After reading this interview with Henry Girouox in the aftermath of the Sandy Hill school shooting, I feel there is nothing further to be said about gun control and gun violence in America; he pretty much covers the gamut of issues with the focus on what matters most.  If I were to take from that article something we can partially control, it would be that violence permateates politics.  I have no idea what people imagine I've been so exercised about recently, but this is it.
