“It’s a little bit too soon” after Sunday’s Sutherland Springs mass shooting in a church to start talking about gun control measures, according to our president.
Actually, it’s a little bit too late. Ask the families of the 26 people killed and the 20 others who were injured.
It’s also too late for the 58 slaughtered last month in Las Vegas, and the five police officers killed by a sniper in Dallas in July 2016, and the 49 killed by a madman in Orlando the month before that.
It’s too late for the 14 killed at a 2015 Christmas party by a radicalized terrorist in San Bernardino, Calif., and for three killed at a Planned Parenthood Center days before in Colorado Springs, Colo., by a man shouting “save the babies.”
It’s more than two years too late for 10 who died on a Roseburg, Ore., college campus who were asked about their religion before being shot.
