It's hard to continue life as usual when news of the aftermath of the Las Vegas shooting is all we can think about. No matter what you think about the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution, surely there's got to be a way we can stop these horrific events. Think about it, and then do something.

Where to Donate to Harvey Victims (and How to Avoid Scams). photo via NPR NYTimes Coverage NPR coverage Houston Chronicle coverage, especially the article Hurricane Harvey: How to help victims of the Texas storm
