Another gun massacre in America (At least 59 killed in Las Vegas shooting rampage, more than 500 others injured); another national mourning (Trump orders flags fly half-staff); another wasted opportunity with meaningless hand-wringing; another wait for the next massacre to occur - not whether, but when and where in America; perhaps if it will even set another new record in terms of the number of total deaths!
