GEE, what happened Peter, did someone wake you from Rip Van Winkle syndrome? Yeah, I get it...I've seen it countless times before, never let a tragedy go to waste and not be politically exploited or spun. Use grief as a weapon, the heck with the families. That's the new norm from "political strategists", a despicable lot. Let's try a little context and history lesson to put your "thoughts" into the light of day...

"Our nations gun laws are broken"...No they aren't...Too often, they are ignored, not followed to the letter of the law, the follow up is woeful or non existent and the consequences are MIA...Amendments needed, sure..Stricter laws? I give you Chicago...

"Our mental health system is broken"...We agree on something...It has been broken since the days of "Titicott Follies" and LBJ's "great society" program of DE-institutionalization...turn many loose on an unsuspecting public, many with very serious mental health issues. Good luck getting politicians to wrap their hands around this issue, take a courageous stand, and offer real solutions.

You say you are filled with emotion, "Sadness, Heartbreak, Sorrow, Anger, Frustration." So am I. I feel all of those when I look at your job performance. The guy Kettle is in the headlines, what about the second part of the Gallison case? What happened to the indictment, sealed, unsealed, disappeared? Was there trafficking of minors going on inside the State House? Was this the media getting out over their skis, then running away from the story? WHAT?

The Montanaro debacle...5 signed affidavits stating there was no lapse in full-time employment at RIC, there was, and $50,000 in benefits obtained, he gets a schedule of payments for 10 years?

The worst scarlet letter that can be attached to a prosecutor is "failed to prosecute".

So while I am outraged and will mourn for the victims families, I am equally outraged at the FBI's lack of "FOLLOWING UP" on the information provided to them about this coo-coo clock being a ticking time bomb..."See something, say something"...Yeah right, another empty slogan. Just retire to Florida Petey, your political career is finished here.
