Didnt have time to post this earlier today, but I wanted to give my condolences to the families who lost a child or adult relative in the Connecticut shooting. Its a f'n shame you cant wake up to great news like the end of cancer or end to world hunger, but there seems to be no shortage of bad news to start the day off. Anyway, we all know whats gonna come next, a week probably of talk about gun control and how these things could be avoided. After that, its back to business as usual and nothing really getting done. Im seriously over this. Speaking as a legal owner myself, the gun violence in this country is ridiculous. There was just a shooting at mall in Colorado. Not to mention the homicide rates in Chicago at points in time outnumber the deaths of Americans in Afghanistan.  My city of Memphis isnt any better. We have too many emotionally and mentally sensitive people in this country with too easy access to weaponry. Either the treatment of these people needs to be increased or the access to guns needs to decrease. Either way, we need action. Im tired of talk. I really am. Most of us here on DA enjoy drawing heroes and talking about them. As much we liked to see some of them come to life, its not gonna happen. I dont really have any better answers than anyone else, aside from just watch the people you know and try to get them help if you see them reaching a breaking point. Were in an age where you cant assume anything anymore. They say dont judge a book by its cover. Screw that! If they seem off, take action then. Anyway, sorry Im sounding preachy. Just sick of waking up to the work of Jokers but no Batman. Stay safe DA.
