If you live in Washington, New York, Seattle or San Francisco, it might be nice to bring some flowers to their consulates to express sympathy for their national pain today.

Anybody near DC, NYC, Seattle or San Francisco might consider dropping off some flowers.

No Russian Embassy in Chicago, so I'll send to D.C.

If they could read English, I'd encourage them to destroy the source from which Islam emanates...Mecca.

Flowers are a lovely gesture

AND

We should do more....

Prayer vigils, candlelight vigils.

These poor heartbroken families need to know that we care.

Thanks Travis. There, but for the grace of God, goes us.

I have a great deal of sympathy for the family and friends of these victims, and the officals are going to get skewered for doing what they had to do.

Thank you, Travis.

This hits my family really hard. My niece started school this year. She was born six years ago, 200 miles from where this happened. My wife made two trips to this region with her sister in 2000 and brought back many good memories and pictures of these kind people. Each picture of this horror seems a twisted warping of those photos.

My SIL is having to guard to TV closely - my neice knows she's from Russia. I dread the day when she learns of this and is old enough to put the pieces together with the other facts that will rob her of her childhood - she was born on 11 September ...

May God bring comfort to these Russian families. Our prayers are with them.

A lovely gesture!!

From the looks of the children it seems to me that they could use food and medical supplies as well.


This is such a heartbreaking story.

Sending prayers for all the families touched by these evil monsters.

Looks like a worthy charity. I just donated. I hope that everyone who reads this will consider donating. All of the money goes to the orphans, injured children and their caretakers.

Thanks for the info. I was just telling my family I would like to get in touch with the consulate and then found your thread.

This story is so horrible I can't even watch much coverage of it.

Strange, coming from a true crime aficionado, I know. But this one is just too heartbreaking!
