I mean, one mass shooting is like another. It sucks, and is miserable, and nothing ever changes, and I feel so voyeuristic for caring at all, but I can't ever care enough either.

Nevertheless, I've now accumulated an awful lot of links, so here they are.

One note: My perspective is that we could really do with some reasonable gun control in this country, and that I, personally, wouldn't weep if we had an unreasonable amount of gun control either. You're entitled to have another point of view. Just have it somewhere else. Usually I'm all up for different points of view in the comments, but not this time. Just not feeling it. (And this should go without saying, but just in case - I'm also not in the mood for arguments about whether or not I should want your argument here, whether or not I should want to argue about whether I want your arguments here, etc. Take your recursive praeter itio and go.)
