Minds, Weapons and The Ultimate Question

I use to say, "Guns don't kill people. People kill people."

Now, I'm not 100% sure I even agree with my own statement. I've read several columns, editorials, and blogs the last three days about the horrific events on Friday. I find myself agreeing with all of them even though most contradict each other.

Am I wishy-washy? Am I a pushover? Do I have any real opinion of my own?

The answer to the latter is obviously 'yes,' otherwise this blog wouldn't exist. Truth is, in a situation like this, I think there is only one thing to agree on.

Horrific events like this must end.

I don't care if that means better mental healthcare, gun control laws, less gun control laws, etc. I don't know what "it" is that's going to fix this, but something must be done.

In the meantime, I'm going to continue to pray. Pray for the victims. Pray for the mentally disturbed. Pray for our nation.

I'm just gonna' pray.

May peace be with us all.
