At the time the largest mass shooting in U.S. history; and who should be there but two very successful young men, celebrating their birthdays on the same day, with dreams of travelling the world.

"Somehow this has become routine! The reporting is routine, my response, here at this podium ends up being routine, the conversation in the aftermath of it, we've become numb to this.
