Thanks for your input.

I actually do have a sense of humor, a pretty good one I like to think. I guess my post was a knee jerk reaction to being on the phone this morning calling to check to see that my child and other family members were home and safe. The fact that noone else has been injured or worse is a miracle.

Just wondering, I wasn't on FR at the time of the DC shootings. Did people make inappropriate, lame jokes during that situation as well, and was it acceptable?

We make inappropriate jokes all the time. It's the way we deal with a lot of things. No one intends on being crass but sometimes it does get a little touchy. Most mean no harm.

Most jokes were made about the police chief or the fact that they were sure it was a white guy in a white van.

But the seriousness was not lost on most. I think for today's thread all folks see is the headline, a car was shot and that is what they are responding to.
