*hugs* We have to have a conversation about guns, mental illness, and violence. I am beginning to despair of how much violence we are feeding into our brains via entertainment. We are poisoning the collective ocean of unconsciousness.

That shooting happened here. For what it's worth....that neighborhood is a notorious den of illegal drug activity. Growing, cooking, selling. Obviously, going on a rampage is a sickness....but I have no idea what was happening in his house or the neighbor's house. I can predict that it wasn't anything good. Or wholesome.

I wondered if it was near you. So terrible. It sounds like, okay I killed some people I hate, now I will just kill everyone else I see. Kill them all. Find some easy targets (kids) and kill them. All the grief and pain. Unfathomable.

I feel sorry for kids growing up - it must be very scary now. I imagine if I should die now, randomly, it wouldn't be so bad but what young people must think and feel about life - it must seem much more frightening to them.

I was going for something hopeful I think - after the disturbances pass things can go back to normal. But the disturbances seem to be getting greater and greater don't they?

I hadn't heard that quote before - it's a good one.
