It seems to never end. The news programs on TV have to use a split screen to show yesterday's two mass shootings at the same time!
I'm hoping that at least one or two of the gunmen who were shot will survive - not because they deserve to, but interviewing and studying them might give us some valuable tips on how to prevent more of these mass murders. Of course, the prevalence of guns is a large part of it, but there has to be some motive also. What would inspire anyone to start killing innocent people who came to enjoy a sporting event or a religious holiday at a beach?
Or maybe there is no answer, other than that they're just plain nuts. Although the recent upsurge in antisemitism makes me feel that it could be more than just mental illness. Maybe mental illness plus something political, or maybe some cruelty done to them which put them around the bend? The motivation behind all these murders always seems to be a big mystery.
