I do not understand.

Is the point of reaching this age watching terrible events repeat themselves like this?

I can remember the deaths of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy. Vividly.

When JFK was killed, the whole world shut down and the television never stopped reporting the news on all three channels.

The most telling thing about this shooting in Arizona is that I haven't turned on the television. Not once. Don't need to. Don't want to.

Don't think I'm going to get the truth or anything newsworthy if I do.

And that, my friends? Is the saddest stroke of all.
