Sad and horrified

I am saddened and horrified by the mass murder yesterday in Orlando. 49 innocent people dead, and 53 more wounded, because of something that is becoming frighteningly common in the U.S.: A madman bought a high powered military-style assault rifle and then used it.

I suppose I could use this space to talk about the NRA, but what would be the point? The horror of easy access to such high powered weaponry speaks for itself.

Yesterday was a terrible tragedy for those poor people and their families. My heart goes out to them.

And our continuing inability to have a sane conversation about these kinds of weapons is a terrible tragedy for our country.
