• Tom Nichols on Twitter: "I can't stand post-shooting Twitter, but the different-yet-same shooters in El Paso and Dayton are making me try one more time.

• The Revenge Of The Lost Boys — What’s going on with young American men? Another mass shooting has led to another round of social and political recriminations.
