A Raid on the Unspeakable

[coeur_de_lion]

35. I would like to be able to say something profound or meaningful about this tragedy

But all I can do is cry. About the loss of life and the loss of innocence.

I think Obama is on it . . . I think some legislation will be passed that hopefully prevents more Sandy Hooks.

But even then all I will want to do is cry about it.

I think this incident is absolutely the worst thing to ever happen in my lifetime.

I can't turn on the news without crying.

It's so awful. I can think of a dozen stories that made me cry like a baby.

The teachers who tried to protect the children and died curled up with them. The 6-7 yo kids who had to run past the body of their dead teacher to escape the building. Who sat in a man's driveway until he came home to give them juice and stuffed toys and call their parents. The grateful parents who came to pick them up, and the broken hearted parent who hoped her child was there but he wasn't.

The beautiful bright souls who were snuffed out because some crazy kid lost his mind and had to hurt people. The mother who thought it was okay to teach her mentally disturbed son to shoot automatic weapons . . .

What kind of hell has this country turned into. Unspeakable. Unspeakable. I don't sleep and I don't eat much this week. These are not my kids . . .. but in a way they are all of our kids.

Not going to ramble on anymore this just breaks my heart too much.
