They love to portray themselves as heroic, it sounds great in the echo chamber.
Hypocrites they are if they have armed security but criticize the same for schools. I am thankful to look at the bright side that at least it wasn't a school this time.
Seems to me the congressional attempted atrocity was right after school let out last year, suggesting that they have to pick other targets in the summer and on vacations. San Berdoo happened right before Xmas, if I remember.
