Why Won’t America Do Something About This?

Today I just want to repeat what I wrote here a couple of weeks ago, as well as quite a few times before: when oh when will America get a grip of it’s gun control issue? We’re now hearing of yet another mass shooting, this time in California. “Ten people have died following a shooting at a ballroom dance studio in the Californian city of Monterey Park, near Los Angeles, police said. Police say another 10 people are injured and the suspect remains at large.” I realise that anything I write here won’t amount to much, largely because it’s unlikely that anyone who reads my blog will be in a position to do anything about this problem; yet I feel compelled to record how staggered and bewildered I feel at this news. How can America allow this to keep happening? Every month or so it seems there is yet another mass shooting, either in a park, shop or school. It’s heartbreaking. Why won’t they do something about this?
