When I'm 64 comments earlier..."What's SAD is this opinion piece. Because of a mentally deranged middle age man, 59 great Americans are dead, many in hospital, some might not make it. And you folks want to blame the guns and Republicans/Conservatives. Shame on you, the dead haven't even been buried yet. Blame the mentally deranged MAN. He killed, if he didn't use guns he would have found another way, bombs, truck, knives, machetes, he was hell bent on going out and he wasn't going alone."

There will always be one more to bury "When I'm 64".  The shooter was 64 and is in the count of your 59 great Americans including 4 Canadians...let's hope no more!  From October 2nd to 4th 2017 there have been at least another 289 shootings in the USA with 60 more dead to be buried and 143 injured, the latter including Geraldine Botka 67 shot in the leg by her husband Richard 72 while partridge hunting. No mention in the Maine Sun Journal whether Geraldine called Richard a Dick, a Cheney or a Moron!
