Saddened by yet another mass shooting. It's not hard to
imagine yourself in the situation going about your normal day and next thing
you know you are in immediate danger, unprepared. The sentiment I share the
most is from Adam Carolla: that I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. You
have x number of people willing to do it and the availability of everything
needed to execute it. The only thing stopping it is the determination of that
person.
How much planning involved varies on the individual. You can have
someone spur of the moment walk into a coffee shop (such as in Seattle, a few
weeks back), the AZ shooting in front of a Safeway, to this most recent event,
or Virginia Tech, or in Norway. (I think the most frightening to me still is
the D.C. sniper attacks). After its happened so many times, however infrequent,
I can't say I'm surprised or taken aback anymore.
