I think the most disturbing thing about the shooting in Las Vegas was how slow it was for people to speak on the topic. Social media seemed busy with other concerns, Tom Petty, hurricanes, the usual political hate machine. Finally one of my FB friends who lives in Vegas assured everyone he was okay and that's how I found out.
All mass killings are senseless, but this one even more so. Just some discontent dude who decided he needed to kill people. This has become too common and I'm not even sure what we're supposed to do about it anymore. This man was in his 60s, rich, white, living what seemed like a fun life. And yet, he still had to harm others. It's sick.
