Oh My God!

I was stunned.  I have friends in Tucson.  I had to call them immediately.

WTF is wrong with the people in this country.  Suddenly the only way to express themselves  is with violent outbursts and gunfire? 
  1. Someone in the gallery shouts out about President Obama's patronage during the reading of the Consitution in congress.
  2. Several people have shouted out at legislators as they conduct townhouse meetings - some of them having to be removed.
  3. A man picks up a gun and uses it against people who have done nothing to him.
People died!  He killed 6 people.  One of them was 9 year old Christina Greene.  She was born on 9/11.  She was an honor student and had nothing to do with any of the issues the gunman had problems with.

Good God!  WTF was he thinking?  This is how we address issues?   We can't even talk like adults anymore?  We have to pick up arms against anyone who disagrees with us?

And, please remember that not all gun owners are like this.  I would never pick up any of my guns and use it in this manner.  I would never point a gun at anyone.  I would never use my guns to settle an argument.

If you are in the Tucson area and attended the event, please post and let us know you are alright.
Thank you.

I need to go cry again now.
