Americans have found the deaths of little children by gun violence to be horrible but bearable.  Since the deaths of even children by gun violence is an accepted thing in America today, gun control will never be seriously discussed by those in power - - given that those in power are beholden to the gun lovers, the gun-obsessed, the NRA.  Toddlers killing toddlers, church-goers getting shot, Walmart shoppers dying - - this will all continue while the gun lovers celebrate ease of access to weapons of death.  It is too late for gun control - - we just have to get used to regular waves of death.
