When I first saw the story of Friday's massacre at a Connecticut elementary school, my first reaction was almost boredom. That would turn out to be the most positive emotion that I would have that day. The fact that this being the second public shooting this week isn't the most astonishing thing about this story should at least give us some pause. What really hurts my heart, and I'm sure the hearts of most people, are the victims. Of the 27 people killed in this shooting, 20 of them were children, some as young as 5 years old.
