Mass shooting in Colorado: 'The Joker' Rises

Few days back, i read an incredibly well written novel by Jodi Picoult - Nineteen Minutes. The main story is about a mass shooting in a high-school. Apparently the shooter was a bullied victim since he was in kindergarten. The plot went very well with so much conflict and question marks. I was amazed to realize that in such a short time - nineteen minutes - so many things could happen.

Well, that WAS before I read another story. A real-life one.

This time, in less than TEN MINUTES, this one guy who called himself The Joker had killed 12 people & injured 59 others including a 3-month-old baby! Oh myyyy.. I was seriously speechless. Before, i thought the novel was awesome, but this is a real event we are talking about! Here's a quick summary I found:

As u can see, it took only ten minutes for the police to arrive, and that would mean the whole shooting took LESS than ten minutes?? Less than ten minutes was all he needed to take 12 lives. Less than ten minutes, that would never ever turn back..

Yes, the shooter had been arrested. Yes, undoubtedly he will get the highest punishment. But hey, who are we kidding? Even giving him thousand years sentence nor a death row sentence wouldn't make the dead less deader, wouldn't they?? I strongly think that it's the easy-access to harmful weapon is the main concern here. Sigh.

To the families of the victim, I'm so sorry for your loss. My heart truly go out for those who involved. :'(
To the law authorities (not only in US but all countries), please do something to avoid people buying guns like they are buying a bloody cigarettes.
To the so-called Joker, I wish u'll get the highest punishment ever.
