The location is not important, it is the gun that is the common denominator.

(13,877 posts)average American to the point where the real conversation is. But it's beginning to remind me of the mind-numbing drone (pun intended) that, like war, seem beyond the consciousness and active response available to most average people. Thus, it's left to those who are seriously affected...the victims and their families...to do the heavy lifting (rather than go into mind-numbing denial) until the nation arises in appropriate response.
We have not done that with "real war" as of yet, so not holding my breath about our domestic violence crisis. Does bring to mind the Biblical saying, "They who live by the sword shall die by the sword." It's not hard to translate into 21st century society.
