Well
thats the 64 million dollar question on everyone's lips today isn't it?
I mean--
in the last 72 hours, we have had two gunman open fire on innocent people for
no reason whatsoever, and the results are families grieving for the lost of
their loved ones.
It
didn't happen in our back yard, it didn't happen to me, it didn't touch me--
really? it didn't? EVERY time someone takes a number of lives, be it in
Columbine, Colorado, or at Virginia Tech University, or Austin, Texas (1966
Texas Tower Shooting) or today in Newtown, Connecticut, we are touched!
A Luby's
restaurant, a man walks in and opens fire in central Texas, or at Fort Hood a
couple of years ago, a Army Major, opens fire and killing innocent people. Mass
Murders in a single day, we know about the shooting at a Movie theater not too
long ago, and yet the same argument is being spewed over and over again, about
gun control.
This is
not the time to make this a political argument! This is not the time to make a
statement about who should or should not carry a gun! THIS IS A TIME TO MOURN
and GRIEVE!
There
were five year olds shot and killed today, there were adults that lost their
lives, because they were in that school building, as they should, to teach our
young and make them into promising adults in the their future!
THEIR
FUTURE!-- it was snuffed out by a bullet, and by a man, who, for whatever
reason, decided that it was the best thing for him to do is go and shoot up
children, and end their lives, and their hopes and destroy their families!
SOMEONE DIDN'T THINK ABOUT THE CONSEQUENCES!
All they
could think about, was destruction, and the end results is this! There are dead
bodies now that have to be identified and claim by loved ones, then there are
memorials and funerals to plan, and there is the Christmas tree with the
unopened presents under it, or the last few nights of Hanukah, where candles
will be lit but no one there to enjoy the light flickering into the night!
Innocence
is lost, shattered, and hopes and dreams dashed. All because someone was angry,
snapped, and thought that this was the only way out!
IF you
are that angry, and you are that hurtful, and you wish to end your life, then
be selfish and just do it to yourself! I do not condone suicide, believe me, I
have walked that thin line! But it is a selfish act, to do that, but why take
others lives with you! Why is it necessary to bring someone else into your
little chaotic world! LEAVE THEM ALONE! they did nothing to put you in that
state, they did nothing to harm you, and yet you have decided to choose them to
die at your hand because you're pissed off, and depressed and think that this
is the only way out!
May G-d
have mercy on your soul, and may he embraced those angles coming to him in the
form of innocent children, and may they find their wings to protect those of us
still here and mourn their lives, and pray for the peace that their families
need, and keep them safe- Their Christmas wreath will turn to black instead of
green this time of year, but it is with the spirit of the season that we hope
that joy and smiles will once again return to the faces of those left behind,
including the children that were saved, and hopes that they will not live this
nightmare again!
Let us
all hope and wish for PEACE ON EARTH and GOODWILL TO ALL!
Just a
thought
