Sorry, folks. I want to get back onto the subject of this thread. This horrible incident. I almost hate to turn on the news anymore. Sometimes I wish I lived back when we didn't even have radios, TV, computers...and only heard the bad news in our neighborhoods - where we could do some good and maybe help.

I get so angry myself, and often very caught up in the hype of things, like the goings on for the past 24 hours in Atlanta. All I wanted to hear was that the guy was caught and that it ended. I had to remind myself to think of the victims and the sorrow of the reality of what was the worst about the story.

But, now we learn of new families of the people who have died today at the hands of this gunman, oh how they must be suffering. I am trying very hard to keep it in perspective and focus on what great losses have occured. My heart goes out to them. I have felt tragedy in my own life, and I know the healing hurts and takes a long time. I pray for their peace and comfort.

"I have felt tragedy in my own life, and I know the healing hurts and takes a long time. I pray for their peace and comfort."

This is a profound tragedy and all of our prayers are warranted at this time.

The victims ranged in age from low teens to sixties according to the Brookfield Police Chief press conference.

The next press conference is scheduled at 5:10 PM CST. I would expect the MSM to piggyback this event with the Georgia episode.
