In the wake of mass shootings in Texas and Ohio, we need to remember that the Second Amendment still protects us against the greatest killer of all: government. The change in our society shouldn't be about guns; it needs to be about morality. We've reverted to a neo-paganism that devalues human life, leaving us more open to mass shootings. Lastly, I suggest that simply being kind may be something of an antidote to the alienation that seems to drive some shooters.
