Judging from that photo upthread...of all the Amish men surrounding the boys who escaped...we do not have to blame them. They are blaming themselves already...for something no one could ever have foreseen or prevented.
Every man in the photo is hanging his head.
God be with them. They are strong folks, but who among us has the strength to bear something like this?
God, I hope they do not blame themselves.
Only through the Lord's power, Palladin. Without Him, none of us has the strength to deal with the depth of pain and loss they are dealing with right now.
