Gun Show Week Wraps Up - With Body Bags

It's been a big week for the American gun show circuit.  Five people were wounded from accidental gun discharges at three U.S. gun shows.  The Shot Show gala, 2013, in Las Vegas set an all-time attendance record.  Brownells reported it sold 3.5-years worth of large capacity assault rifle magazines in just three days.

And, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, police have a 15-year old in custody charged with the shooting and killing of five people, three of them children.  The accused is said to have used a number of firearms, including an assault rifle.

Bernalillo County sheriff’s deputies said that they were called to the 2800 block of Long Lane Southwest to investigate a possible homicide around 9:15 p.m. Saturday. Responding deputies found a man, a woman and three children inside the home, all of whom had been shot multiple times.

The country has come unhinged.

Tremendous anger out there. Understandable but still scary.
Literally driving people crazy.

Anger, from whom, over what? Just what do you think is driving people crazy?
