Aurora

I may have no right bringing this up after so much pain and suffering. But, that movie theater massacre is just too unbearable not to vent my agony. I am not trying to vent anybody else's, just mine:

First, blame the murdering scumbag. You can not blame the movie. 
Second, blame the gun culture we live in: unfettered access to every grizzly assault weapon and gun known to mankind, legal and illegal, and infinite rounds of ammo.
Third, blame our Country's government who condones and encourages needless butchering wars as if they're a necessary patriotic duty and national treasure to be proud of.  
Fourth, blame our increasingly violent society and world. There's 7 billion of us now, and Mother Nature's making us pay the price for our wanton disregard of the environment and each other. 
Fifth, blame the increasing gap between the haves and have-not's, a grotesque income and opportunity inequality that has probably doomed us all.
Six, don't talk PEACE unless you mean it and can back it up with peaceful actions. 

I will most likely add more, but it's a start. Thoughts and prayers go out to all those unlucky movie-going innocents in Aurora, and the city itself.
