"This is the price of freedom," Bill O'Reilly.
My warmest condolences and sympathies to the victims and families,” Donald Trump.
Our thoughts and prayers go out,” Almost Everyone

You shall not murder,” God, Exodus 20:18
So faith by itself, if it has no works, is dead,” James 2:17

How long will you assail a person, will you batter your victim, all of you, as you would a leaning wall, a tottering fence?” Ps. 62:3

How long will we continue to view random killings of innocent people as the price of freedom?
How long will we continue to offer nothing more than condolences, thoughts, and prayers?
How long will we continue to pray for the dead rather than protect the living?
How long will we continue to refuse to put our faith into action?
How long will we continue to assail and batter those we deem unworthy and/or expendable?

How long?
