“Thoughts and Prayers” Have Become Beneath Our Contempt

Praying for the victims, their families & the San Bernardino first responders in the wake of this tragic shooting.

Yesterday, there was another mass shooting in America.

That was the 355th murderous tirade this year, a rate of more than one mass shooting per day.  More than 600 innocents have been killed by guns, and 1,620 seriously injured.  That’s in addition to the tens of thousands of gun accidents, domestic altercations, and countless other tragedies which have involved the misuse of firearms.

Is this “America’s exceptionalism?”
