I really don’t get it.

Nobody does, and nobody should for if they did, they would have to be insane...

Justice will not come soon enough.

What is "justice" anymore? The longer I live, the more I see that the very concept of justice has been eroded, diluted, or otherwise mis-shapen into something unrecognizable by anyone who ever understood justice...

Such a sad commentary on our lives, our country, and our times...

By the way, I just cannot look at that poor little girl's picture... Every time I do, the face morphs into the face of one of my granddaughters, and my heart goes numb...

I agree all around. Sometimes we wish we could make sense of it so we could come up with a solution. Unfortuantely, some people are so far gone, it does defy explanation and any ability to prevent what takes place.

As for looking at pictures, I doubt you even have to, to think of the kids in your family that this could just as easily happen to.

We never know what might happen.

I've always taken a kind of consolation in the fact that "Vengeance is the Lord's". If it's not taken care of here, it will be taken care of in the hereafter.

Sometimes I think (in fact, most of the time), that we have gotten way too hung up on the “concept” of justice, whether it can be administered fairly and impassionately.

In a way, we can’t see the forest for the trees.

If these guys were rabid dogs, we would have no trouble taking care of the problem real quick.

Our indecision has emasculated us. Our quest for a perfection we can never reach has put our women and children at serious risk.

Sometimes we need to put aside all the lawyering (whose purpose, just about everybody has to admit, is to confuse us) and grow a pair and just do what needs to be done.
