Well said, Neo. It’s sad to see Americans – yet again – using a common tragedy as an excuse for attacking each other. So many people seem to lack any sort of self-awareness, the ability to stand outside themselves for a moment and watch their own behavior and hear their own words. If they did, they’d see very little difference between their own heated rhetoric and that of their political opponents. Even then, they would probably claim that THEIR rhetoric is fully justified while everyone else’s is inflammatory lies.
I’m afraid it will take something worse than the Tucson shootings to shock people out of their self-centeredness and force them to see the harm they’re doing to themselves and their country.
