I Think Its Sad

59 people died yesterday and 500 were injured. But yet people laugh and make jokes. Many of you have criticized America for our rights to own guns. Trust me I know we have a problem as well but to sit there when so many have died, when so many are grieving over lost loved ones you bash them for being there or you point your fingers and say we deserved it. NO one deserves to be gunned down. A little more compassion during this time is what's needed. And hopefully later we can fix what needs fixing.

I think many of us do feel sadness and empathy for the victims and their family. But don't feel sorry for the US as a country. Many of us are shaking our heads in disbelief that the US still won't make the changes needed, and that so many of its citizens hold the right to bear arms over the right NOT to have this kind of event happen. What happened in Las Vegas was probably predictable, certainly preventable. It will happen again and again and again. The US continues to reap what it sows.
