Some graphic medical details below - the squeamish or disinterested should feel free to avoid them.
Years ago I worked in a hospital and was called in to evaluate a man who tried - and failed - to kill himself with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. Except he did it the "wrong" way.
It was a "through and through" wound - from one side of his head to the other - temple to temple. The entrance and exit wounds were absolutely awful to look at - raw, black, huge. He was alive and talking, but boy, he wasn't "there" at all - nothing but nonsense. I walked in and he was naked from the waist down, playing with his genitals, offering that same hand to me when I walked in. I always thought that people should SEE what the aftermath of gun violence looks like.
Imagine how terrible the sight of those children riddled with gunshots would be, and imagine that the sight of them might shake some sense into those who refuse to regulate ANYTHING related to firearms.
