Vicious Cycle

Heat grows Frustration shows Temper glows Inhibitions go Gun unlocks Trigger cocks Legislative gridlock Future shock God waits Man hates Tempts fate Opens floodgates Man sins Murder grins Jungle din Death wins

Who can plumb the depths of their twisted minds? And would it help if we ever could untwist them? I'm for treating this like a public health crisis, much as we attacked smoking and drunken driving. Limit the opportunities, and just as importantly, remake the environments that nurture such killing. :) gw
