Aurora

Nothing.

That is what is going to change after today's shootings in Aurora, Colorado.  There will be a lot of teeth gnashing, a lot of much needed and deserved support for the victims and their families, a few letters to the editor in support of gun control in various newspapers across America, the NRA will spout its usual tripe, the second amendment to our constitution will be misinterpreted for the umpteenth time, and in a matter of days we will turn back to our affairs and be thankful it wasn't us, and hope that the next time it happens, it won't be us again.

Because happen again it will, and we'll continue to cycle and repeat.

But heaven forbid we should have a serious discussion on what's worth more--a right to gun ownership or a human life.

Peace,
