I know it's splitting hairs, but particularly Democrats and the anti-gun people are saying that this proves that guns" are to blame for the massacre, Espinosa said. "And while it is a horrible tragedy that no one should ever have to experience, they shouldn't be able to shape it into their own political agenda by covering up the facts."shootingSacha Zimmerman
