US television has turned the tragedy in Colorado into a reality show. Every station I tune in features the governor or the mayor congratulating himself and his colleagues on what a great job they did in the aftermath of the shooting. Just watched the mayor of Aurora introducing his entire city council. Why? What for? Last night watched the governor making a speech and actually.......actually..........cracking a few jokes! It was unreal.
You know those "cringe" moments, when you want to hide under the chesterfield, there have been way too many about this mess. How could the shooter have so many guns and rounds? Well, that's the good, old American Rifle Association for you.
In Canada, tragedies such as this -- albeit on a smaller scale -- are handled by the police chief, not by politicians.
So unserious.
