And sometimes when we do get answers they are not enough.<br /><br />Life is fragile and none of us know when it may be our final day, hour, minute in this world.<br /><br />As a Christian I try to live a life that honors God. Many times it is His love and strength that lifts me up. <br /><br />I pray that the victims, their friends and family, and the law enforcement agencies, find answers and peace. And I pray for justice.Sincerityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12135778203560012397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6930223252966474185.post-6484224428546521622012-07-22T12:38:51.172-04:002012-07-22T12:38:51.172-04:00Another senseless tragedy.

I would like to believe it. But sometimes REALITY is more SCARY than the music, video games, tv shows and movies that portray so much violence to our children. They say anyone can snap. But when you've bought 6000 rounds of ammunition, intentions are clear. Why didn't that show up in a database somewhere??? It is curious what he was studying at the time. Perhaps on some level, he sensed the madness within? Such a senseless tragedy. Too many hurt. Too many dead. My heart aches for each and every one of them and their families.

My prayers go to the victims and their families. I'd like to know "who" called him on his cell right before the tragedy. xoBarbara F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05650730931602700042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6930223252966474185.post-72165851712576923932012-07-21T10:29:46.874-04:002012-07-21T10:29:46.874-04:00What in the world is happening to us - I am prayin...What in the world is happening to us - I am praying. sandieChatty Cronehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02232040517217024681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6930223252966474185.post-31324040285539079152012-07-21T10:14:48.053-04:002012-07-21T10:14:48.053-04:00His certainly was an interesting article!
