I haven’t said anything about the shooting in Buffalo, or the church in Orange County, or any of the mass shootings last week that didn’t seam to make it into the national news. Not just haven’t said anything on social media. I haven’t said anything at all. Because anything I tried to say would come out as a scream. I am struck dumb - I have no words.

“When wilt thou save the people?
O God of mercy, when?”

I woke up this morning with the song from Godspell in my head. In hours of wakefulness last night, I had gone online and saw the news. Yet another shooting yesterday. Gilroy last week, then El Paso, then Dayton.
