shooting in the US

Another shooting in the US. I was too busy through the day to hear about it until after 17:00*. The youngest of the dead children was about fourteen months older than our Ken. And now I'm sure the usual hysterical in-fighting will resume and the record sales will continue for the gun manufacturers.
*This job does have its busy days: I once came out of my work tunnel-vision at the end of the day to discover that a crew had been in replacing the fluorescent bulbs overhead while I worked.
