up on a rooftop overlooking a July 4 parade and proceeded to spray the area with high powered bullets.
The shooter will be brought to justice. But what about the gun industry and the politicians and judges who enabled this horror. The stories of the victims will be told, the community will clean up the site and business will continue as usual. Until those who facilitate the twisted dreams of these mass killers are sanctioned, the carnage will continue. If your state and federal representatives have not come up with a policy of gun control which will actually make a difference they do not deserve your support. Banning all assault weapons is a starting point, but it is not enough.
