I can't wait until the part where we all don't talk about gun control and carry on as usual. Sigh.

EDIT: I see my post is being downvoted. I know that it may come across as insensitive to immediately leap to the gun control debate, but frankly I'm more angry than upset by this news. How many times does it have to happen? We have a good 48 hours of emotional outpouring and then everyone forgets it ever happened.

Well, why don't we bring it back to technology then?

Everyday on HN there's this drone about the next Instagram or 37 Signals. Or who will produce better email or flamewars regarding the next dominant mobile OS. Time wasted, honestly (Oh yeah, 'I figured out project management, again.')

Where's the debate on HN on how best to handle gun control in the U.S. using technology? Can this community not produce answers for those questions?

Because its worthless to focus on what they used when finding out why and working on brain chemistry and mental health research using technology would be so much more beneficial to society.

I wasn't clear. I'm not suggesting that gun control is the answer, simply that we can use technology to address and understand how this happens.

I agree, using technology to understand brain chemistry and further mental health research is a step forward.
