Avalon - Did thoughts and prayers for the victims of the Columbine High School mass shooting do anything to prevent the Virginia Tech mass shooting? Did thoughts and prayers for the victims of the Virginia Tech mass shooting prevent the slaughter of innocent children at Sandy Hook Elementary School? Did thoughts and prayers for those children and their families stop the massacre at Pulse nightclub in Orlando? Congress' failure to do anything to stop these repeated atrocities, and the casual acceptance of them by the NRA and gun advocates, constitutes a depraved indifference to the loss of human life.
