Calm Your Populace, and Reduce the Mass Killings

  If you would calm your populace, you would reduce the mass shootings -- reduce the killings, period.
  If you would be a more gentle nation, you would not know so much violence.
  Here is a secret, perhaps: Those who kill are merely striking back. They become hurt, and they hurt in return. I say it is a secret, because we don't hear tell, when a mass murder is committed, that the assailant felt hurt, or had been offended, or that he was lashing back at society for injustices perceived.
   At least, not much of the discussion, not much of the investigation covers this.
  So, if you were to reduce all the mass shootings, what should you do?
  Calm your nation.
  Seek out those irrationally fearful, and teach them there is nothing to fear.
