put back to it's restless slumber regarding the epidemic of gun violence by more of the usual deflections and mass administration of sleeping potions of propaganda transmitted by the mass media?

If Americans are NOT more terrified of domestic gun violence that foreign terrorism then America needs to put out a travel warning advisory for the rest of the world not to enter until they are finished with killing themselves.


Why would ISIS bother with wanting to kill and terrorize a few Americans when they are doing an excellent job of it, 30000 deaths and 100000 soundings a year at untold financial and mental expense - like clockwork, without their help?
