Just the trivial price we pay for our gun culture.
I just wish, I really do wish, that all of those who justify the guns would themselves personally lose someone to all this senseless gun violence. If you can have your wife, son, cousin, father, best friend, shot and killed and say, "Oh, well, we need all these guns," then you are a monster.
I don't think a single one of these deaths is justifiable or excusable. I only wish they would happen only to those who want to perpetuate our gun culture.
