To the editor:

How can anyone imagine the grief of parents and grandparents sending their young child to school in the morning and then identifying them in a morgue that evening?

Guns aren't sentient. The gun didn't walk into the school and start killing children of its own accord. The solution is and always has been to address the emotional and mental health problems that cause individuals to become so detached from society and from reality that they decide to shoot innocent people. Banning guns is a band-aid for the symptom and willful ignorance of the disease.
