Yesterday, the world was stunned, sickened and shocked by a horrific and senseless act of violence in Newtown, CT. I can't even begin to put into words the disgust and horror I felt when I heard that a freaking psycho had opened fire in an elementary school, and killed more than two dozen people, the majority of which were tiny, innocent, helpless children.
I still don't know what to say. I can't even begin to imagine the depths of the sadness that these families are feeling. It's just too tragic to even comprehend.
When will it end? When is enough, enough? I don't even know what we can do as a society to stop these unthinkable things from ever happening again. All I know is, guns scare the living crap out of me, and while people say "guns don't kill people, people kill other people" you have to think that if these people didn't have access to these guns, could they still do the same damage? I know it is not quite as simple as that. I wish it was. But we need to do something, anything, to make sure our children can attend school and feel as safe as we all did growing up.
And while I am not normally the praying type, thats what I will be doing for Newtown. With all that I have. Because I'm not sure what else to do.
So unbelievably heartbroken for Newtown.
