Words cannot express the feelings I have right now. I’m
somewhere between pissed and rageful and numb. I understand there is an order
of things and people die but why is today’s world so cruel. My aunt was the
victim of a drive by shooting. She did not survive. This happens just days
after a madman goes into an elementary school and goes on a killing spree. WHY?
What is it that makes people think it is ok to take a life? What’s worse is
that crime happens so often that society is becoming desensitized to such acts.
Acts that effect the country at large. While I did not know any of the children
the thought that it can happen to my own daughter will make me hug her a little
tighter and not care that she is trying to stay up past her bedtime. Some
people who did not know my aunt will think twice before standing outside (which
is very sad). They will give the slow approaching car a second and maybe third
glance. See crime hurts everyone. Not just the immediate victims and their
families but everyone. It reminds us that one any given day at any school, on
any street bad things are possible…
RIP Louise Carter, and all the new baby angels from Newtown…
