December 25, 2012 12:00 am

With the tragic event that took place in Connecticut, I find it rather ironic that I live in a community that celebrates a movie about a kid wanting a gun for Christmas ("A Christmas Story"), displayed right next door to a permanent museum dedicated to a notorious murderer (John Dillinger). Just something to think about.
