Many people are passionate about gun control and that will always be what registers first for them. But even if we agree to disagree, how can anyone's first take on a tragedy of this magnitude not be, "we need to do something about Islamic terrorism?"
Islamic terrorism is what this is about. After that, we can discuss gun control. But could anyone doubt that this particular cockroach, if he couldn't get guns, wouldn't have planted a few bombs? Or the low-tech hurling of a few molotov cocktails? He was on a holy mission and he would have done something horrendous using whatever tools he could find.
Be for gun control: it's your right, but talk about it after we assign responsibility where it belongs.
