I don't need the media to make me outraged at the level of gun violence, and the frequency of public massacres in America. In other countries in the world, gun regulation has resulted in the decrease of gun violence. I'm not talking about sportsman's guns, but rather about guns whose purpose is solely the taking of human life. So, if that won't work here, then what is a common sense solution, because I'm embarrassed, heartbroken, and through only offering prayers and condolences. Certainly, doing nothing will accomplish nothing.

And to clarify, my tone is calm here. I'm not screaming with moral indignance. I really address this to anyone and everyone who might have a workable fix for this all to common problem.

This is not the fault of the Republicans, the Democrats, the Tea Party, Christians, Muslims, Jews, blacks, whites, Wall Street, immigrants, rednecks, or any other group. I point my finger and say this is your fault.......as I look into the mirror, because I don't absolutely demand of my government that something be done right now to stop this senseless loss of life.
