A roundup of editorials Tuesday suggest we should grieve before we start the conversation about gun control, and that conversation may not be one you want to hear.

Opinions from the Right:

1. The face of unmitigated evil on the Las Vegas Strip 

From The Las Vegas Review-Journal: What seems to always happen somewhere else happened in Las Vegas late Sunday night, and the city will never be the same.

2. Gun control in Europe is almost total. It hasn't stopped mass shooting attacks like Las Vegas

From Fox News: All the gun control you can put into place will stop someone intent on violence.

3. Sympathize and mourn before politicizing an evil act

From the Deseret Sun: There will be time for finger pointing and calls for stricter gun control measures, but that can wait until after we care for the victims and families.
