I think this latest shooting is a tripping point and I think many state
legislators will start to do something. It will be slow but the
citizens demand it.

The weird thing is these killings represent about 0.9% of the gun
murders and 0.20% of gun deaths in the US but it is the only thing we
want to talk about. I suppose it is because these are white kids in
the suburbs and not black kids in the city.
I still say the only up side to keeping troubled kids away from guns
is they will be paying more attention in chemistry classes.
