and I have seen it and it is horrifying. HOWEVER, that was in the 80's when I was doing that and there was nothing like what it must be like now. Gun shot victims were not common but they were terrible to see. I cringe and worry about anyone needing to see and deal with it now with these weapons. To think of someone having a loved one, especially their child having to live with this the rest of their lives is unthinkable.

I do agree with some that a controlled ad campaign might help. "See this? This was a 6 year old before the gunman took them down." As much as I think that might help I somehow think it would not really make for a change and to put sensitive people already clued into this through those kinds of images is a tough decision to make.

We have to do something but I am clueless to what it might be.
