Massacres

For several days now the cable news programs have been devoted entirely to one topic, the latest massacre of school children. But that's not news. Mass killings happen almost weekly. Massacres, like time zones, are now a standard part of American lives. They aren't news. 

This phenomenon is uniquely American. Frequent massacres are not allowed in other countries.

I want to see something done to stop the killing. I don't listen to people talking about it anymore. No point. I want action, not words. Confiscate the weapons of war. 

We will not get action as long as the Republican Party holds offices. The country needs a second party but not a party that does nothing to stop the killing. Never vote Republican.
