The husband of Irma Garcia, one of the two teachers killed in the slaughter at Robb Elementary School, has died. It appears his death was brought on by grief at the death of his wife.

- Now That We’re At Peak, How Fast Will Civilization Collapse Be?Last week I wrote an article about the future of civilization, collapse centered around a graph from “Limits To Growth.” I spent a fair bit of time staring at this graph yesterday, and I want to return to it, because it says some very important things about what’s coming up over the next decades.

I first thought that the focus on the police response was a typical NRA-based distraction, but it seems that it is a big story, the police deliberately did not go into the building for many minutes, threatened parents from going into the building and trying to do something, while they searched for their own children in the school to save them. It does not change the absolute need to change gun laws, but it also shows that the ‘good guys with guns” are perhaps sometimes not so good, and are more interested in saving themselves and their own children than in fulfilling the requirements of their job. Of course, who wants to go into a building trying to contest a person with one or multiple assault rifles; we might see a dropoff in people signing on for that kind of work, and then what will the Republicans say about the gun violence issue?
