Sadly, we will demand and be horrified by the images of the CT shootings for a few days and invest incredible emotional and psychic capital in being upset and offended and wringing our hands while asking "How?" and "Why?", then after a few days we will totally forget about it because it might lead to an actual - and uncomfortable - conversation about those questions, and 10,000 gun murders a year just isn't enough death to make us willing to that uncomfortable.
