I could go on a complete diatribe, but just off the cuff:
-I've never looked at kids on TV, even in crisis situations like I do now that I'm a father. I see my little man in every one of those kids and it breaks my heart
-That piece of shit was an absolute coward. You want to destroy other peoples' lives, don't take the easy way out by putting a bullet in your own head.
-While some additional gun precautions may be necessary in some states, I just wish everyone on their soapbox right now would face reality and accept the truth that if someone wants to obtain a gun to commit a crime, they will.
-Some FB friends and I had a bit of a conversation on FB today. We're all adults, but pretty well jokers and smart asses. The comments were almost unrecognizeable from our usual comments. Vulnerability, honest and pain for those that were touched by this tragedy and hope that we'll never have to deal with such a thing ourselves.
So, hug your kids a little tighter and love them even more. Realize how lucky you are, and be well CP.
