My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world. Jack Layton

My Two Cents
This is all I am going to say about the shooting in Arizona. When someone who is clearly suffering from untreated schizophrenia is placed in a culture that a) fetishizes guns and b) has a history of settling political arguments with same, you are bound to have incidents like yesterday's. The young man says more about America, as America, than any one constituent political part.
