Thank you so much for your comprehensive and considered analysis of the DOJ Report on the Uvalde school shooting. This travesty could obviously have been so much less tragic with competent response, in contrast to the incredibly incompent response. Of course, such incompetency re firearm safety happens everywhere, from poor political response from our legislators re firearm safety to ignoring the precursor signs that we saw in the Lewiston shootings regarding Mr. Card and the New Hampshire Hospital shooting and killing of a police officer by Mr. Madore. I authored an Op-Ed re those shootings entitled “When will we ever learn?” No matter all the knowledge we have about firearm shootings, the obstacles to making progress seem always to be elusive given the power of the opposition to making thechanges that are needed.

Nevertheless, I am so impressed by your work on school shootings.
