But Damnit!

When will some organization (legal or otherwise) finally publish the pictures of the aftermath of these shootings?
The Viet Nam war was largely accepted until the public finally started seeing pictures of the both the dead American soldiers, and the ones who survived with the horrific wounds inflicted by these weapons designed for mass killings.
I understand that this will invade the grieving family's privacy. I understand that this will reopen many wounds that family and friends of the deceased may be moving past. Believe me, I wish them no more pain.
But I also wish that this never happen to another person in this country, ESPECIALLY children.
Put the proof of the violence WE allow daily in front of the masses. I believe that only THAT will force those in power to actually face down the ones who put profit before humanity.
