The talk show I listen to, The Dave Glover Show is mostly fun and games. Silly stuff to wipe away the stress of the day...
... but, they do go deep in politics, finances, news stories, when they are of significance. They even have a segment called Liquor, Guns & Ammo. After listening to it for a number of years I've learned a great deal and more accepting of guns... in general.

While that thought has shifted, so has my thoughts on gun violence. It's bad in two ways. In my mind, I'm screaming to the masses... 'Folks, you better get used to this news of gun violence. Kids being killed by guns. Senseless slaughtering. It's going to be normal to hear about this every day. New Town is only the beginning."

and at the same time it bad and sad, that this will be the way people think. This is normal. Kids getting slaughtered will be old news. It becomes less jarring and numbing. Pretty soon folks won't think about it until it effects them.

Bottom line, I think the NRA needs to step back and less rigid and the liberals need to bring common sense, emotionless suggestions and balance... so that even a conversation can happen.
