I started this thread to point out the biased press coverage of the event.

I agree that we have become inured to the atrociousness of these occurrences.

Publicly declaring one's compassion for the bereaved after an event like this can often seem insincere, regardless of one's political leanings.

I think it's a given that almost everyone feels some sympathy for the grieving families.

As .455 says, it does feel that we, legal gun owners and shooting enthusiasts, bear the brunt of the blame for these incidents, and the left desperately wants to appear more compassionate than everyone else, and are willing to shed crocodile tears to achieve their goals.


There is definitely another future thread here worth exploring. Compassion, grief and false sympathies.
