“While I think the idea of arming worshippers is foolish, it’s good to see Republicans reacting in some way to a mass shooting. Being generally complicitous with the NRA, they usually have little to say about the nation’s gun madness. They might offer ‘thoughts and prayers for the innocent victims.’ And they might admonish journalists and political rivals that ‘this is not the time to debate gun control.’ But they don’t talk much about preventing gun violence.” – Dan Rodricks in The answer to gun madness is not more guns [via baltimoresun.com]
